make a list and define each meaning of what u think makes a good song

example, shit like...
metaphors-refering to something else
similes- sentences using "like" or "as"
wordplay (overall rhyming)
content of song- Worth rapping about
voice-
beat-
Delivery-
flow-

i may missed a few, the last 2 i didnt put definitions b/c my opinion isnt accurate

so add or take away to my list to what u think makes a good song or not then define them

i see what you're trying to do there, perry, but i think where you went wrong was with the word "formula".

life's not that simple, and music is certainly not that simple as well.

there may common ingredients along the way - but none are compulsary.
