Hi, thanks taking a moment to stop by, my name is Dan O'Connor. If you clicked on this page, instead of the one million other pages on the Internet, then maybe the thought of what it would be like to write amazing songs and lyrics has occurred to you? Or maybe you already have done some writing but you might be interested in some tips to take things to the next level and beyond?

Well I have been writing songs for over 20 years, finished music school, been on the radio, sold CDs, performed live everywhere, and maybe you know of my free MP3 Website DanoSongs.com. You know what all that has taught me about writing a great song? Absolutely nothing. But it did teach me what kinds of songs become an instant hit with crowds and why, so the only thing I learned was to forget everything I thought I knew. Here is what I mean...

When you sit down to write a song do you feel deep down that it's a slim chance that the tune or lyric your writing could ever be an all time great track, known and loved by many? Or maybe you don't even know where to start. Do you know you have some talent, but there is still that nagging feeling that something's not right with your effort to get somewhere with your music and you can't put your finger on it?

How would you like to have complete confidence every time you sit down to write a song that it could be an all-time hit? Well there is a proven way to make sure your song lyrics fit in the with the style of really popular songs and a sure fire method for choosing top chord progressions. It's way easier to do than you think. But the answer is NOT some formula for writing unoriginal sounding or copycat tunes.

You might spend hours writing a song or lyric, throw half your work out, and then maybe 1 out of 10 get a really good audience reaction and you can never really figure out exactly what you did to get it right. Or maybe you never even get to the point of showing your material to people because you don't feel like it's good enough. Frustrating right? Makes you want to give up sometimes right? I know, I've been there.

Well you can learn how to create and use a customized "Proven Rock Lyric Vocabulary" that fits with the exact style you love…hard, pop, classic, alternative, jam, whatever. Uncover virtually unknown songwriting techniques that top rock songwriters like Sting, Eddie Vedder, Bono, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Kurt Cobain and many others use instinctively

You can use these strategies immediately and these writing tools will open an entire new world of writing songs and lyrics. Find out how to make your audience feel automatically familiar with every one of your songs and recognize them all as tunes that "sound like a hit". And ALSO make them say wow, that you have such a unique sound!!

Completely understand the "certain something" that makes songs from Pearl Jam, Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith and other all time great rock acts become hits every time. They obviously know something you don't. It seems like natural talent, but now you can find out how they do it.

...and incredibly, this method can be applied to any style of music!

This is not about becoming a famous overnight star and coming up with one hit wonders. It is about learning to really connect with people through music and words, in a way that is familiar, comfortable and yet energizing as well as exciting for them. On the flip side, do you know that you could unintentionally be turning off your audience with your songs? Well, I believe I know how and why.

Think of how it would feel to be totally sure of every one of your songs and lyrics every time you present them to your band, your audience, your friends, your family, the press, producers, record companies, etc. Wouldn't that confidence shine through in your performance, every aspect of your music career and in your overall self-esteem?

1. The easy 3 step process for getting listened to by major labels, producers, and every one else in the business.

In other words a very simple way for YOUR CD to go from being "unsolicited" to being "solicited" using their own secret instructions.

2. Picasso's way to become a great rock artist.

3. 6 Rules for coming up with a hit melody.

4. The golden rule of (not) arranging a song.

5. How top songwriters knowingly and unintentionally use loopholes in the copyright law to create songs that "sound like a hit" before the song ever gets on the radio!

6. THE universal rock song radio-friendly structure.

7. Ultimate tip: The single most important thing you can do in order to easily establish a long-term ongoing relationship with fans and industry contacts.

The typical songwriting method that most people use:

Pen + pad + you own thoughts =

½ or more songs thrown away
Limited audience interest
Mediocre songs
Diminished confidence and motivation
Maybe 1 in 10 songs become popular with fans (you get lucky)
Sound familiar?

Here are the results of the "1 Hour Hit Songwriting Method":

Only 1/5 of songs trashed
Constant positive audience reaction
Songs that feel great to play
Tunes you really think could possibly be on the charts
Lots more motivation and confidence onstage and in life
EVERY song becomes popular with different fans for different reasons
You have that "certain something" people notice

Just spent an hour working through the first part of the book last night. Two words:

THANKS! and AWESOME!

I haven't enjoyed a book like this since reading Kenny Rogers' "Making it in the Music Business" years ago. It's easy to follow and very practical.

I have written a LOT of songs...some have had commercial success...some I know are destined for success...but, your book is really a blessing...it's helping me bring what I thought was just a long slump to a quick end.

No matter what stage you are in of your musical journey, this course offers a truly new spin on an ancient art form.

But please note: this material is controversial to some people, so you will need to judge for yourself...risk free. All I ask for is an open mind and the desire to learn the real truth behind what can make a song a hit.

Many people will tell you that songwriting takes lots of practice. If that is so then why do people who have been at it for years and years write terrible songs? I am here to tell you that really good songwriting takes specialized knowledge and a bit of trial and error, and practice is not an issue.

You don't need to master lots of boring music theory skills and study for years. With just a few simple tools and techniques you will be able to:

 Discover the critical lyrical and melodic and choices you can make to draw in listeners within seconds of hearing a song.

 Understand that the right song structure is vital to success. I have never read another songwriting book that has done a real life analysis of this - so I did it myself by studying every one of the top 500 rock songs of all time and put my results in this material.

 Immediately tap into a potential music fan's past experiences to position yourself in their mind as "having that sound".

 Get past the thinking that a perfect song just happens naturally and learn to be in control of how tunes turn out.

 Turn around a creative block, learn to write a song for the first time, or just add these tools to the concepts you already work with.

 See how learning to work smart and not hard applies to songwriting and making money in music too.

Forget about all those 300 page music business books with contracts and useless ramblings about royalty rates and sad tales of the music industry in decline. Do they show you how to get your music recording heard by the right people within the next two weeks? No. Well this easy to read eBook The SongMix Method: "How to Write a Hit Rock Song in 1 Hour" does tell you exactly that!

It took a college degree in music business and 20 years of songwriting and performance experience for me to learn these simple but virtually unknown lessons. Save yourself years of mistakes and wasted effort. You will not find this information in stores or anywhere else on the Internet!!

Access a life-time of experience summarized in this instant download Adobe Acrobat PDF eBook file for a one-time cost of only $11.95 $7! That's less than the price of a single music lesson! I would have traded 100 of my private music lessons for someone to come up to me and teach me the SongMix Method, without having to learn it all on my own.

Just a heads up that I am planning on adding a couple of video tutorials and raising the price to $27. Until then you can still order this initial version through ClickBank, the world's most secure #1 online retailer of eBooks. I am also so sure that this material delivers what I have promised that...

If you can not write a song or lyrics that are a hit with your fans, family and friends, or if you are not 100% satisfied within 56 days of ordering, get your money back guaranteed!

What this all really comes down to is an opportunity to save precious time in a here-and-now youth-oriented business. I went to a university for music business and music theory, and that is exactly why this is not a college-style course on songwriting with endless busy-work that gets you nowhere in the real world.

I did that and sorted through all the nonsense - so you don't have to! This book "gets down to business" and specifically shows you the only songwriting tips and methods that matter.

As a songwriter or lyricist you get paid to write hit songs and to get your music heard by the people who need them. You don't to need be an expert in the tedious details of marketing, promotion and contracts if you can do those two things.

Let the lawyers and business people sort out everything else - and be the very best at what YOU were meant to do!

And there is more to how simple this is...

 Learn how to let rhymes and melodies naturally fall into place by setting up a proven tested framework for your song to begin with.

 There is one tip in the book that will never have you brainstorming all day for the perfect chorus and title again.

 Do you think that awesome ideas for songs and lyrics need to "suddenly hit you" to be really inspired and good? Well, don't be at the mercy of your subconscious for motivation anymore with these techniques.

 See why you don't even have to be confident to be a great songwriter. But...you do need to write hit songs in order to be confident in the music business since that is what drives the industry.

 Every other book in the world will tell you how to put the right press package and demo together, but I can show you the three steps you can start today, right now, to get your name in front of every major music industry player.

This does not even require a press kit! (In fact, they would rather not have the press kit) Its so easy you will not believe that you didn't think of it.

 "Networking" to get your songs heard is an outdated term that is not practical for most everyone in the world, and only really applies if you live in Nashville nowadays. Learn the really basic new concept anyone can do that will get you further, faster than networking.

So that's the story. I've outlined a method for writing songs and lyrics that the press, fans, friends and family tell me all the time "sound like a hit song". I've been told that many of my songs are addicting.

I developed this process on my own, and before I used it nobody really quite "got" my music. I did not learn this from anyone, or any book and I have put it together for you to check out here. Now it's up to you to see what you think!

All the best with your music!

Peace,

Dan-O
