Filling an Empty Cup

Want to write songs like the Beatles? The stones? ...Abba? Its easy..
...Learn their songs, steal the parts you like for your songs. A man once said immature artists imitate. Mature artists, steal. But seriously this is a legit and time honored way to open up your writing vocabulary and filling your empty cup w/ new ideas.

Learning Beatles songs allows the study and analysis of the blueprint of pop writing. The stones will teach (force) you to explore a different tuning of your guitar. (open g) Abba? Well im not sure what you'll learn from them per se, but hey you'll increase your stock w/ indie chicks.
