Рет қаралды 15,139
Күн бұрынtoday i’m going to be doing another video reacting to songs i wrote in high school & college and trying to play them on my guitar!
taking a little break from tutorials today to share more songwriting :) i’m really hoping to make more videos about the songwriting process and my experience with it, so if you guys would like more videos like this, please let me know in the comments!!
in this video, i’ll kind of share with you my journey with songwriting. i go through all my old songwriting notebooks from high school & college and see which ones i remember how to play lol. i’ve written a LOT of songs, and there were definitely a ton of really bad ones haha, but i just wanted to show y’all where i started. i hope this is entertaining for you & if you want to see more let me know!!
my songs:
permanent- 10/31/15, age 17
you found me- 4/5/16, age 18
goodbye- 3/12/16, 18
fairytale- 7/12/16, 18
open your eyes- 9/2/16, 18
my song- 12/16/16, 19
games- 2/25/17, 19

I started playing guitar when Taylor first came in the scene and put it down until yesterday LOL I broke down and bought a guitar cuz you kinda inspired the idea and opened up my interest again LOL Taylor’s new album kinda helped too!! I’ll be seeing her in Arlington in June hopefully!! Anyway keep it up!! Also I subbed a few days ago!!
