Title: About the lyrics...
Post by: Climber on May 25, 2009, 07:48:03 PM
I was wondering who wrote the lyrics for them?
I really love the lyrics but I just can't believe those awesome song writers are also outstanding lyrics writers...

Hopefully I'm wrong. :D

I love the lyrics too. Per the songwriting credits the Cheiron writers wrote the lyrics too.

It did say on the old Cheiron site that Andreas Carlsson was hired as a lyricist, so he must have written a lot. Here is the old Cheiron site that's archived, if you look at Songwriters, you can find Andreas:

I don't know who else was strong with lyrics but I'm sure they all contributed.

I personally think that it isn't difficult for them to write nice lyrics.
Actually writing lyrics is much easier than melodies. 8)

Actually I don't pay so much attention to the lyrics, far less than to the music for sure...
I remember this Max interview where he says that lyrics don't matter so much, as long as you have a very catchy melody and a great tune.
Some lyrics in a couple of Cheiron songs make me laugh: Lucky for example, it's oh soo cheesy!! Cheesiness at its top is also Pretty boy by M2M or Play's Is it Love.  ;)
Also agree with you sforzando that writing lyrics is much easier than writing melodies.

I could see that in songs like Tap That, U and Ur Hand, F.U.C.K Me, just t name  afew!

Joergen writes a lot in Cheirn, also I guess Andreas and Rami are more of writters than producers, Max, Kristian, Per, and David are both writters and producers!

Princessofegypt, I agree with you that Andreas usually does more original texts.
