Title: Lyric Question, need help ! Post by: Syd Vega on October 18, 2004, 03:32:15 PM Hey !
I got a question for the american/english people here: I play guitar for a german band and our singer wants to call a new tune "She don't like" because the words fit very well for the chorus. My Question is: is that ok ? lol or just bad grammar ?? Some say it's ok, it's slang, others say it HAS to be "She doesn't like" which of course wouldn't work...thanks alot for helping me out !!

What don't she like? maybe if i heard the song it would make sense then, but at first glance, it's kinda like "huh?" it's left hanging it seems. that's just my opinion though, if you guys like it, it's your song, not mine. good luck!? :peace:

Post by: N.I.B on October 18, 2004, 05:12:38 PM "She dosn't like" sounds (no offence to any of you ot there) like its from an immigrant (again no offence, my parants are immigrants) and isnt exactly the bad grammer u see being used by rock bands (eg ain't, ta, 'caus) so a better title would be "She Don't Like" or "She don't Like It"

the part of the song goes like "..and she don't like the way I blahblahblah...." It's basically about all the things a girlfriend bitches about...you know what i'm talking about ! ;) So I guess it's ok to use that title...again, thanks !! :beer: Title: Re: Lyric Question, need help ! Post by: Mama Kin on October 21, 2004, 12:09:23 AM I'd use the title, but perhaps like this
She Don't Like... It is still poor grammar, but the 3 periods after "like" indicate it's a just part of a quote. I'm not sure if that's the best way to describe it, but if I wrote it, I'd call it "She Don't Like..." Title: Re: Lyric Question, need help !
