    Music is obviously a very subjective artform, and one persons definition of “great” will not match another persons 1:1

    So what are some characteristics of a song that push it from good to great?

    Me personally I like songs that take the listener on a journey. Whether that be through the chords or different sections of the song or a beat switch or whatever. These kinds of songs allow me to visualize whatever is going on in my head and it makes for a very pleasant experience

    Anything specific about the melody? Or are you just drawn to a good melody?

    And what is a “good” melody

    it's hard to nail down for me personally. if something sounds good, it sounds good. i don't really go by a metric, especially if you're listening to a plethora of genres

    Yea I find myself visualizing songs in my head when I rly get into them

    A good song is dynamic yet masterfully orchestrated so that it isn't too cluttered, it flows well and can be a loop or some crazy journey but it just keeps you interested

    It's all about synergy, each element compliments each other

    Just the overall feeling that I get from it after the song is over.

    This is factsssssss. You can have a lot going on but if they don’t compliment each other it just sounds cluttered and messy.

    You can have a simple song that just has 2 or 3 ideas bouncing off of each other and it can be great.

    too broad of a question for me to give an answer to, songs can be great to me for many many different reasons

    catchiness and no dull moment

  • Lyric or element of the beat that gets stuck in your head
