My experience seems to be the same as Noel's.

I've spent over forty years in pro studios without hearing the phrase "pre-chorus" until about eight years ago. Suddenly, the words became fashionable with young people and then it seemed as if every song had to have one.

I don't think the music's changed, just the terminology.

ROG.



I'll echo that. Never heard it from a publisher. Getting back into writing in 2009 was my first time hearing it. It's just semantics by one of the teachers that caught on. I don't think it's changed anything other than terminology either.

Noel - As always, love reading your thoughts on songs - you spread more joy than any 12 of Santa's elves...

John - appreciate you stopping by for a listen and a comment. Yea, a good idea, once discovered, will often just "write itself".

Guenter - Thanks! So... how long did it take you to grow that beard???

This was really my point in mentioning it... (I know what it IS).
I've seen it brandished around - I've even seen people talk about their "pre-pre-chorus" and their "pre-bridge". I don't write song pieces. Verse, chorus, bridge. Seems plenty.

Rock and Roll!!

I played this today for family and friends and it was a hit for the holiday. Nothing but great comments from all my musician family and friends. So from my gathering today a big thumbs up for this floyd jane production. Good stuff said about the lyrics and the lead singer and the band. Oh, and Janice and I agree with them smile

Floyd,

As usual I enjoyed that. You certainly know how to produce a good song.

I’m late to the party and it’s all been said so all I can add is WOW this is good!


My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

Hi Floyd,

As far as I'm concerned, you are a hit maker.

The story of the song really grabbed me. Great hook, "with this I love Tammy tatoo".

Production is great too.

Thanks for sharing.

P,S, "Again... crank. it. up! (As LOUD as you can stand it!!!)", seriously lol.
