I'm 24 turning 25 in 3 months and I want to write an album, but I'm too hung up on whether or not I'm too old to do so. Your thoughts, anons?

So it's not loaded stadiums or ballparks
And we're not kids on swingsets on the blacktop
And I thought at fifteen that I'd have it down by sixteen
And twenty-four keeps breathing in my face
beautiful picture.
also, i don't believe anybody can be just "too old" to write an album.

Can almost hear roller coasters, see sailboats in the sea...

lol, this is the first thing i thought of too.

What are you talking about??? either it's in you or it isn't. age has nothing to do with it. If you have something you think is worth sharing then just do it.
dude youre way too old. dont fucking write an album.
>>64183129
wrong album though.

David Bowie literally dropped an album a few days before he died this year, and you're asking if you're too old to make one
Quit trying to find excuses and just do it already

Trips of truth. Thanks, anon
The guy from lcd soundsystem was like 38 when his first album dropped, and he's been pretty successful. I think older people make better music anyone, it's just that not many start when they're older.

>too old
>25
the 'too old' is just an excuse for people who are caught up in jobs, family, studies... there's always time and resources for music.

There is no "too old", anon. Some of my favorite artists got a later start than that.

Robert Pollard was the same age as you when he started making music. Now GBV is one of the most beloved bands on this board (even if their new album wasn't very good)
25 isn't old for playing music, let alone writing music.
do you know any music theory at all?
>>64184090
I know the basics

that's cool but seriously learning keys or guitar and theory accordingly is essential for songwriting, even if you just scratch the surface technically. you should consider starting with that, getting a teacher and a study routine
OH UNCLE JOE CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT YOU KNOW
IVE BEEN HAVING MENTAL PROBLEMS
Who gives a shit senpai just do it you're making excuses
