Melody or words
When you are writing a song is it better to think of the meldoy and then throw your words in to fit it or is it better to make the words and then put a melody to them?

To me, the words give you the melody. Thinking up a small phrase, sing it, and you got a melody.
"My whole life is a dark room...ONE BIG DARK ROOM" - a.f.i.

Ditto, I usually come up with mine at the same time.

Sometimes I'll write a song for a poem or a cool phrase I came up with. Usually though I find words that fit the melody.
