Thanks Mike for this interesting thread. Alot of insight and helpful information for the songwriter to consider. Makes me want to look at my list of songs and see what the ratio is. I understand what you mean also how sometimes even a somewhat negative lyric might come across as a postive song given it's upbeat tempo and/or melody mood. Thanks for everyone's input. smile

Best of positive writing, smile
