Comprehensive & Amazing!
I write songs on a regular basis but struggle with not having some kind of underlying structure and path to follow. Often if I came up with a good lyric, often felt like a fluke or a slice of luck. But now, this course has given me so many tools to write lyrical hooks and how to structure my entire song, it's transformed my song writhing. I now approach writhing a song completely differently now which allows me to be so much more creatively better lyrically. Its completely transformed my lyric writhing.

Too Good to Be True!
This course on songwriting is unbelievable. You get mega producer, Anthony Little, and mega singer/songwriter, Jennifer Day Morrison, working together to teach you everything you need to know about songwriting. This course was not created by someone sitting in a basement dreaming about fame but by a dynamic duo that has experience in multi-million dollar sales of records. In other words, they have the experience and the knowledge to guide you through the process. I particularly enjoyed most the section on song structure. I do not recall hearing about this growing up. I learned song parts playing guitar along to my favorite songs and transferring that structure into my own songwriting. Fabulous course!
