The great thing about the phone recorder app is that it's usually within reach for most people. It's only a single track but it is easy to operate and great for getting down a chord / rhythm pattern, vocal or lyric fragment or somesuch if you're worried you might forget it. Having said that, I don't use mine much and often don't even bother to take it out with me - although in my defence my focus is on things other than writing at the moment. We might have invented a new genre — apps that are so good you can forget about htem or leave them at home!

I use the voice recorder thing all the time on my phone to remember ideas and half of the tracks on my Bandcamp page where recorded with it.

Currently sitting on 4 song ideas with absolutely no inspiration for lyrics. At this rate I might have to buy a physical newspaper for the first time in years and try the old David Bowie technique.

Someone suggested to me once that if you are stuck then google 'best selling books this year/decade' and the book titles might give you inspiration. Haven't tried it myself though. FFJ

Google is something that has served me well. What does the song sound like — maybe it reminds you of a style, a place or a person. Google whatever you have come up with and thre will be a story to tell somewhere!
