Songwriting: The Great Songs

Discover the power and depth of great songwriting as we explore classic songs written by some of the best songwriters in music history. Each week we will take a deep-dive into one great song. We'll analyze the chords, melodies, lyrics and arrangements to discover what makes a great song "great" and discover the methods and historic context behind these important compositions. Songs will include ‘God Only Knows’ (The Beach Boys), "Strawberry Fields Forever" (The Beatles), "Do You Realize" (The Flaming Lips), "Waterloo Sunset" (The Kinks), "Life On Mars" (David Bowie), and more. No previous songwriting experience is necessary.
