Ok the last 10 minutes were like... blew my mind... he said those same thing in the Coursera course, but I think here he showed better with this last example/improvisation =)

thanks so much for all the tips! this video is gold!

I believe the most important part of a song is the music, because my musician and singer can make a beautiful song no matter how mediocre my lyrics are.

This was actually super incredible! Pat is a genius!

love that you could share with us this, music knowledge that gets to me to make me want to know music more !

Incredible stuff... Thank you Mr.Pattison/IMRO

​​​@@ledaswan5990 I don't really think it is about that. Meaning it's not about if he's written a hit song anymore than a music theory teacher having composed a sonata. Just like with music theory, it helps to to understand what is already happening. If you want to see sad watch the old Larry Dvoskin lecture at CUNY...CRINGE

The crowd singing is so uplifting

Just excellent!

5 Years Later - I concur. I've done 2 weeks on object writing and I feel like I'm just scratching the surface. I'm going to keep doing daily exercises for a couple more weeks because I'm starting to really build the sense-bound language muscle.

Absolutely amazing

Pat, Just found your Channel. A couple of songwriters I know that attended Berklee College of Music. One is Liz Longley. I had interviewed her when she was 18 for an internet radio show I was doing. Second is Jesse Terry. I now do an internet tv show uploaded to KZread called "The Performing Songwriter". Jesse was my guest on the last show uploaded.

Brilliant…thanks 😃🥸

Wow this is super helpful.

im still home but now it's five years later and i'm peaking in the window

I'm trying to find an article I once read by Pat about John Mayer's song 'Badge & Gun'. I've been looking for it everywhere and can't find it. I now can't remember if it was an article or a seminar like this. Can anyone help?

Thanks for teaching

50:58 with your number of lines, with your line lenghts, with your rhyme skemes and your rhyme types.stable enough for my new song

nice seminar!

You´ve open a whole new door for my songwriting, thanks Pat!

Hola Juan Carlos. Soy de Buenos Aires.. Vos dónde sos?

He let down my expectations, and left me unstable 😏 Gotta stick around for the end.

I was looking at several songs to see if they followed the rule about real rhymes with even words, and false rhymes with uneven number of words, and I have not found that technique in any of the songs I have looked at. So what song that you know has it?

Really, really inspired me

what is the song at 53:30??

That is amazing

even though I have been watching this, I am not sure how you put in a down beat with your lyrics, or what a downbeat is, and should I put it first or not?

32:31 his Do re me is actually an A note lol

Did everyone miss the part when he used even number of lines to make his point 😂🔥❤️

amazing seminar. I wish i was in attendance!

Pat is great. I took his class at Berklee back in 75-76ish. I still refer to his notes from then...curious comment he makes here on unions however. Wonder if he meant it....sounded pretty stable to me...lol

pat for pat !!

thank you!

@THEmscellany If you don't think he's dropping gems then you aren't super into songwriting. It seems like repetition but he's always adding subtle nuances that make all the difference.

Biggest lesson: creativity does not equal spontaneity

He’s the Jack Nicholson of music

I love the material, but i mute the video when he makes the voices.

Quoting Aristotle? I’m in.

Thanks!

how many hits has pat or his student wrote with his techniques? Please list some. TY

I don’t think he’s written any as far as I can see. People are saying he’s a genius but wouldn’t a genius be able to write a hit song? Maybe he has I don’t know. I do know some of my favorite songwriters don’t use any of this stuff.
