When creating a song about different things that are not so much created to rock is difficult to make a good ballad since the music genre will feel off due to the selected words, for hat reason, you should write and decide everything carefully since it;’s very easy to be out of sync and everything will go to waste, just find inspiration with the previous step and try to do your best to stay on the topic with the correct sounds and expressions and after that, your ballad will be completed in no time, work carefully and ask for the help of your crewmates if necessary.
STEP #3: USE MULTIPLE COMBINATIONS OF ELEMENTS, TOPICS, AND SOUNDS.
Using multiple combinations of effects, sounds and everything else related to the topic will be a good way of finding inspiration and creating a good rock ballad that will be entertaining enough for the fanatics and for the public, also make sure to include your dog in the lyrics, don’t try to use the pet in your title or introduction and forget about it in the next step of the lyrics, just remember that this will be a kind of tribute towards your best friend, don’t make everything messed up to the point that the public won’t understand what kind of topic are you using, be careful with this and remember, a good ballad will be the one that takes proper advantage of the sounds, effects, and proper lyrics, otherwise everything will be pointless, do your best and the results will kick in!
