Using School Experiences To Write Songs

by Margaret Walker
(Sydney, Australia)

I'm a 12 year old girl that loves singing and songwriting, I may not have written the best songs you've ever heard but I have written some quite good ones. My best songs have actually came from school, it's the main thing on my mind and being the unpopular girl I have a great perspective of what really happens at a public school. I may not be a very social girl but I at least know everybodys name and know what happens and that helps me write pretty good songs!

very good and I do the same
by: zakery paperboyppp@aim.com

I've been writing for about five years now and for three of them I've ben writing lyrics. I am a fourteen year old boy and have written hundreds of songs before. I agree school is an amazing way to get ideas. About crushes, about cheating or a hard test, about sexy teachers, or some who make your skin crawl. School is a great place to figure out a new song, though you can find ideas in everything you do.

So awesomeee

I like this boy, right and he is going out with this other girl who is only going out with him to annoy me. I think he likes me but my friend says that he wanted me to ask him out. The other girl is the prettiest most popular girl in school and she eats boys for breakfast! If you can write a song about it than that would be great coz i kinda lost my spark... email the lyrics at bluekangaroo22@hotmail.co.uk! Thanks so much.. im 12 btw!! V.v. good advicee theirr x
