Song Title

Before you can think about writing lyrics to a song you first need to know what you are writing about. One of  the best ways to do this is to come up with a song title. You want a title that is unique and can sum up the meaning of the song in a few simple words.

Coming up with the perfect title isn't always easy and can sometimes be harder than coming up with the lyrics. There are a few techniques that you can use. One of the most common ways of doing this is to grab a pre-existing title and switch the words around to make them sound unique.

A good example of this is Unbreak My Heart, the title of a song by Diane Warren, who simply took the title Break My Heart and added one little syllable.

Another way to find a great song title is to look at magazines and newspapers. Peruse them for eye-catching words and phrases, then write them down in a notebook. Then play around with them, rearranging words and letters.

You can also get inspiration from the words of other people, so pay attention to what others are saying around you. Maybe someday while you are eating your lunch, you will hear two people talking about something interesting and a title will immediately come into your head.

Don't be discouraged if it takes you some time to write the perfect title. Everything, including a song title,  takes time to perfect.
