Chapter 42. Lyrically Speaking (Part 2).

Chapter 42. Lyrically Speaking (Part 2).

By Steve Hogarth

Following on from last weeks discussion on my approach to lyric writing and some of the methods I employ, I thought it might be interesting to talk through an example.

Gaza was a song that was somewhat unique in terms of the development of the lyrical content, and the sensitivity of the subject matter.

I was very conscious I didn't want to wade in and pass comment on the situation from a distance and so in this episode I explain to Ant how the lyric took shape through the people in Gaza, Israel, and the UN whose perspectives I learned from.

It also allows me to introduce you to my friend Oren Hertz.

Keep it purple,
