Steve Popovich is John Cougar, Frankie Yankovic aand Meat Loaf's manager etc.
He lives in my neighborhood and has given me some advice, which is:
If you are going to write songs, they better be STRONG!

Thanks Steve,
Jim Washington, Wickliffe

Yeah, but everybody thinks they write strong songs, even the people that don't. \:D

Not bad advice, but KF3 points out that many songwriters, especially those just starting out, do not know what makes a song "strong".

There are several songwriting books that give good advice for writing better songs. You can usually find these at your local bookstore or even your local library.

So what makes a STRONG song, Jim?
