Be conventional - PLEX

The repetition of forms sets up a grade of predictability

that is comforting to all listeners

The reason why these songs are so popular is because they work

Be conventional

Don’t waste your time

AABA

Two and two makes four

Now you got one verse

Let’s go with two

But don’t wait too long

It’s time

Here it comes

Don’t be a risky man

This is the plan:

Two more lines, the third verse is done

Well the fourth verse comes

We’re doing fine

Don’t do that!

It sounds different!
