Overview

Discover the Stories Behind the Music. What does it take to turn a heartbreak, a chance meeting in a foreign city, or a simple ""Look Da"" into a song? Collecting Songs is more than just a collection of lyrics and chords-it is a decade-long journey captured in ink and melody. Written by Be Roberts, this intimate anthology invites you into the ""personal library"" of a songwriter who began a decade ago with dark hair, fewer years on the clock, and a drive to make sense of the world through music (p. 4). Inside this collection, you will find: Raw Songwriting: Over 40 original songs, ranging from the earliest experiments with basic chords to complex explorations of melody and form (pp. 9, 21). The ""Thoughts Behind the Words"" Each song is accompanied by the personal story that inspired it. From the ""emerald-eyed"" girl who wasn't meant to be, to the silent struggles of depression, and the pure joy of a holiday romance in Rome or Paris (pp. 7, 11, 23). A Guide for Aspiring Creators: Roberts shares the ""staggeringly bad"" moments alongside the successes, offering encouragement and honest reflections for anyone hoping to start writing their own music (p. 4). A Multimedia Experience: Every song includes a link to the original recording on YouTube, allowing you to hear the evolution of the sound as you read the lyrics (pp. 4, 6). Themes that Resonate: Whether it's the relatable routine of a ""Little Life,"" the fragility of handing someone ""A Heart to Hold,"" or the bittersweet realization that ""The Days Don't Rhyme,"" these songs explore the universal experiences of love, loss, and the beauty of being ""more than you think you can be"" (pp. 21, 29, 32). ""I hope you enjoy the words. And thank you for being here."" Perfect for musicians looking for inspiration, fans of lyricism, or anyone who has ever found a piece of themselves in a melody.
