Finishing Your Project

You may think you have the components of the song, ask yourself these final questions to see if you can improve your song in any way?

• Does your song build and get more interesting as it goes through?
• Could you add some riff to energise the song?
• Does your song have a hook? A short phrase or piece of music that sticks in the mind.
• Is there a phrase in the song that doesn't sound quite right? Is there a rhyme which sound a bit off? Are you sure nothing can be changed for the better?
• Many songs are spoilt by being over written? Is there anything that you can take out without losing anything from the song?
• Could the accompaniment work better? Is the rhythm in sync?
• Does the overall message of the song clear?Is everything well balanced when you hear it?
• How is the drum pattern? Could an off beat pattern work better?
• Would vocal harmonies add to the song. Is two or more voices better than one?
• Can you identify what can make the song better?
