bananahrr's songs :)
Welcome to bananahrr's songs!
If someone asked me if I wanted to publish my journal or diary to the world,
I'd say yes.
And I know it sounds crazy, but I honestly would because my songs are my journal entries.
Well, where do I begin.
I've been writing songs since I was little. But I got really into it when I was in 5th grade, and I never stopped. I've never been good at saying something when the moment is right, but my songs allow me to say everything. I'll never be able to tell someone that I like them, let alone tell anybody else who my crushes are, but my songs allow me to do that. I think that's what I love most about songwriting.
If you are reading my songs, I really love you. And I truly mean that. If you have a songbook, or anything, please tell me because I would love to read your songs too. It means a lot, and I'm so excited to share my stories with you.
LoveLoveLove, Hannah

Gigi's Songwriting Reviews
bananahrr: Dylan
This is one of the sweetest songs I have ever read/heard. I love your writing style. It's so captivating, especially the way you describe Dylan. He seems like a Prince Charming. Your lyrics are truly amazing. I absolutely love this song! And I have to tell you how when I was reading the Chorus, I got to the last line, "All because of you Dylan." I seriously had an Awwwww! go through my head, and I was like freaking out because it was so sweet and amazing! :)
Originality: 10/10
This song is just so real! I mean, how does it get any more original when you are using the guy's name? But seriously, the ideas you put out in the song are so unique! I feel in love with the song.
Relatable: 20/20
This song is definitely relatable. I feel like a lot of girls out there can relate to what you're saying because I think most people have met a "Dylan" before or are dreaming of meeting someone like him! I know that this song reminded me of someone special out there. The fact that the song connected me with someone else definitely means it is relatable.
Potential: 30/30
This song can be on Taylor's next album! I feel that a happy song like this is a song most people would love to listen to. I would definitely be one of those people blasting this song in the car and singing every word, thinking about my "Dylan." If the song were ever released, it would be near the top of the charts. People would love to hear this song on the radio.
Lyrics/Content: 40/40
This idea of you and Dylan is so captivating. I keep using that word because I don't know how else to explain how much I was belting out the lyrics in my room while reading over the song. Everything made sense, and it was such an interesting song. I still have the lyrics in my head because the words were so clever and unique. This song was soo good! The topic, the words, the everything! You're so talented to have written a song like this!
Total: 100/100
There is literally nothing I would ever change about this song. It's flawless in so many ways, just like you! The song was absolutely amazing, and your way with lyrics is just, Wow! I really connected the lyrics to my own "Dylan." This was an amazing piece! Thank you so much for letting me be able to review it! If you would like me to review another song, please feel free to post it! This song was great! Thank you so much again! :)

Wow, just wow! I really, really enjoyed reading this song. The chorus was my favorite part:
"Remember the times
When he was always on your mind
Oh, remember the days
When your eyes were always on his face
And remember your heart
Beating so fast, even when you were apart"
Great job!

Comments: this is really nice! Let's talk about how to increase the scores on each of the categories. Feeling, word choice, and creativity go hand in hand. The better word choice, imagery, comparisons, etc. the more creative it will be and it will have more feeling. So those are the most important things. If I may say a couple specific things: 1) you may wanna cut out the "in it" after swimming in the second stanza of verse 2. 2) also in that stanza, swimming is said twice, so maybe try to change that up. But this is really good, and you already used a lot of imagery. Maybe just like one more in each stanza of each verse and that should be fine. For the bridge and first stanza of verse 1, it kind of drifts off to "I love you" instead of "I will always be there". I'm not sure if thats what you want to do, but you should probably keep it centered on one theme. And for the bridge, keep it around the theme of always being there for the person. But maybe switch it around and ask if he/she will always be there for you, or something along those lines? Just an idea.
But this is really nice, and sorry for the really long review, I want you to win this contest!
P.S. I love your ocean metaphor :)

Re: bananahrr's songs :)
There was this guy that I had a crush on a couple of months ago, and his name was Dylan. I barely talked to him because he was in the grade above me, but he is one of the nicest people I have ever met and that's why I fell for him. :)
"Dylan"
(verse 1)
Dylan, Dylan
This feeling's killing me
Every time that I see your face
Eyes that smile
A voice that drives me wild
Makes my head spin and my heart race
But truth is, honey
I've been writing words for you
About how I feel when you're here
It's been several weeks
And my knees still go weak
This tingling feeling starts to appear
(pre-chorus)
Whoa, whoa
Can I even handle this?
Whoa, whoa
This can be a hit or miss
(chorus)
Dylan, Dylan
My heart is turning upside down
And my world's been spinning around
Going back & forth, turning in circles, stuttering
Been listening, listening
To every single word you say
Analyzing every single move you make
I'm going crazy like a hurricane, I'm tripping
All because of you Dylan
(verse 2)
Dylan, Dylan
Don't know how long I've been sitting
Just thinking about you
I've tried to shake it off,
But this feeling won't stop
Oh, no matter what I do
(pre-chorus)
Whoa, whoa
Yeah, you got me hypnotized
Whoa, whoa
Baby, you're a shining light
(chorus)
Dylan, Dylan
My heart is turning upside down
And my world's been spinning around
Going back & forth, turning in circles, stuttering
Been listening, listening
To every single word you say
Analyzing every single move you make
I'm going crazy like a hurricane, I'm tripping
All because of you Dylan
(bridge)
Come take the spotlight
You make me mesmerized once again
How many can say
Everything you say, so here's the message:
(pre-chorus)
(Whoa, whoa)
I can't fight this anymore
(Whoa, whoa)
I'm falling for you
(Whoa, whoa)
I can't lie anymore
(Whoa, whoa)
I gotta face the truth
(chorus)
Dylan, Dylan
My heart is turning upside down
And my world's been spinning around
Going back & forth, turning in circles, stuttering
Been listening, listening
To every single word you say
Analyzing every single move you make
I'm going crazy like a hurricane, I'm tripping
All because of you Dylan

Re: bananahrr's songs :)
There was this guy that used to have a massive crush on me, but I wasn't interested. I just kept on running away from him. And then I kept on thinking, "What if I did this to everybody?" So this is a song about running away from love, and I hope you like it.
"Lonely Nights"
(verse 1)
These long hours
These cold, lonely nights
Are when I lie down
And put you in my mind
So I just stay there
And think about what I could've done to make it right
Flashback to when
You first looked me in the eyes
Caught me off guard
So I looked away, maybe I
Was afraid of
Getting more lost into this surprise
(pre-chorus)
Too scared to fall in love
What was I thinking of?
(chorus)
And though I really, really wanted to
I never took a chance on you
I never took a chance on everything that we could've been
And so I left you all alone, stranded
But you turned the tables, now you're the bandit
Of all of those hearts, chasing after you for more
And I'm the one who shut the door
(verse 2)
These memories
Like a song on repeat
I keep on replaying it
Even when it haunts me
So sad that after all this time
You're gone, and now I finally start to see
Maybe it's for the best
Maybe it was the right choice to run away
And I don't wanna be filled with regret
Yet I'll always have the pain
Knowing that the opportunity came knocking
But when I locked the door, I threw away the key to keep me safe
(pre-chorus)
I wasn't prepared for the worst
And that's why I had to say goodbye first
(chorus)
And though I really, really wanted to
I never took a chance on you
I never took a chance on everything that we could've been
And so I left you all alone, stranded
But you turned the tables, now you're the bandit
Of all of those hearts, chasing after you for more
And I'm the one who shut the door
(bridge)
Whoa, whoa, whoa
It's on nights like these
When you're all I can think about
I can't run away from it
But I can't figure it out
And the worst part about
Walking away
Is filling both people
With sorrow and pain
(verse 4)
Lately I've been
Trying to do things right
But all my wrongs
Are never far in sight
So I hope this makes you stronger
'Cause if you held on any longer
We could fall
(chorus)
And though I really, really wanted to
I never took a chance on you
I never took a chance on everything that we could've been
And so I left you all alone, stranded
But you turned the tables, now you're the bandit
Of all of those hearts, chasing after you for more
And I'm the one who shut the door

Re: bananahrr's songs :)
This is one of my personal songs and I've only showed it to one other person. I wrote this last year when school ended, and I was pretty sad because I never had the chance to say goodbye to my crush. I knew I wouldn't see him for 3 months, but I just hoped he would think of me sometime during the summer even though we were apart. It's not as good as I remember it to be, but I'll share it anyways. :)
"Think of Me"
(verse 1)
I remember your face
Now I remember your voice
And I remember the shine in your eyes that showed up every time you smiled
I remember your pace
Now I had to make a choice
And now it's time to leave, it's time to go, and I'll miss you 'cause 3 months seems like a long while
(chorus)
It's been so long
I've watched you and you've become so strong
I've written a thousand words, each song
Is written for you in a way
My feelings grew
The whole time, I'm wondering if you knew
If you knew how much that I love you, that I'll miss you
So when we go down two different roads, I hope you think of me
(verse 2)
I remember that glance
The one we caught of each other
And our, our eyes met, we both turned our heads, but I recall feeling so magical
Oh I keep wishing for a chance
'Cause I miss the days when we were
Too much, but just right, when I could talk to you, and we'd laugh, and I'd try to take it all
(chorus)
It's been so long
I've watched you and you've become so strong
I've written a thousand words, each song
Is written for you in a way
My feelings grew
The whole time, I'm wondering if you knew
If you knew how much that I love you, that I'll miss you
So when we go down two different roads, I hope you think of me
(bridge)
I wish we could go back
Where I could take each opportunity
Like the time you tried to hold me, but I ran away, and now you don't see me
As I'm looking in the past,
You pass by me
And it hurts 'cause I've been wishing and hoping that something will happen
(chorus)
It's been so long
I've watched you and you've become so strong
I've written a thousand words, each song
Is written for you in a way
My feelings grew
The whole time, I'm wondering if you knew
If you knew how much that I love you, that I'll miss you
So when we go down two different roads, I hope you think of me

Re: bananahrr's songs :)
This is a song called "Taken Away" that I wrote about my friend and her ex-boyfriend. It wasn't serious or anything (I mean, c'mon, they're in middle school). She tried to walk away from him because she didn't trust him, but he told her all of these sweet things about her, and then they didn't talk to each other that much, then all of a sudden, he just broke up with her. Sorry if this song doesn't make sense, I've never been in a relationship. =p
"Taken Away"
(verse 1)
You've got a lot of things you gotta clear up
It's mixed up
Every single word you say
You've got a lot of things to explain
Why you caused me pain
Oh, day after day
Maybe it's 'cause it's never been like this
This cycle
That I've never been through before
I should've checked
'Cause what happened next
Wasn't what I was waiting for
(pre-chorus)
Could it have been non-existent communication
Or your never ending hunger for attention
The kind you never gave to me
Or the time I tried to leave
(chorus)
So tell me, tell me now
All the promises I would hear
How did they disappear?
Oh, tell me, tell me now
Why'd I trust you with my heart?
Just to see you tear it apart
Every second, every word
I remember what I heard
So baby, you can't fool me
Oh you seem to know
Every good thing to say
But all of that was taken away
All of that was taken away
(verse 2)
You had a way of swooning me
Out at sea
Under the golden sun
But a storm comes to wash it away
And the sky fades to gray
What has all this become?
(pre-chorus)
And it came out of the blue, all of a sudden
And in an instant, I'm not what you wanted
Change it up on me? Well I can twist the story too
You forgot baby that I never lose
(chorus)
So tell me, tell me now
All the promises I would hear
How did they disappear?
Oh, tell me, tell me now
Why'd I trust you with my heart?
Just to see you tear it apart
Every second, every word
I remember what I heard
So baby, you can't fool me
Oh you seem to know
Every good thing to say
But all of that was taken away
All of that was taken away
(bridge)
A few words were exchanged, but they were not enough
None of me satisfied you to gain your love
Maybe I was scared, I jumped 'cause I thought you wanted me
And for some reason, you couldn't see the possibilities
Well I'm the one who's got the last word
'Cause you had the nerve to steal my heart and run away
(chorus)
So tell me, tell me now
All the promises I would hear
How did they disappear?
Oh, tell me, tell me now
Why'd I trust you with my heart?
Just to see you tear it apart
Every second, every word
I remember what I heard
So baby, you can't fool me
Oh you seem to know
Every good thing to say
But all of that was taken away
All of that was taken away
Every second, every word
I remember what I heard
So baby, you can't fool me
Oh you seem to know
Every good thing to say
But all of that was taken away
All of that was taken away

Re: bananahrr's songs :)
I came up with the idea of this song in Science class, which I have with my old crush (and my current one;)). I was just thinking about how hard I fell for him. And even though he may not be my crush anymore, I'll always still love him somewhere inside of me.
"Fell"
(verse 1)
His laugh was like a song on repeat
His smile made you feel like you couldn't breathe
And his eyes were the center of attention in the room
You don't know if he ever had a clue
About how you dreamed of him days and nights, but you knew
Nothing then, just innocent, waiting for a a love in bloom
(chorus)
Remember the times
When he was always on your mind
Oh, remember the days
When your eyes were always on his face
And remember your heart
Beating so fast, even when you were apart
Oh, remember darling when you fell for him
(verse 2)
You melted every time he said your name
You wanted to shout out "I love you," but you were afraid
Of a fallout, of a breakdown, of him not wanting to hold you back
And oh how you wanted to take his hand
Oh how you needed for him to understand
Why you loved him, and why he should love you back
(chorus)
Remember the times
When he was always on your mind
Oh, remember the days
When your eyes were always on his face
And remember your heart
Beating so fast, even when you were apart
Oh, remember darling when you fell for him
(bridge)
Oh, oh
He moved you like the ocean
You were lost out at sea
Going in slow motion
You want to hold on tight to every memory
Darling, hold on
Oh hold on
Darling, hold on
Oh hold on
(chorus)
Remember the times
When he was always on your mind
Oh, remember the days
When your eyes were always on his face
And remember your heart
Beating so fast, even when you were apart
Oh, remember darling when you fell for him
Because you still can't let go of that feeling
You are LOVED. -

Re: bananahrr's songs :)
I just finished writing this song! It's about feeling happy around your crush, like if you find out he likes you or he asks you out. It's never happened to me, but it's nice to dream. :)
"Loving You"
(verse 1)
Thinking 'bout all of this lately
Thinking 'bout how it's been so crazy
To think that maybe we could be something
Hearing stories about the ones who never last
Somehow, I think we could do better that that
Our troubles disappearing into nothing
(pre-chorus)
And darling your words
They make the worst
Go away, and the sky turns to the best shade of blue
My heart is pounding
Your voice is sounding
Like this could be the start of something new
And if you're wondering how I feel about you
(chorus)
Well, I feel like singing out loud
And dancing around
And I don't care if anyone's watching
I feel like smiling all the time
And like the sun always shines
Just from hearing you talking
And if our hands are intertwined
Everything will be alright
'Cause I feel like singing and dancing and loving you
(verse 2)
I'm not sure how this even came about
Sneaking up on me 'cause I've had my doubts
But somehow I still got the chance
To be right next to you, to hold you in my arms
Sitting close to me, and I can feel your warmth
Please take my hand
(pre-chorus)
Well, I've never felt
Like I'm about to melt
Just from your stare, holding me
When you look into my eyes
You'll see that I'm really just
Falling into you so quickly
When you look into my heart, you'll see
(chorus)
That I feel like singing out loud
And dancing around
And I don't care if anyone's watching
I feel like smiling all the time
And like the sun always shines
Just from hearing you talking
And if our hands are intertwined
Everything will be alright
'Cause I feel like singing and dancing and loving you
(bridge)
I'm falling head over heels
So please, just make me feel
Feel like this every day
(chorus)
'Cause I feel like singing out loud
And dancing around
And I don't care if anyone's watching
I feel like smiling all the time
And like the sun always shines
Just from hearing you talking
And if our hands are intertwined
Everything will be alright
'Cause I feel like singing and dancing and loving you x2
I feel like loving you

You are LOVED. -

Re: bananahrr's songs :)
I was inspired by this song when I had this magical dream about holding my crush's hand. And I know, it sounds cheesy, but my heart was pounding throughout the whole dream, and when I woke up, I knew I had to write a song about it! But instead of make the song just about my crush, I wrote it about being there for somebody very close to you. :)
"Take My Hand"
(verse 1)
It's a big, big world
With many mistakes made
It can be so hard to keep moving
When you feel worried every day
So darling whenever
You need strength
Just look around the corner
And I'll be there to heal the ache
It's a big ocean
With all these fish swimmin'
It's so easy to get lost
With every object holding risks
So if you ever
Fall for it, if you ever get tricked
I'll still be swimmin' by your side
And we'll never split
(chorus)
When your heart stops for a moment
Or when it's beating so fast 'cause you ain't prepared
When you can't sleep at night
Or you need someone to hold you tight
Take my hand, take my hand
And you'll be alright
(verse 2)
It's a tough, tough moment
And you're feeling afraid
That you won't survive, now
That you won't win the race
But baby when you,
You need a little faith
Just know that I believe in you
And I will stay
(chorus)
When your heart stops for a moment
Or when it's beating so fast 'cause you ain't prepared
When you can't sleep at night
Or you need someone to hold you tight
Take my hand, take my hand
And you'll be alright
(bridge)
If you feel like everything is wrong
And you can't take it any longer
I'll be by your side to help you keep going
(chorus)
When your heart stops for a moment
Or when it's beating so fast 'cause you ain't prepared
When you can't sleep at night
Or you need someone to hold you tight
Take my hand, take my hand
And you'll be alright
(outro)
It's a big, big world
With many mistakes made
And if you need strength
Whisper my name

Re: bananahrr's songs :)
your songs are SWIFTICASTIC!
"This is a song called "Taken Away" that I wrote about my friend and her ex-boyfriend. It wasn't serious or anything (I mean, c'mon, they're in middle school). She tried to walk away from him because she didn't trust him, but he told her all of these sweet things about her, and then they didn't talk to each other that much, then all of a sudden, he just broke up with her. Sorry if this song doesn't make sense, I've never been in a relationship. =p:
Is that Joanna and Andrew?? It seems like i!t!

Re: bananahrr's songs :)
This is a song about loving someone, but then realizing they do nothing but hurt you. The line "But I had to take it down 'cause I didn't want to watch it fall" means that instead of watching the relationship crash and burn, you think it will be better to just let go. Hope you like it!
Picture Frame
(verse 1)
You're pretty good at playing these games
But pretty bad at letting me in on the rules
You shine when you make me go insane
But doing things besides your way may be new
And I'll wait for you to come around, but
(chorus)
You and your know-it-all mind
Something that I want to stay away from
And you and your words so unkind
Something that I fear every second
Your picture frame used to be hanging on my wall
But I had to take it down 'cause I didn't want to watch it fall
(verse 2)
You used to be the centerpiece of my table
But something 'bout you wasn't right
And you made my life so unstable
Which is why I had to turn off your light
Oh, how beautiful it was, but
(chorus)
You and your know-it-all mind
Something that I want to stay away from
And you and your words so unkind
Something that I fear every second
Your picture frame used to be hanging on my wall
But I had to take it down 'cause I didn't want to watch it fall
(bridge)
Oh, I waited through the storms and the cold,
But the sun never came
Though I wish those fights could've been resolved
You turned it into rain
So I watched the rain hit the pavement
Bit there was so much more to do with my life
(chorus)
You and your know-it-all mind
Something that I want to stay away from
And you and your words so unkind
Something that I fear every second
Your picture frame used to be hanging on my wall
But I had to take it down
(chorus 2)
You and your lightning storms
The lightning was bright, but when it hit, it stung
You were what kept me torn
I wanted you when our chances were slim to none
Your picture frame used to be hanging on my wall
But I had to take it down 'cause I didn't want to watch it fall

Re: bananahrr's songs :)
A song I wrote recently. There really is nothing to explain about it, but I hope you like it! :)
"I Wrote A Song"
(verse 1)
All of this time, I was wishing that you'd come my way
All of this time, I hoped you heard everything I had to say
But you walk by without glancing, and suddenly my heart feels hollow
But I don't wanna go being haunted living in her shadow
(prechorus)
Picking the petals off roses to see
If I was right about you wanting me
(chorus)
So you see her
The girl who's got so-called "everything"
The girl who has every boy wishing
But she got the chance to hold you
She ran away with your heart,
And you ran away with mine
So if you come to give it back
I hope you'll find
Sure, she may seem like she has it all
But I wrote a song
(verse 2)
Now that you've slipped away and fallen into her arms
I realize that you were never in reach and you were always too far
So I hoped that maybe you wanted to take this lonely girl's hand
But you pulled away when we almost touched, and I don't know if I'll understand
(prechorus)
You chose the obvious, and I was wrong
About my fairytale with you, 'cause now you're gone
(chorus)
So you see her
The girl who's got so-called "everything"
The girl who has every boy wishing
But she got the chance to hold you
She ran away with your heart,
And you ran away with mine
So if you come to give it back
I hope you'll find
Sure, she may seem like she has it all
But I wrote a song
(bridge)
I can hear us starting to break
And I can feel my heart starting to ache
I'm a girl who fell for someone who didn't feel the same way
If only you knew what I had to say
(chorus)
So you see her
The girl who's got so-called "everything"
The girl who has every boy wishing
But she got the chance to hold you
She ran away with your heart,
And you ran away with mine
So if you come to give it back
I hope you'll find
Even when you're gone
Just remember, I wrote a song
Tell me your thoughts on it! Thanks for reading! I really appreciate it.
