Hi, I'm Erica Lane with Expert Village talking about how to write a Christmas song on the
guitar. What you want to look for is certain type of Christmas songs that you like in order
to inspire you to write your own Christmas music. So what you want to do actually is
research older Christmas songs to your own liking whether they are up beat or slower.
Whether they are more of a ballet or inspirational or simply just fun so I have a sample of some
songs here that I like. One of them was We Wish You a Merry Christmas which is pretty
lively song and another one was Old Lang Zine. It's a very traditional Christmas song that
was actually featured in the movie It's a Wonder Life, and that is how I came to like
that song. So if it's a song that is familiar to you that you remember from seeing a movie
or hearing on a soundtrack or on the radio. Then you want to take those styles that you
have grown to love and incorporate that into your creative mood so you can write a song
successfully.
