Little voice in my head says:
‘If it’s beautiful, it’s probably your imagination.’
Victor Goh’s guide on how to write/compose a CHART-TOPPING hit song.
Step No.1
Think of a completely random word/phrase, OR an overused, cliched word/phrase.
Step No.2
In your own head, just think of a simple beat/tune. Maybe add a little bit bass to it, some special effects and stuff. All achievable with AutoTune or Audacity.
Step No.3
Now, refer to Step No.1, and use your desired word/phrase, throw in your beat/tune, and REPEAT the damn word throughout the whole song.
Simple as 1,2,3.
Don’t believe me?
What about Usher’s OMG?
‘Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh my gosh…’ (i kid you not, 11 oh’s)
Kesha’s Blah Blah Blah? Yea, that’s the chorus.
Justin Bieber’s Baby? (Baby baby baby OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH)
Sigh.
So easy to be a singer these days.
(ok la, maybe I’m exaggerating a bit. But really, most people just know that particular word/phrase of those songs. sigh)
