Hey songwriters...
    #7721946 -

Do you guys find that you get sick of your own songs before they're complete?

I always seem to start to hate my own arrangements and words before I have a whole song.  They get on my nerves like an overplayed radio song.

Maybe I play around with it too much :confused:

Not songs, but my writing in general..


--------------------
Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

Yeah I'm familiar with the feeling from writing words.

It seems to be worse with music because I have to keep replaying the passage to figure out a good meter and strumming pattern, etc.  I keep picturing my neighbors going "When is he going to give up on that stupid song?"

Could be a self-esteem issue :lol:

Hehe, yeah.  I find that if I'm trying to write riffs, they start to sound REAL corny about half-way through writing.  Ruins my flow, my mood, and my energy! :mad2:

EDIT:  WC - I think the same thing whenever practicing passages!  I guess it's not so bad :wink:
