Song Title
So now we're gonna talk about naming your song. So the easiest thing to do like most pop songs is to take a line from the chorus. So we've got very minimal lyrics in the chorus. So I think to be all yours would be nice if you went for the whole phrase yearn to be all yours, it gets a little bit too long. So you want something that's quite memorable. All yours would maybe be too small and also could relate to so many other songs. So you want something that is searchable and will probably come up with your video or your song straight away. So to be all yours for commercial pop music or commercial house, it's just the most obvious choice to go for lyrics from the chorus. It's also the part of the song that audience members are gonna be singing the most. So if you name it after the chorus, they're gonna remember.
