I do a lot of co-writing with lyricists. They provide completed lyrics and I do the music. One of the things I've learned is to back away from the writers who have limited sense of verbal rhythm. While I could repair bad lyrics, doing so rarely gets friends. My chosen response for a bad set of lyrics is "I don't think I'm the right partner for this song."

[@SongTownUSA]

You’re absolutely right that lyrics have to be musical and have a sense of rhythm! That’s one of the main things we teach and our SongTown lyric writing courses. Have you tried writing with lyricist from the ground up on a song so that you can contribute to the lyric being written in the room? CM

@@SongTownUSA I do work with a couple of lyricists via Zoom. In those situations, there is more opportunity to fine-tune the lines together to achieve a mutually satisfying result.

Awesome! About half of my pro co-writes these days are on zoom.~CM
