How to format lyrics for YuE2

YuE2 reads structure from your lyrics. Clear section tags, short singable lines and a repeated hook give the arrangement something to build on; an unbroken block of prose does not. Use this format.

In short

  • Label every section: [Verse], [Chorus], [Bridge], and so on.
  • Keep lines short and singable; break lines where a singer would breathe.
  • Repeat the chorus wording exactly so it reads as a hook.
  • Keep genre, instruments and production in the style field, not in the lyrics.

A complete example

Lyrics field
[Verse]
Streetlights hum on the empty road
I count the windows, one by one
Every door I used to know
Still remembers how we run

[Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, the night is young
Sing it louder than the morning sun

[Verse]
Paper tickets in my coat
Songs we never finished, half a line

[Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, the night is young
Sing it louder than the morning sun

[Bridge]
If the city sleeps tonight
We will keep the radio on

The matching style brief

Lead with genre and mood, then tempo, instruments, vocal character, language and texture.

Style field
Nostalgic synth-pop, mid-tempo around 110 BPM, warm analog synths and electric bass, clear female lead vocal in English, airy reverb, polished 80s-inspired production.

Common mistakes

  • Leaving the lyrics empty and putting everything in the style brief.
  • Very long lines that cannot be sung in one breath.
  • Changing the chorus wording every time it repeats.
  • Mixing several conflicting genres in one brief.

Improving a weak first take

Change one thing at a time: tighten the chorus, clarify the tempo, remove a conflicting genre or name the lead instrument. Focused revisions make it clear what improved the next result.

Frequently asked questions

Which section tags can I use?

[Verse], [Chorus] and [Bridge] are the core tags; use them consistently and in the order you want the song to flow.

Can I write lyrics in languages other than English?

Name the vocal language in the style brief and write the lyrics in that language.
