That was funny.

Rules? there are no rules. There are however, suggestions.

Ones I like to follow on occasion....

1. Keep intros as short as possible .... not to exceed 13 seconds
2. Get to the chorus in under 1 minute.
3. Don't repeat key words.
4. Don't use cliches ever. Well, almost ever.
5. Be done or really close to it in 3:30 minutes. Less is more.
6. It's OK to totally disregard rules 1 thru 5 now and then.

That's a start for me.

You can find my music at:

Add nothing that adds nothing to the music.
You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
