Hi!
Face to face I've only met a handful of recording musicians.
None of them were so keen on the idea. They sort of argued
for the opposite. Among artists in general (and media) I did some brief
research and the same goes for them.
http://www.nme.com/list/50-most-explosive-choruses-1379A song seems to be a vehicle for rubbing in some short sentiment.
That does not agree with my view upon music.
At the moment I'm listening to Cohens 'Suzanne'. It has no conventional
chorus (if one at all) instead every part is as important.
I'm not saying I hold any truth. Nor that I know a whole bunch of things
about song writing. I just write what matters at the moment and use
the melodies that come to mind. Sometimes there is a part so full
of meaning that I use it as a chorus. Mostly I strive to convey a feeling
instead of telling a story. And feelings often need a few words to be defined.
A long answer to a short question.
Cheers,
- Martin
