We have a new acoustic set.

We have new songs.

They are still demos, some of the words are wrong, some don't make any sense, but still...

Face it, you will NEVER write songs like these :)

Where do lyrics come from? Do you need a particular place/situation to be able to write good lyrics?

Usually my words and music come together as I write things on my guitar. I start by picking some good chords either on the guitar or the piano and then I immediately think about a fitting melody. Then I start to sing gibberish trying to get a feeling of what it could all sound together. I slowly transform the gibberish into words that have the same lenght or "resonate" with what I'm singing.

If you start writing a song, you probably already have something on your mind that needs to get out so you just have to translate this buzz you are hearing. That's why I almost always start by choosing a theme, then a title and what the story/feeling of it will be.

Bad things happen when this doesn't work...! Like right now, but I'll get through it :)

Hey Voxers, how are you today?

I have the house to myself so I'm going to concentrate on writing some lyrics, I find it so much easier to do when there's no one around. You can relax, think about what you are trying to send out to your imaginary audience, open your heart and read the insides (how sentimental).

I should finish the lyrics for two of our new songs and start thinking about another one which is just beginning to see the light, birth due on tuesday (rehearsals day!). I'm so relaxed right now, I ate something, made some coffee and minutes from now I'm going to be in my bed writing. Inspiration is coming to visit... Again...!

I'm thinking about starting a group, maybe I'll look into it on the weekend...

Hey there Voxers,

I'm just back from rehearsals, I'm tired but happy. I don't feel like writing a long post right now, too tired and sleepy. I just wanted to let you know that we are keeping this blog and we'll try to post some interesting things about our lives and music.

And there's one thing I'd like to know... What are Voxers really looking for? What is your purpose here? Why are you here?

Please leave your answer :)
