Awesome, guys (and girls!) This is a cool thread. Creativity can be a tough cookie to crack sometimes. Hopefully we can give each other a helping hand :) And hopefully we get a Creative Diarrheoa :lol I'm loving that term. The one I came up with. Yeah, I'll go in history of TABN.com :lol Yeah. I'll...

And hopefully we get a Creative Diarrheoa I'm loving that term.

I could not even write a song in my own language! FML.

Yep. That's what I'm doing right now. filling one page. just words though. probably tomorrow I'll start phrases then short sentences. Now I know what I'm gonna do whenever I'm in a boring class. I usually draw but I'd rather do this now.

I am not actually filling a page on my notebook with words. Any word I can think of right? Like even it does not exist?

Alright, there it is.

I don't if it's in the right board, though. Here it is, the songwriting thread. We were discussing this kind of songwriting method at the "What are you watching now?" forum and it feels like it's going off topic, so might as well create one. :cheers EDIT: This is for all the writing enthus...

I usually start a lyric to a song, sometimes I finish it the same day I started writing, sometimes I finish it a day, a week or a month later. Depends on my inspiration, really. But I don't wanna force things down. When I don't feel like writing and find my inspiration dry, I just call it a day. Si...

I don't have trouble writing 'em. That's my passion. They're coming out easily, just like when you're having diarrhoea. :lol Damn! I wish it could come out of me just like that. Instead it tries to come out like a giant shit when it really just a pebble-small shit. teach me master :bow Maybe you ju...

I couldn't believe that we actually got into that battle of the bands! I'd say the audition was a complete trash but I think they have few bands to choose from that they had to get everyone. :lol I think we need to practice but we're very diverse in musical taste. I'm not saying that I'm better than...

I'm adding Ian Thornley to my top 10 but don't know where yet.

This is cool! The keyboard/guitar solo reminded me of Dream Theater.

Anyways, I'm a lyric writer, if that counts.

oh man, too bad. haha. I don't know if it counts. haha. but I, myself, am having a hard time in writing some lyrics. sometimes it just won't come out.

How are your progress as musicians? I've been playing guitar since I was 8 but I never focused much on that (I wish I had though) Whenever my uncle would visit our home he would teach me some songs but when he's away, guitar playing for me stops as well. Not until I was 15 that I actually tried pla...

All of you are amazing people and I wish you all the best. Public apology to AB23. I think this post is my fault. I thought something would be funny as a teasing inside joke, but there were circumstances I didn't know, and so it crossed the line and was hurtful. It wasn't meant that way, but that's...

Hello TABN!

Hope not. what happened, by the way?

In Steven Wilson's own words: '' The song is based on a story but one that wasn’t mine; it was suggested to me by the guy [Hajo Mueller] who was illustrating, doing the artwork and the book. The idea is about a couple driving along in a car at night, very much in love; the guy is driving, and his p...
