What does a Song consist of?

Question

well im a writer of course..i've written poems out of my @$$...i've been writing my book for about 7 months now..and im starting to even write for the screen...but one thing i havent tried yet is writing a song.

Now i know you need to rhyme, have an intro, chorus and bridge.

But how many bars does a song need in a single verse, the chorus and the bridge????

Answer 1

Unbeilevable, no one has an answer... I mean, is this seriously for real?lol...

i.e "you can write about difficulities or problems or nature-try it it'll be fun"lol WTF???

This has nothing to do with consistancy, & how many bars/ verses as compared to each chorus,lol...

& then how many all together,lol... Far out some people have no brians-if this is what they think it takes to be a lyricist as compared to a poet then seriously, there is a huge problem,lol...Aaaahhh!!!

So sorry you got such pathetic answers...God they were annoying & so sorry to waste your time.

I'm so sorry I can't help out more but this is what I know(& it's not much but still).

The song consists of a Verse, chorus, bridge, pre-chorus.

You start with the verse & I believe there are around 3 or 5 verses, each one is a brief example of the title.

The chorus of a song is done 4 times & can repeat itself or can be different, moreso like that of a poem. The lyric and melody remain the same each time it recurs.The chorus lyrics sums up the heart of the song. The title of the song almost always appears in the chorus section and may be repeated 2 or more times.

So sorry I can't tell you any more then this...
