Part 2 of a 5-part series. I'll help you find the inspiration and determination to write an original song NOW. Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac has written some of the most beloved songs of the past 50 years. And she's done it with as few as TWO CHORDS per song. Find out how what you can learn from Stevie to get inspired and write more and better songs.
To show you what I mean, I sing and play an excerpt from Fleetwood Mac's only #1 single, the Stevie-Nicks-penned classic, "Dreams."
There's no reason why YOU can't write a song with simple chords and an interesting melody to create some magic like Ms. Nicks. Take today's song challenge and give it a try!

Hi, my name is Robert Cassard. I'm a lifelong guitar player, singer-songwriter, producer, and music fanatic. I create Guitar and Recording Discoveries videos with a simple goal: to make YOU a better, happier, more confident musician!
In 2018, after more than 40 years as a pro musician, I started sharing my experiences through easy-to-understand TH-cam videos - giving you shortcuts to de-mystify playing, singing and recording.
My "day job" is as a video writer/producer/director. Often it's hard to balance my need to earn a living with my desire to share the pure joy of music through the TH-cam videos I make for free.
Your ongoing support means the world to me and encourages me do more of what I love - sharing musical discoveries to help and inspire you! I invite you to become a "Guitar Discoverer” by signing up on Patreon so I can keep providing you the most value I can. / robertcassard

Well said. The best pop or hit songs are often the ones that are simple, since people or consumers can easily remember them.
It’s a songwriter’s choice: do a lot with a little. Stevie is one of the greats at doing that. And it never hurt that she had Lindsey Buckingham to arrange and produce those songs…
I really enjoyed your "Dreams" interpretation. Do you have a full version available? Fascinating about it only being two chords. I knew it was an F-G ostinato, but didn't realize it persisted the whole song.
Thanks, Kevin. I was just messing around with a chunk of Dreams to illustrate the songwriting point about two chords...but I'm glad you liked my approach! Maybe I'll give it a go...
You’ve opened a door, created a platform and let’s hope there are enough seats inside to enjoy the show!
Thanks, Dan. The magic of TH-cam - we'll never run out of seats!
This is pretty interesting content I think he will do well if you continue videos like this 50k subscribers is just around the corner
Thank you, rossconuts. 50k subs seems like a long way off, but I hope you’re right! So many topics to cover...

Thank you Larry stylinsons bridesmaid! I appreciate the compliment and hope you find more helpful stuff on my channel.

Performed by JacknLefty. Songwriting part 2: This Tune. I tried to write in one chord (Gmi) turns around with a D7 and Eb. C'est la Vie once again kudo's Robert.
YES! Great way to rise to this challenge. Interesting how it can feel brave to stay on a single chord for entire verses, eh? But it makes the turnaround so welcome and powerful. Kudos, man.
YES! Great way to rise to this challenge, Daniel. Interesting how brave it can feel to stay on one chord for entires verses. But then it makes the turnaround so welcome and powerful. The world is full of hits similar to this. Kudos, man!
What Gibson guitar is that?
Gibson J50. You read my mind and posted it, lol. Should have waited longer in the video play before asking.
LOL, Aaron. I always TRY to remember to say or show what guitar model I'm holding or playing.
