"Rumor" by Lee Brice - Using Multiple Love Story Conventions
Episode 024
Today we’ll do our second lyric study about the love story moment of the first kiss. And we’ll use the song “Rumor” by Lee Brice as today’s example to find out how you can pull it off to write about that special and exciting moment when two persons who are attracted to each other are about to share their first kiss.
And by studying the lyrics of this song, you’ll discover ...
- how you can use multiple love story conventions in a song without getting over the top
- and when it’s better to leave your story unresolved and end with a cliffhanger not to steal the spotlight from your song’s central idea.
Sound good?
So let’s get started.
