Greetings, songwriters!
Let’s talk about iconic song lyrics for a moment – and I mean those lyrics that people sing back to you when you mention the title of a song.
Try it now with these hits: take note of the first words that pop into your head for each song. Ready? Go!
“More Than a Feeling”
“Friends in Low Places”
“Down the Road”
Even though all of these hits have multiple verses and each is easily 3:15 long, chances are pretty good that every one of you recalled the same song lyrics for each song! It’s almost certain those words were from the chorus. That’s just a testimony to the power of writing a strong chorus.
Keeping this experiment in mind when approaching a chorus can help you write more songs that people will sing back to you every time – which is a great feeling as a songwriter and artist.
Here are a few tips for ensuring your choruses pass the test of time:
I hope you’ll find these general song lyrics and chorus “rules” effective in creating unforgettable choruses for your new writing projects.
Keep writing!

There’s a disconnect between the way songwriters and performers create music. We’ve spent our entire lives in the music industry and have seen firsthand how difficult it is to pitch that song you’re so proud of AND we’ve seen how hard it can be to find great songs for that upcoming project. So, BuyDemoTracks.com was created to help change the way we write, create, and record music together forever.
It all starts with a great demo. Once we record your radio-ready demo, we’ll have a conversation with you about the next steps to achieve your goals as a songwriter.
