View post (Lyrics first or music first?)

If you're creating lyrics to go with lyrics and melody written by someone else, be careful as this can be a difficult and frustrating process. I work with a singer/songwriter and often I have to come up with chords for her melody and often what I give does not fit the sound she has in her head so the process can take a while. Its best to be patient and give time for bonds to develop between yourself and fellow musicians.
