Re: How are songs put togather? What is the process?
well seldom words are written for a tune already composed. usually lyrics are penned first and then are handed over to the selected musician [composer] to compose the music. composers usually have assistants who actually write the music for them and then music goes to the arranger to arrange it [which basically means which instrument will have which part of the tune]...n then after final approval of the producer/director they go into the studios to record the song. selection of the singer is normally done by the composer but producer/director can change it if they don't want that singer to sing the song.
