Mark:

I see what you mean Mark. When writing my normal style of song I always spend a bit of time getting into the mindset of the character or event, but with a happy song, I don’t, as I assume that because I am happy, the words should come. Big wrong.

‘Acentuate the positive’.

I will remember that Mark..

You have given me a lot to think on in these comments and those further down the post.

Thanks so much for giving of your time

God Bless Roy

Thanks for adding to this topic.
Your first lyrics I did sing along in my mind, and my key was perfect (in my mind) hehe.

The 2nd lyrics I liked as well…

‘Could love be calling’… great line.

Thanks again and God Bless Roy


Doug

Thanks for you comments, always appreciated.

I tried your link and it says ‘no such song’

I think that I will try to be Jolly, if I can’t get jolly at this time of the year hohoho, then I have no hope hehe.

And I will Keep trying.

Thanks again and God Bless Roy


Gary:

You made some good pointes and some good pointers as well.

‘A happy song isn't just happy. It's happy about something, someone, a story, a situation, just like a sad song’

Thanks again and God Bless Roy
