HaiSong
HaiSong or Haisong
*I will expand on this as time goes on*
Haisong
Imagine a time...
Haiku's set to rhyme
The base for hit songs
-ES 2011
.
Description: A Haisong is derived from the words, "Haiku" and "Song".
The thought is that a Hit Song can be made from the finished Haisong.
The Parts:
The Title of the Haisong represents the hook in the song.
The first line represents verse 1.
Lines 2 and 3 represent verses 2 and 3.
The Haisong just gets you from nothing to something.
...
The Haiku lines:
Imagine you are sitting in a room. You see a bowl with one crisp corn flake in it, sitting on the table.
I always try to write the second line first. It is a statement line or question line, and it should be 7 syllables long (important for those who will turn this into a song)
(Line 2): All alone, world upside down (the bowl represents the world turned inside out) Edit: All alone, World inside out.
The first line should be a sensory item reflecting to that second line I just wrote.
(Line 1): Cold hard shell called life (5 syllables)
Line 3 should be a result of what lines one and two are. 5 syllables here also.
(Line 3): How did we get here?
And the title will be sought from all 3 lines. 3-5-7 syllables, maybe... it matters most that it makes sense (it is your hook base)
(Title): Where did you go? -referring to all of the other corn flakes. -also, how does one single corn flake get into the bowl? these are questions we now have to answer in the song (after the Haisong)
Haisong Example:
Where did you go?
Cold hard shell called life
How did we get here?
-ES 2011

I will turn this into a song over time. We went from nothing, to something... and an easier way to get to a song since we have structure and syllable counts. And, we don't need to tell anyone we are talking about a corn flake in a bowl (this is why artists never tell the meaning of a song, eh?)
