0 LIKES UnLike

Does any one know of or have music that inspires them to write?

I'm writing a love story and I'm having writers block, but it's not the first time. Usually i just listen to a good song and the mental wall is gone, but I'm having a hard time finding such song.

Any help is welcomed. Thanks

  1. On my love story playlist (yes, I have one), the songs are:

    ****Before it's too Late -- The Goo Goo Dolls

    ****After Tonight -- Justin Nozuka

    *******************I Will Follow You into The Dark -- Death Cab for Cutie

    **The Scientist -- Coldplay

    *****Fix You -- Coldplay

    *****Clocks -- Coldplay (yes, I really like Coldplay)

    ****Oh it is love -- hellogoodbye

    ****Sweet and Low -- Augustana

    Like a Star -- Corinne Bailey Rae

    ****Light Up the Sky -- Yellow Card

    ******You're Not Alone -- Saosin

    Fidelity -- Regina Spektor

    *****Near to You -- A Fine Frenzy

    ******Starlight -- Muse

    Chasing Pavements -- Adele

    Hero/Heroine -- Boys Like Girls

    *******This Boy -- The Beatles (don't knock it till you try it. the Beatles have great love songs)

    Everything -- Micheal Buble

    Pictures of You -- The Last Goodnight

    Hey There Delilah -- Plain White Tees

    *****Stolen -- Lifehouse

    *****All You Need is Love -- The Beatles (but I'm actually talking about the Jim Sturgess version)

    Girl -- The Beatles (but again, try the Jim Sturgess version)

    The ones with stars are my favorite (and the sweetest).  I would reccomend listening to at least some of each song because they're all different and sweet in their own way. Hope you like them!!


  2. baby its fact- hellogoodbye

    oh it is love- hellogoodbye

    really good love songs!

  3. Keane- anything they write gives me goosebumps and it brings out a lot of emotions.

    These are some beautiful and inspiring love songs by them:

    "On a Day Like Today"

    "We Might as Well be Strangers"

    "Fly To Me"

    "A Heart to Hold You"

    "Try Again"

  4. Thunder - Boys Like Girls

    Accidentally in love - Counting Crows

    can't fight this feeling - Reo speedwagon  

  5. I don't really listen to music and write like you, but I can think of two songs that I really enjoy and that always sounded inspirational to me, perhaps especially for a love story.  Those two songs are:

    "Breathe Me" by Sia - This is perhaps the only song that I can listen to all day long and not get tired of it...

    AND

    "Gabriel" by Lamb - This is a beautiful song sung by a woman with a very unique voice...

    Best wishes!

  6. I listen to enya when i write. she is calming and you don't really have to listen to what is said to get the message so it isn't likely to distract you.

  7. Some of my favorites are (sorry, they're not all "happy" love songs, but there is a good variety):

    -Madi Don't Leave by PlayRadioPlay!

    -Pressure Suit by Aqualung

    -Nicest Thing by Kate Nash

    -Falling by Emmy Rossum

    -Favorite by Liz Phair

    -Such Great Heights by The Postal Service

    -The Moment I Said It by Imogen Heap

    -Dark Blue by Jack's Mannequin

    Sometimes, I'll randomly watch amv's on youtube to a TV show that I like with a good pairing - that gives me a good idea on songs. I hope I was able to help!
