Duh, idiot. (Patreon)

Had an incredible 'Duh, idiot' moment last night in realizing, oh, yeah, my songs are more interesting when I write them linearly, from beginning to end, rather than starting with the chorus, which often leads to verses that feel restrained by the rhythm of the "hook." 

If they only exist to get to the "good part," of course they don't have the verve of said good part. Duh, idiot. Experiment more with where you start in your songwriting. 

That said, it would also be beneficial to work out better ways of creating verses, because I have quite a few choruses that sound good but are in need of the other defining parts of a song.
