(1/?) To help break into country songwriting, it can be helpful to carve out a niche.
To become the "go-to" for certain types of tunes.
Here are some currently untapped ones:
(7/?) SPONSORED SONGS:
Become THE guy for securing in-song sponsorships.
Movies do it all the time - hell, the James Bond franchise is basically bankrupt w/o Heineken placements.
Get PAID to drop the name of that cold beer.
(6/?) FINANCIAL ADVISE SONGS:
So many country song subjects are down to their last dime. No money in their pocket. Waiting for payday to come.
Not yours!
Get a foot tapping over a tax bracket & you got magic.
(4/?) Not sure the "title" for this one, but basically: "You pissed me off, & I know Jason Aldean, & he's gonna come kick your ass!"
(3/?) SEQUEL SONGS:
Let others do the hard work for you.
Slap an "again" or "some more" at the end of various lines, give a couple points on your writing credits, & you've basically guaranteed a cut.
Cruise 2.
Take A Backroad... AGAIN.
(2/?) TUTORIAL SONGS
So many broken-down things in country songs.
Houses, tractors, trucks, etc.
Take advantage of that - how can listeners fix those? What tools are needed? Teach a man to fish, literally.
Something that won't ever leave me:
So the opening yell of "Crazy Train" ("All abooooooard, ha ha ha ha ha") is Ozzy Osbourne.
However, it also sounds exactly like @tomhanks
... why was Elvis at a party at the county jail in the first place?
The 50s were a different animal.
This clown @SenRickScott says we don't need bailouts bc the economy did "so well"...
Then links to 2 articles that literally say the economy did well JUST because of how much richer rich people got.
Don't take my word for it - read them yourself.
Rick, read your sources first
Facts are facts, unless you’re a Dem in DC. Data shows states are doing fine, but Dems are still pushing their radical plan to spend billions bailing out their friends in wasteful states. Dems need to snap back to reality & stop wasting taxpayer $. More➡️ bit.ly/3aabz2M
