In addition to writing mainstream pop, country and R&B songs, there are many other genres songwriters might choose to explore. These include writing Christian, Latin, Christmas, folk/Americana, comedy, cabaret, and children's songs.

Why do we give priority to the hard music today, whereas yesterday we preferred the light one? Can you reason choosing records of Eminem, HIM, the Red Hot Chilli Peppers or Pussycat Dolls?

To answer the question we have to sort out what music is? Scientists claim it to be our vibration of a particular frequency. Musicians, however, insist it's a means of rendering of a certain mood.

If you want your songs to stand the test of time, you have to build them solidly from the ground up. These are ten things you'll need:

1. The cornerstone: a unique title, a dramatic situation.
The title is the emotional center of the song. Come up with as suggestive a title as you can, one that conjures up a strong emotional situation. If the title itself isn't very dramatic, plot out the most evocative story and situation you can to bring fresh attention to an old title concept.
2. The foundation: a well-defined structure.
