intro to songwriting notes

lesson 1: song components

the verse:  the primary function of the verse is to provide the information that will lead the song's hook or title.
- each verse typically has the same music, melody, number of lines- and new lyrics

the chorus- the primary function of the chorus is to summarize the idea and emotion of the song in a general way and to reinforce the song's title.
- the chorus of a song typically has the same melody and lyrics each time it is repeated. It should be easy to remember (catchy) and should also include the title.
