"You can't build a relationship with everybody in the room when you don't care about anybody in the room" John Maxwell.
In this series, we have discussed how to make people relate to your song using "common ground" and "hooking the title of your song". This edition of the series is based on "using a universal theme/title".
A theme is the central idea of your song- Deep love, love found, heartbroken,etc. A theme is considered universal when it can be related to by the majority of people. Most people want love. When the theme is a part of life that most people experience, that is a universal theme. Conversely, a personal theme represents what can be related to by only you. For instance, if your song is about "How I Met Mary", you may be strongly related to the song but not everybody will relate to that.
Aramide rode on this concept to make people relate to her song "Feeling This Feeling". A theme/title almost everybody can relate to since we all love and love is about feeling.
The subsequent paragraphs contain the other things that contribute to the success of "Feeling This Feeling" by Aramide and the lessons songwriters, and music producers will learn from the song.
Form
The overall form of the music is:
intro- verse1- chorus- verse2- chorus- bridge- chorus- chorus- coda
Vocals
The voice of the singer is so pathetic that it arouses listener's emotion. In other words, Aramide expressed the emotional content of the music through her vocal.
The brilliant vocal pads introduced in the chorus add to the beauty of the music. Besides, the vocal accompaniment introduced towards the end of verse2 adds intensity to the chorus that comes after it and lays emphasis on the hook ("feeling the feeling......................." )
Melody
The melody of "Feeling This Feeling" by Aramide is tuneful. The melody of each section is unique. The most interesting part is that the melody of the chorus is higher in pitch than that of the verse to emphasize the hook.
Bridge
The bridge creates the contrast that really makes the entire song interesting. The bridge is instrumental while the verses and the chorus are vocal.
Coda (outro)
"Feeling This Feeling" ends with a coda that is made up entirely of the hook of the song.
Lessons
- Carefully chose a theme/title that is universal. A title that will be easily related to by majority of people.
- Strive to bring out the emotional content of your song.
