Finally…some clarity!

Everything in here was very easy to understand for me as a project manager /lyricist with zero music production , instruments playing, and reading sheet music experience. I’m excited to add this knowledge to my song writing and music making tool box, so I can master my niche. Thank you.

Quick & to the point

I liked that it was quick & to the point. Great exercises. The author knew what he was talking about!

An Insightful Book For Beginner Song Writers

This book is a quick read, and detailed description of the way songs should be later out.

Short but sweet

Very nice introduction to songwriting... introduces all the theory and harmonic conventions to push those who have little to no experience forward. And for all levels, it's great to review the basics. The reader was clear and concise. Definitely worth the price of admission.

Just didn't dig it much.

(13 yrs experience) was not impressed with the subject matter. would not recommend for purchase.

Short but decent

I enjoyed have the book was structured. But I do wish it was longer with more examples. I would've liked some more breakdowns of actual popular songs and exercises to perform other than just a harmony and a simple poem. Would say it would be worth $1.50.

Great (and very short) introduction in songwriting

Great narration and written well. But really short and brief and mostly about writing lyrics. He goes blazingly fast over the other topics on writing a song (melody, chords, key, ...)

Great, concise and clear

This book is written in a simple way yet informative and educational. Just what I wanted. Straight to the point and easy to follow. If you are looking for guidance and a technical approach to songwriting, this is your guide. Worth every penny. Thanks

Narrator Doesn't Know Music

I'm not sure why this book is discussing theory in the first place, but I, IV, V chords should not be read as letters. They are Roman numerals, and should be read as numbers. It could only confuse a person new to music theory. Those that already know music theory likely think as I do that the narrator should have been informed about how to read that notation.

Composing

Great audiobook! I feel enlightened! Kudos! Thank you ! I feel Sean Levi did a wonderful job writing and Anthony C. Forsmafk narrated very well.
