There is a huge difference between writing something to show off musical chops and writing something that appeals to a really wide range of people both musically and lyrically.

Yeah, there's a difference. But which is more difficult? I believe that was the question.

Coming up with songs that "millions of people enjoy" is pure luck. There's thousands and thousands of people who write potential hits everyday, but will never see them break through for obvious reasons.

-Paramore iswas a Christian band
-There exists a pair of tits I must now quest for


I found it as well...I must say, that was the biggest "celebrity nudes" let down ever...:noplease:

knowing how people will react to music is a skill. all you need to do is know what the majority of people like. sure, it's more of a business skill, but if you're getting into pop, it's less about the music and more about the gbusiness anyway.

writing music is not like playing the lottery, if your music is bad, there isn't a chance people will like it.

it's more difficult to write a song that will connect not because people are so different (they're actually quite the same)

its because good music thats simple is RIDICULOUSLY hard to write. if you could write a song with a very simple four chord progression that really captivates people and sells well, feel free to prove me wrong.

oregon bitch!!
^^that was awesome. i dont think the lyrics from that paramore hit would fit in that progression though. i tried to dub it and it sounded like shitcycles. (a popcycle made of shit, yes they have a sound)^^

i dont think writting a top 10 hit song is pure luck, however, having a top 10 hit song is alot of luck and work.
