Thank you to everyone who supported the launch of Advanced Song Maps.
I’m delighted that the book reached #1 in its Amazon categories, and the wonderful messages and five-star reviews have meant so much. It’s lovely knowing the Song Maps are finding their way into your songwriting.
And I’ve got something new to share!
Your Next Song. arrives on 30 November.
It’s a little different from my other books.
Sometimes the hardest part of songwriting is simply knowing what to write about. So I’ve put together 50 fresh song-title starters, each with conversational titles, three possible stories, a suggested Song Map and a way to make that final chorus mean more.
Take a title like ‘One More Cup Before You Go’ or ‘I’m Glad I Was Wrong’. Each could become three completely different songs, depending on the story you choose.
It’s designed to be a book you can dip into whenever you need a fresh idea, whether you’re writing alone or heading into a co-write.
I’ll share more as we get closer to publication.
Until then, thank you again for being part of this songwriting journey.
Happy songwriting!
Simon
P.S. Your next great song might begin with just a few ordinary words.
