Why do I always....

Rodar6..play cover songs?  What do I need to do to break the habit and write an original song :P

Ha...be bold and take on the challenge.
 
Personally, I write from my experiences in life and my attitudes about certain subjects
 
IMO....pick a subject, and know that one's first attempts may suck until appropriate time is invested to flesh out lyrics and minimize cliches.
 
Easy?...no.
Rewarding?...yes.
 
Good luck on your quest weed hopper.

Ok, maybe that was too easy.  Here's what I got with the next press of the Random Article button!

You kidding? That's a gold mine!!!


Just from the summary - A frickin' baron, and names like Bergavenny and Thornicroft -  and enough references to death and people dying in those 5 sentences alone to inspire me like 12 albums, minimum*. :P

George Nevill, de facto 14th (de jure 2nd) Baron Bergavenny (16 May 1702 – 15 November 1723) was an English peer.
The son of George Nevill, 13th Baron Bergavenny, he succeeded to the Barony upon the death of his father.
He married Elizabeth Thornicroft, on 21 February 1722/3, but died on 15 November 1723.
He and Elizabeth had twin girls, born on the 20 November 1723, both of whom died on 1 December 1723.
As he died without issue, the Barony passed to his younger brother, Edward Nevill, 15th Baron Bergavenny.



*Which would most likely all sound like Cradle of Filth, given the material. :P

I have found that writing a song is pretty easy.

Writing one I would want to do a cover of...not so much.
