  1. "Music is enough for a lifetime, But a lifetime isn't enough for music."

  2. So I've been sick and lost my voice, I dot seem to be getting any better... And the worst part is that I havnt been able to sing for about a week. Does anyone know any ways for me to speed up the process of me getting my voice back? Please help .. I have a voice exam soon!
  3. Ok I'm only 14, but most of my time is spent on writing. I'd say that 20% of my lyrical writing is turned into an actual song. But it takes me a while. Sometimes I leave the lyrics alone for months and then come back to them to self edit them. And then finally find the courage to record them. But what usually happens is that I sit down with either my guitar or piano, and what ever melody comes to mind, is what im using. I believe that the best music comes Instantly. Because the instant melody is what your body wants to play.. So let it play it. [but that's just me] Um, to complete a song, the amount of time really differs. Depending on how strong my thoughts are in order for me to express them. Which is why I kinda like when drama happens. It gives me something to write about. I have been writing ever since I could write. Ahaha. Well when I was really little, Id sit and watch my dad write songs, which made me want to do it. So I'd say I've been writing since I was 8. I'm not saying I was writing GOOD at that age.. But I was writing. I'd say that I have stronger skills in writing lyrics. Because it comes so naturally. But once I have the lyrics, the music comes naturally aswell.
  4. Hey , I'm Melissa ! I'm 14 years old. And I like to write. Most of what I write isn't in the form of a song yet. It's more venting in rhyme than anything. But the way I do things is to write it down, Leave it for a month, then come back to it and change it up and turn it into a song. [then record it] So yeah, I know what everyone is gonna think.. " she's a fourteen year old wanna be " But I'm really not. I write because it's the only way I can express my self. Not because Im hoping to grow up and be some big time "super star". I write because it makes me happy. And The reason behind me joining this forum, is to get advice from others that are more expierienced . So yeah There ya go. And here is a sample of my writing. It's not the greatest but I'm hoping for help. Feel free to tell me it sucks if it does My thoughts flow pessimistically And I'll admit it's intentionally But the closest thing to me is my negativity . It teaches me not to depend on anyone but me Because to depend on others is to reveal your weakness. And to reveal your weakness is to hide your strength. But beneath the acrimony There's a bit of sweetness And behind the ignorance Is a bit of happiness Cause there's only so much One person can take Before that bitter souls Gonna break apart. Seeking a brand new start for their heart. Putting behind them their past Because their past didn't last. Ps. This whole thing was typed on my iPod. Sorry for any major typos. And this was copyrighted . *just sayin' <3
