Hi Kristi
What I meant was this. If you give someone just lyrics they can make a melody and chord structure in so many different ways. There are endless possibilities of how a song can turn out as you can imagine.
Different chords melodys style pace tempo etc etc the sky is the limit.
However if you give a basic pattern and structure to work to they have to work around that pattern. There are still numerous directions to go but always within the basic structure rythm and pattern. I hope I make sense. It would be interesting to see just how diverse folk can get using the same basic pattern that Jack laid out rather than just a complete free hand.
It is like building the walls and then asking someone to complete the house. There is only so much can be done within that framework but every house could be different. As opposed to giving someone a free hand to build any old house any shape any size from scratch.

"Stop the process I call 'waiting to live.' This is the worst type of procrastination, because there will always be another 'reason to wait' lurking ahead. Once you are in this rut, it is nearly impossible to get out of it. Instead, adopt a 'Live as you Go' mentality." -Brian Austin Whitney
