SONG INTROS?

As a songwriter, the intro needs to grab the listeners attention. However, you don't always need an intro e.g:

  • 'Hey Jude'-THE BEATLES
  • 'Royals'-LORDE
Both those songs start with vocals. A solo vocal can be a very powerful instrument as'A an intro

Other songs can start with the chord sequence from the Chorus. e.g:

  • 'Tonight'-LAW (When i wrote this song i came up with the chorus chord sequence first. I think that chord sequence was always going to be the intro as well. Hear the song in the video below)


  • 'All About That Bass'- MEGHAN TRAINOR
  • 'Build me up Buttercup'-THE FOUNDATIONS
  • 'Dancing Queen'-ABBA
  • 'Get The Party Started'-PINK
Also a song can start with a guitar intro e.g:

  • 'Day Tripper'- THE BEATLES
  • 'Enter Sandman'- METALLICA
  • 'Some on the Water'- DEEP PURPLE
  • 'Layla'- ERIC CLAPTON
Their  are quite a few songs that have a really good intro.

What are your favourite songs intros?

Here's a few of mine:


  • 'Brothers in Arms'-DIRE STRAITS
  • 'Devotion 2000'-D*NOTE
  • 'Gravity of Love'- ENIGMA

    • Until next time

    FEATURED ARTIST OF THE WEEK: JELLY CLEAVER

    Hi! Everyone, this week's FEATURED ARTIST OF THE WEEK is the very talented  singer-songwriter, musician  & producer JELLY CLEAVER JELLY CLEAVER Please introduce yourself I’m a singer-songwriter, jazz guitarist and producer. I’m also an activist and this really influences my music and the lyrics I write. I love lots of different genres so have quite an eclectic style and like to throw myself into different music scenes. I’m really into the jazz scene and the punk/DIY scene in London at the moment.   How did you get into music? I started playing guitar as soon as I could hold one pretty much because my dad was a guitar teacher, and I’ve always had a really deep connection to music. I’ve tried lots of different aspects of music out though, from leading an African singing and drumming ensemble to starting a rock band.
