A Quote by Maren Morris

I've always had an ear for melodies, and they veer pop. My lyrics are more country - what I love is the storytelling and the structure, how tight the rhymes can be. But pop melodies have always been intrinsically linked to my writing style.

My lyrics are more country - what I love is the storytelling and the structure, how tight the rhymes can be. But pop melodies have always been intrinsically linked to my writing style.

Maren Morris

Pop music has always adopted the style of marrying upbeat melodies to dour lyrics.

Colin Meloy

Jim had melodies as well as words. He didn't know how to play a chord on any instrument, but he had melodies in his head. To remember the lyrics he would think of melodies and then they would stay in his head. He had melodies and lyrics in his head, and he would sing them a cappella, and we would eke out the arrangements.

John Densmore

Sometimes, after I finish the lyrics and have all the melodies and harmonies and the pop and vocal, I'll be like, 'I have to keep it. I love it too much.'

Sia

Melodies and ideas are always on my mind and always coming to me. I'm very thankful for that because if I didn't have whatever that is, that craziness, that openness, maybe, I don't think I'd be able to do what I really love to do, which is write great melodies and at least try to write great melodies.

John Debney

I've always argued that all Tame Impala melodies are pure pop. It's just that 'Lonerism,' for example, is a completely rumbling, fuzzed out psychedelic rock album. But for me, it was just pop music produced the way that I like to produce it.

Kevin Parker

All the big pop acts that I've been into over the years - whether it's ABBA or Prince - managed to combine amazing melodies and honest human emotion. But coming out of the super-super-commerical pop industry in the 90s, maybe people forgot about the fact that pop music can do both of those things.

Robyn

First of all, The Go-Go's have always had pop melodies, OK? And the punk aspect was just at the root of it.

Gina Schock

I realized that, for me, great records always moved me with the lyrics and the melodies. And so I said, 'I think I can do it now,' 'cause I found a team of people who understand I didn't want a record that was 'drop it, pop it, shake it' just 'cause I can dance.

Laurieann Gibson

I always start with writing vocal melodies before writing lyrics.

Sigrid

I'm always writing; my phone is full of ideas - melodies and lyrics and stuff.

Eliza Doolittle

I was always going out to joints in Jersey that played country music. I was always around it. I liked the lyrics, the simple melodies, the soulful-ness.

Eddie Rabbitt

For me, pop melodies are their own thing that have their own emotion, but they don't necessarily belong exclusively in a pop song.

Kevin Parker

I love writing pop songs and I love the challenge. I love melodies and wanted it to be classy. I wanted it to have some substance because I feel as if I have a lot of things to say and wanted it to have something to it.

Courtney Jaye

I usually sing a lot on my mixtapes. I sing a lot on songs that just really aren't singles. Even my first single, 'My Last,' which I feel like is more pop than anything - I was originally singing the chorus on there. I'm used to that. I've always had fresh melodies.

Big Sean

Every time I get up in the morning, melodies occur to me and I start trying to shape lyrics to melodies.
