I'm reading a post about independent music production, and there's a lovely little man giving me recommendations. He says that first I need to answer a few questions. I ran to grab my notebook, but instead decided to answer them here. I'm supposed to study the music that is popular right now, then provide my opinions. Here goes.
1. What makes this song catchy?
The beat, and the overall rhythm. The melody just hooks you in, and part of you believes the lyrics.
2. Why is this a hit?
It has the power to create emotions. People who feel ugly can suddenly see their inner beauty. They believe in themselves because the song tells them they can do anything
3. What makes the artist likeable?
He's genuine. He talks to his fans constantly, gives them advice. He has a special look that makes you want to follow him around like a puppy. You're able to make that connection with him, and you begin to feel like you know him.
4. Where will this song be 20 years from now?
Hopefully still playing. It has a catholic appeal.
I want to appeal to everyone. I want to inspire people, and I want my songs to ring in their little minds forever. I want a single note played randomly somewhere to bring them back to a special night where they heard my song and truly lived. So I guess I'm right on track with the music industry's ploys? ;D
Oh, if you don't like emoticons then I apologize. Sometimes my sarcasm is too dry and people can't understand, so I have to use emoticons to help my friends out a bit. If I don't, then they call me a bitch via Facebook. I'm just so accustomed to employing smiley faces 24/7 that I can't type any other way. YAY!
