I can see why artists always asked to have him back for writing sessions. Not just because of his talent, but because of his demeanor. He seems like a really cool guy to work with.
Absolutely loved every second of this! Justin seems like so much fun to be around and his honesty and openness about all this is refreshing. We need more people like him!!
I think its important to know who these songwriters are because Justin Tranter probably has 10 billion plus streams on his back and not a lot of people know that. Love this series sm
So Important! The hope with this series is to shine a light on the people behind the wall we don't get to hear from as much and if we can add a few thousand people to that list, we are that much closer to showing the world Justin Tranter and so many others! Also, 24 billion streams on Spotify alone for Justin :) (but when I felt like adding it up one day, and it's probably grown since)
Think it’s closer to 100 billion streams. His tenure is soooo much larger than this interview is exploring. He didn’t even mention over two dozen massive songs he’s done
I think coming from a rock band and being a band member teaches one major collaborative skills and team work that are necessary for co-writing songs with others. Also the fact that he is an accomplished singer allows his songwriting to be expressed and be showcased to the artists that would end up singing the song. Singing your own songs allows you to be emotionally connected to the song and that really comes through in trying to communicate its essence. Great interview . . . and money isn't everything, but it helps. He looks after his parents!! Great man.
Appreciate you - at the end of the day, if we can add a few thousand more people to know who Justin Tranter is, we've made the impact we're striving for! The goal is to shine a light on all the people who are usually behind the scenes and I appreciate you for helping our goal become a reality with Justin Tranter
@@DanielsWallI know what you mean, I didn't know Max Martin until I saw the jukebox musical "&Juliet" that showcases his work. Thanks for revealing another "man behind the curtain" to me
As a successful songwriter myself (“Sidelines” by Phoebe Bridgers, “Sexy to Someone” by Clairo, etc.) this interview gives me a lot of ideas to elevate my game
I'm a new topliner and songwriter. 2 things I know are true. 1. Your series connects me with so many REAL working artists. I don't really know anyone in the industry so this helps a lot. 2. One day you'll interview me and I'll give you a big hug and thank you for being honest and keeping things real in an industry where it seems like no one actually knows anything about anything.
Sooooo cool! I always wanted to be in the industry, but never wanted it that bad that I worked at it. Seeing the scoops from writers and singers has always been a favorite pastime. Thank you for this!
Yooo daniel this helps such so much dude. As an aspiring artist these videos are gem bro. I can't wait to watch more from you. Great video man love you brother.
I am so happy to see that Justin made it! I have been following his band since almost the very beginning and loved the tunes, the energy. Played it a lot as a DJ for dancing parties.
Thank you for this interview. What a wonderful and in-depth insight into the songwriting industry. I learned a ton of invaluable stuff from this interview.
Im so thankful for the internet when it comes to showing people theres room for all kinds of artists in this music and entertainment world. Most people would never know theres a guy out there like this guy or that there are people who strictly write but dont perform music etc etc, or that some musicians just work in a studio but never outside that setting etc.
I'm so late! However, this interview blew my mind! Especially, knowing that Justin Tranter wrote Believer and Centuries! Thank you for sharing this! 👑💕
It’s so surprising to me how radio plays such an important role in getting people payed since I genuinely can’t remember the last time myself or anybody I know actually listened to radio at all
I got a lot of good information here as far as advice for songwriters. Justin was detailed with the tips and being it’s through experience, it was cool of him and helpful. Cool guy. Great interview!
This stumbled on my feed and I’ve got to say this is one of the most interesting interviews I’ve seen on TH-cam. I’ve followed his work since I was a teenager. I’m 31 now so I can tell in about a minute if he’s been on a song cause of his choruses but this was great.
I don’t like a lot of songs he’s written. It’s an extremely engaging, intelligent, talented individual and I’m happy for his success. He’s the right person. He’s worked for it. He earned it. Congratulations. Good interview by the way.
I’ve never heard of this guy and I have to say, he is probably one of the nicest guys I’ve seen/heard. I’m a fan now. And also, hard subscribe to this channel.
So many questions that i have been looking the answers for, especially @11:20 I would actually love to know more about this. Very informative stuff. Justin seems like a very cool guy.
Love this whole series... can you just be more careful with the lav mic placement? The constant scratching was giving me ear sadness! Keep up the amazing insights and interviews!
amazing interview dude! super interesting to get to know these insights from a songwriter legend. really resonates with me as an artist. keep up the good work!!
It’s ironic that the Audio on this songwriter interview is so bad, the echo is unbearable and he is rubbing the microphone the whole time, which is additionally irritating
so many amazing content creators and youtubers have fantastic guests and content - yet forget about having ANYONE to monitor audio. it’s not a set it and forget it thing. yeah this is rough to listen to, would likely be better just using the host mic to pickup justin’s and amp the volume.
I’m just catching up to this series, and it is phenomenal! From one music nerd who checks the credits to another, Daniel, thank you for making these videos!
Amazing interview! I was signed to roadrunner back in 2003. I still put out music now and i make more from social media like TH-cam views than streaming income. Bet way imo is to go back to physical media, but thats gonna be a hard genie to put back in the bottle. IMO i would love to see more interviews with songwriters on your channel. The more they can go into the nuts and bolts of their songwriting process the better.
This video was not only informative, so interesting, Justin is beyond engaging. I work in marketing (entertainment) so it's awesome to see music side of things. Interview flew by so at 25 min I was not ready for last two questions. I would have listened for another hour. Amazing interview! Great job all!
@@DanielsWallyes!! Keep doing the amazing job you’re doing! You not only listen but ask awesome questions and your genuine spirit shines through. Thank you!!
This was really solid from both parties and i really enjoyed the watch. Thanks for your work and thanks for sharing this with us fr. Justin has a impressive catalogue, tbh it was mind blowing to see lol. Looking forward to more videos, subscribed and liked. Peace.
Omg! SemiPrecious Weapons is on my playlist. Their self named album was amazing and I always said that they were crazy talented. As a musician and songwriter songwriter myself, to realize over ten years that he is the reason that so many songs influenced my writing and I had no idea he was the front man to a band I had no idea where I heard them! Aviation High! Look to the stars! And their Self named track. Amazing
I love this series! but please fix the lav mic placement, the noise from your chain and Justin’s shirt is pretty distracting. Other than that The content and information is awesome!
Love this series Dan! If you run your audio though the Adobe Podcast Enhance tool it will most likely save the audio even if the lav failed. Hope this is helpful! Keep it up!
It makes me so happy that one of the biggest songwriters in the whole industry did rock bands instead of "DJ Hell" - I really hope rock keeps slowly finding new audiences again.
Amazing videos Daniel as always, your interviews are perfects!! Any chance you could interview RedOne in the future? He's a huge songwriter/producer (Lady Gaga, Pitbull, Enrique Iglesias, Jennifer Lopez, and many more), he's so inspiring!
Appreciate you Lunaar! 100% would love to meet and chat with RedOne in the future!!! Let me know if there's any cool stories or fun facts about him as well. :)
Amazing! His life is a beautiful story, he left his family in Morocco to go to Sweden to pursue his dream, without any money, and years later after hard work, and sleeping on floors, he made few number one in Sweden, but it was just in Sweden, so his family and country wasn't really aware of his success, peoples didn't know his songs, so he decided to go to America to make it global, but he had to start from scratch again, so, RedOne and his amazing wife went to America (with the money of Sweden hits), but it was so hard for him to get the trust from labels, nobody wanted to give him a chance! But after many years of struggle in America, he was close to giving up cause he didn't had enough money to survive any more months, so RedOne's wife told him "let's try 3 more month and if it doesn't work we go back to Sweden..." Thanks to his wife, he finally did a hit in America! This hit opened some doors for him, and then he met a girl (Lady Gaga), after talking to her for 10 minutes, the feeling between both was amazing, they decided to go to a studio session, and they ended up making "Lady Gaga - boys boys boys" this day, and a week later they booked another few studio session, first day they did "Just dance", second day "Poker Face", third day "Love game", each day was a number one! And then, everything happened for him! I'm sure he could inspire so many peoples in your community, with his amazing life, he's really amazing, happy person, positive person, he will give motivation and believe to everyone ❤ He's really making my life much more positive, since 13 years now, (i am his biggest fan haha, one day i'll meet him 🙏🤞)
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite series on YT 🌟
Your comment has officially made my day! This means the world. It's really incredible to see this series connecting with so many people!!!🥳✨
Same
@@DanielsWall Keep up the great work, my guy!
Uuhm... Why does he talk like that? Like gay folk sometimes speak...?!?
me too honestly
I can see why artists always asked to have him back for writing sessions. Not just because of his talent, but because of his demeanor. He seems like a really cool guy to work with.
He really seems humble and also very kind ❤
great energy...... that's the key
I agree… he seems to be a rarity of kindness in a entertainment world whose image genuinely is dark.
Excellent interview. You let the interview speak! Justin is refreshingly honest. Great choice.
Justin and Julia are definitely my favorite songwriters of this generation.
DYNAMIC DUO!!!
Julia who?
@@HexspaMichaels lol
Ludwig Goransson
Great interview Daniel, thanks.

Think it’s closer to 100 billion streams. His tenure is soooo much larger than this interview is exploring. He didn’t even mention over two dozen massive songs he’s done
Max Martin has way more streams. Max Martin = most successful songwriter ever.
I think coming from a rock band and being a band member teaches one major collaborative skills and team work that are necessary for co-writing songs with others. Also the fact that he is an accomplished singer allows his songwriting to be expressed and be showcased to the artists that would end up singing the song.

@@DanielsWall absolutely! Thank you for bringing talent in and sharing their stories!!
@@DanielsWallI know what you mean, I didn't know Max Martin until I saw the jukebox musical "&Juliet" that showcases his work. Thanks for revealing another "man behind the curtain" to me
I randomlly landed on this video (thx YT algo) and literally couldn't quite watching. Love it. Well done. Great interview. Keep it up!
So happy it connected with you heyraeh! Glad you randomly landed on it too - welcome to the series :)
Who would have thought that Justin Tranter would be such a genuine and fun person. Great interview - 5 stars ⭐️
As a successful songwriter myself (“Sidelines” by Phoebe Bridgers, “Sexy to Someone” by Clairo, etc.) this interview gives me a lot of ideas to elevate my game
Sidelines is my favorite phoebe song. Good freaking job dude. Hope to work with you one day
Nice!
No you didn’t write these sngs it’s not true. God sees everything
Me when I tell lies
I'm a new topliner and songwriter. 2 things I know are true.
1. Your series connects me with so many REAL working artists. I don't really know anyone in the industry so this helps a lot.
2. One day you'll interview me and I'll give you a big hug and thank you for being honest and keeping things real in an industry where it seems like no one actually knows anything about anything.
For someone so successful, he’s so down to earth and nice. No wonder people love working with him.
What a great conversation, love hearing from songwriters especially one as prolific as Justin Tranter 🙌🏼
This means the world! So Happy The Video Connected with you!
You're the best man @@DanielsWall
Sooooo cool! I always wanted to be in the industry, but never wanted it that bad that I worked at it. Seeing the scoops from writers and singers has always been a favorite pastime. Thank you for this!
I'm glad it connected with you Malovina - definitely brought a new perspective to me on the music industry as well!
@@DanielsWallwould you do one with Mike Shinoda at all? :) Would be cool to see his process.
Yooo daniel this helps such so much dude. As an aspiring artist these videos are gem bro. I can't wait to watch more from you. Great video man love you brother.
What a great bloke! Authentic, talented and hard-working. He deserves all the success and more 🏆
I am so happy to see that Justin made it! I have been following his band since almost the very beginning and loved the tunes, the energy. Played it a lot as a DJ for dancing parties.
Man, I love this episode....This series is just tood good. When is the behind the scenes with OneRepublic coming. Really excited for that one!
So happy it's connecting! It's on the way :)
Justin is so cool ! We love his outspokenness and good-humored spontaneity, as well as being one hell of a songwriter 🤘🏼
I could never be a songwriter. Seems like a lot of stress and only $6k. Y’all deserve so much more.
And $6000 for 300,000,000 streams. Most will not get anywhere near that.
Justin is such a class character. Thanks for uploading this interview bc his voice and wisdom was truly needed.
Thank you for this interview. What a wonderful and in-depth insight into the songwriting industry. I learned a ton of invaluable stuff from this interview.
Appreciate you Mohammed for taking the time to watch it! So happy it connected!
Thank you for this interview! It’s refreshing to hear from people that do the work and magic behind making music…and the harsh realities 😳
Justin seems like such a genuinely good person. I can see why people want to work with him. Amazing interview man. Keep it up!
What a lovely guy !, and a straight shooter, go getter, hard working pro. Who wouldn't want to work with him !? Great interview !!
Im so thankful for the internet when it comes to showing people theres room for all kinds of artists in this music and entertainment world. Most people would never know theres a guy out there like this guy or that there are people who strictly write but dont perform music etc etc, or that some musicians just work in a studio but never outside that setting etc.
This interview is amazing and so helpful to aspiring musicians and artists. Thank you for making this!
I got this video randomly suggested and you we’re both awesome enough for me to watch the whole thing. Great stuff. Justin Tanner is great energy
Very generous of him to reveal so much.
I'm so late! However, this interview blew my mind! Especially, knowing that Justin Tranter wrote Believer and Centuries! Thank you for sharing this! 👑💕
Such an amazing video Daniel! I can tell you put a lot of time and energy into making this
Appreciate you Tyler! ❤🎉
Long Story, Not Short indeed (loved that). Great interview.
It’s so surprising to me how radio plays such an important role in getting people payed since I genuinely can’t remember the last time myself or anybody I know actually listened to radio at all
Love these interviews! Would love to see chapters or topics section marked.
This guy has a presence in the room and the way he speaks it forces songs out of people 🤍👌
I used to see him on the Subway in NYC before he hit big....he always had cool vibes from afar even. :)
So glad to see he's doing great :)
It’s interesting to note that both him and Max Martin were both in niche rock bands. I’d love to see this guy work with Kamijo from Japan.
I got a lot of good information here as far as advice for songwriters. Justin was detailed with the tips and being it’s through experience, it was cool of him and helpful. Cool guy. Great interview!
"The cons are just exhausting..." possibly the most sensible thing anyone has ever said.
Fascinating interview!
This is a great interview!!!! alot of gems and insight on the business and hear nothing of great things about him thank you and keep moving forward
He seems like such a wonderful person to spend time with!
What a lovely chap! All that talent and no bad attitude
Thank you so much, Justin, for your honest insight on the songwriters´ biz - loved it and your advice for us artists/writers! Shout out from Germany
Instant subscribe, great interview, can’t believe I’ve never heard of this page. Wonderful resource. Justin is such a giver, super appreciated
That was a great interview! Thank you for that! 🤗
What an inspiring interview - thank you both!

This is probably the best video I have seen on songwriting. And a masterclass on interviewing - STFU and prime information bombs only when necessary.
I don’t like a lot of songs he’s written. It’s an extremely engaging, intelligent, talented individual and I’m happy for his success. He’s the right person. He’s worked for it. He earned it. Congratulations. Good interview by the way.

Shoosh
The audio quality isn’t great but thankfully it’s still a great interview and that comes through.
It's not the best audio but it's perfectly doable.
yea what the heck
appreciate this so much!! thanks so much for this! more please!
Appreciate you for watching and checking it out! So happy it's connecting!! More on the way :)
Thanks! Hey anyone using synclaviers, I've got the go and Arturia soft synth.. Am interested in if people are really still using them.
i adore this video, so cool hearing Justin's thoughts on this, so refreshing!!!
this explains a lot about modern pop music.
What a nice artist, songwriter, producer. Thank you for your honesty and candor.
I’m just catching up to this series, and it is phenomenal! From one music nerd who checks the credits to another, Daniel, thank you for making these videos!
damn..the portfolios of songs looks like he is the goat!believer itself deserves the title!
seems like a nice guy tbh, hope he stays humble, good for him.
Oh god I'm in love... i didnt know anything about this person until now... what a beautiful soul

Addictive as all hell !!
Amazing interview. Learned so much.
I hardly subscribe to anyone on TH-cam, but this channel provides such incredibly valuable content, especially as a musician myself.
I can't believe this only has 40,000 views
This should have 700000 views ❤
Fantastic and fun interview both of you, nice waan thanks
Wow! Subscribing now. Fantastic interviewer, thoughtful guest. I didn’t know either of them before today, but now I’m a fan of both!
This was a fantastic interview. I learned a lot. Thank you for making this
This is amazing, you are also amazing, I would like to have more.
Great content man! Just keep an eye on the mic placement next time because the brushing was very difficult to sit through 😅
very insightful conversation - love Justin
I love this series! but please fix the lav mic placement, the noise from your chain and Justin’s shirt is pretty distracting. Other than that The content and information is awesome!
Love this series Dan! If you run your audio though the Adobe Podcast Enhance tool it will most likely save the audio even if the lav failed. Hope this is helpful! Keep it up!
This a great lesson in song writing
I remember walking past Justin in williamsburg in 2005. He was just passing me by but he seemed so driven and determined.
I've been writing like crazy this past year, over 100 songs written and recorded.
@@zandel_zandel check out Endless Refrain
Awesomeness job. Great knowledge, humor, charisma, and fun. Thank you ❤🎉
Just found this series, and this is what I needed to find! Ty!!! Amazing!! Sub!

This means the world! Thank you
Great interview, I like it, wow, thanks, greetings, Bobby.
It makes me so happy that one of the biggest songwriters in the whole industry did rock bands instead of "DJ Hell" - I really hope rock keeps slowly finding new audiences again.
Amazing videos Daniel as always, your interviews are perfects!!
Any chance you could interview RedOne in the future? He's a huge songwriter/producer (Lady Gaga, Pitbull, Enrique Iglesias, Jennifer Lopez, and many more), he's so inspiring!
