Songwriting for Beginners

A long playlist, not a single course

This is a playlist of 34 videos from the How To Write Songs channel, running to about 8 hours 56 minutes in total. Because it is a set of separate uploads rather than one course, the order it is watched in matters more than it would for a single video.

Who it suits

The title makes the target clear: people starting out with songwriting who want a long, gradual introduction. The total runtime means it works best as something to return to across many writing sessions rather than in a single sitting.

Getting the most from it

• Watch in playlist order so each video builds on the last
• Write a short draft after each video to test the idea
• Check the video titles first to confirm the topics you need
