I've learned so much from your video tutorials. Short, simple, and to the point! Thank you.

[@wallyflint]

You sure explain things clearly. Concise and to the point. Nice!

[@willardlosingersmusicchann569]

Maybe you can do a tutorial on how to make a hook?

[@DylanLaine]

Thanks for the request!

[@powdermnky007]

I like to get a straight piece of wire, then start by putting a 180 degree round bend in it. TADA!

[@YouAreMySunshine2]

or maybe give an example??

[@florencehill4062]

Nice explanation. Thanks a lot! As a singer-songwriter this was pretty useful for me. It kinda gives me more confidence on the stuff I'll write about, since I know the "technical" aspect of it. I wasn't too clear before, even though I've sung written all of my own unpublished songs!

[@mauriciobamna7117]

Can you please use a song that contains both the chorus and the hook in order for me to understand it better

[@talileonard2553]

Daddy issues

[@ch3rry_dream]

11 minutes Yungblud ft Halsey is a good example

[@Vladimir_Tod]

"You're eleven minutes away, and I have missed you all day. You're eleven minutes awaaaaaay, so why aren't you here?" 11 Minutes, Yungblud+Halsey

[@pedrobernardo350]

Listen to "Charlie" from red hot chilli Peppers, theres a melodic Hook apart from the Chorus that ITS completely different

[@kingjorge2694]

@@Vladimir_Tod and that example would be considered the hook? Sorry I’m a novice

[@promidonofficial]

Thank you 😊

[@surr1715]

Thank you so much, you made it very easy to understand for an aspiring new artist like me. Thumbs up.. and i will be watching more of your tutorials... thank you!!!!

[@Vladimir_Tod]

[@zachstrickland2044]

[@MuhammedGncy]

[@Pedro-zb4fq]

Great content, Thanks Dylan, thanks YT!❤😊

[@didierjoomun]

Thanks for the clear explanation ! I've subscribed :) Having an audio example would help though

[@zainfadi7953]

Question: some songs have a section after the chorus which has the hook played (again) in it with the same music that was in the chorus. Would you call this section in this case the Hook-Section, the post-chorus, or does it have a certain name? Thank you so much for the awesome videos

[@oscargeraghty3573]

So then is "there is no pain, you are receding etc." Is the chorus and "I have become comfortably numb" is the hook? In pink floyd's comfortably numb

[@akashchauhan6039]

thank you now my doubt is cleared.

[@patrickong4312]

Which is the Chorus? In this song "It's All About You"(for covid19)

[@655bebeusgdbeueb4jdu]

[@mohansunchuri7341]

I am stuck in hook and bridge ,please, could you demostrate like chorus?

[@stevedouglas7375]

Wow, I'm sunk. I swallowed it hook, line and sinker and I've flopping on the deck. Now, the knee bone is connected to the thigh bone, except if you've had a hip replacement, then it's.......Just kidding. Thank you Dylan for your tutorial. Very informative and much appreciated. I'm good with lyrics and melodies, but I need to improve on the chorus, hook and bridge. Thank you!!

[@DylanLaine]

You’re welcome!!

[@stevedouglas7375]

Cool!

[@__________hugo]

Thanks

[@chanreese9362]

Dylan can u do a tutorial for 'I give you my heart' by Hillsong Worship?

[@DylanLaine]

Hi Chan, thank you for your request - I will add it to my list :)

[@patiencezero1025]

Idk if rap producers would agree with your definition. I figured that rap beats don't have chorus at all these days, and hook was some kind of bridge that catchy. Something to replace chorus all together.

[@dhirankehm1453]

Can i use any bar in my beat for a chorus or verse

[@xidimusic5915]

youre awesome! thanks

[@wawayplays]

[@diegoambrosio]

[@DylanLaine]

[@emotion_deluxe]

[@DylanLaine]

You're so welcome!

[@RoxanaZorzolan]

Thank youuu

[@torianmcneill3794]

I'm listening to this song when I looked it up in the lyrics it says hook instead of chorus it's confusing

[@catteadams]

A hook can be a chorus.

[@zaylyric]

I love girl ❤️

[@y.aboelsoud6414]

thx 🤍

[@bakedcreations8985]

Example?

[@biancadias4272]

não entendi nada, mas você é uma benção parabéns ❤️👏🎶

[@ana99tav]

Bianca Dias vc entende ingles?

[@biancadias4272]

Ana Sofia não entendo kkk, mas as vezes uso um Google tradutor pra escrever e tal😄

[@ana99tav]

Bianca Dias kkk ela disse que o hook é uma frase do tema da musica que se repete ao longo da música e é muito como se diz no Brasil "grudante"

[@VMKVLOGS33]

well explained sister, love from India......

[@raskidon]

Nice one

[@summaryadav8199]

example?

[@user-iv5wn1su4c]

It is so confusing... Not clear. I read in stabdart jazz they call it chorus is whole song (AABA). In pop chorus something memorable??? It is too subjective

[@zhouzheng7967]

solid

[@zhouzheng7967]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4iWfKGom9WXqbM do you think this song has a hook that repeating next to the chorus all the time ??haha

[@GucciButNotGuilty]

Could be the pre chorus melody as well

[@godswill4mii]

you should have used songs with hooks to explain further. you confused US

[@draxxthemsclounts2478]

It's a chorus if it's a rock or pop song. It's a hook in hip-hop jk

[@bansanofficial2877]

Sorry but iam still confused🙆‍♀️😕

[@seviproductions]

i am still lost 😒🙄

[@jamesgrey13]

I have a problem... I try to make every part of my song catchy and memorable! I just don't know how to write the boring bits! :'(

[@nnakaudoh]

Maybe your melodies are really busy try simplifying them

[@murphg6742]

Your bangs are uneven dear.

[@maktubduo7915]

I like your content but You need to get your voice centred, you'd be much more successful with a bit of training. Leave me a PM if you'd like to work on that.
