I am currently writing at least 1 1/2 songs a day and I don't know why this sudden outbreak. I don't know how but as easy the lyrics come to me, the titles do not. I need some suggestions on titles. I post the songs in my journal. If you feel like you can help, comment my journal/feedback here or PM me. It really doesn't matter.

Your journal's set to friends-only.
And I'm alright with titles (um, assuming I've written songs? Okay, I write music, but lyrics are hard for me, and everything I write is junk so....). What about pulling a main line from the song? Something clever that goes with the theme? Alliteration? Titleing songs is a lot like titleing stories.
With more info, I could suggest more.

Well, see the thing is, titling songs by the main line is a bit overrated in my opinion.

Yeah, I know. But sometimes you can pull it off.
Cool songs, though smile I enjoyed reading them, and would love to hear them set to music. As for titles... I can't really suggest anything. Sorry.

I come back after several weeks after of being barely active just to tell you I have not a clue in this matter. Sorry.

TPCASTT the song. >.>
OK, not really. TPCASTT is some really weird form of analyzation we used in English to come up with the eventual theme of a poem. It really makes you go in depth to what you are reading. So, while I do not suggest you analyze your own song(though that may help), I'd suggest taking the overall theme of it, change the wording a bit to where it sounds prettier, and use that as the title. Or use an allusion.
*shrug* Just my suggestion though.

*shrug* Just my suggestion though. She was suggesting it for making a title; no need to get mad.

Keep the song as it is - just find the theme of it. That's is something like "don't pass up on oppurtunities" or "don't do drugs" or "be nice to people" - the overall message, basically. The basic themes themselves don't make very good song titles, but if you take them and change the wording into something more lyrical, you could come up with an interesting title. For instance, "Don't do Drugs" could be something more like "The Evil of Drugs." That isn't the greatest example, but did that make more sense...? sweatdrop
There wasn't meant to be anything in there about helping your writing skills. o-o So sorry it came across that way. I didn't mean to insult you.
