Rhyming with Coronavirus

March 12, 2020 by Simon Hawkins in Songwriting

Looks like co-writing songs online might become even more popular over the next few weeks, especially for any co-writers who are stuck in Europe.

So, I wondered if there’s anything that might rhyme with the word “Coronavirus”, a new word for most of us?

There are many rhyme dictionaries out there but my favorite online one right now is this:

www.rhymebrain.com

Here’s what I found:

  • Sinus (nice, maybe for a fun song?)

  • Guidance?

  • Shyness?

  • Science?

Not a lot more, really. And I was looking for phrases, rather than simply rhyming with “virus” on its own.

So I coded the whole thing “Coronavirus” into my own rhyming database, SongTools, and here’s what it came up with:

  • Your love and kindness

  • And people like us

  • Guilt behind us

  • Find your brightness

  • Hands of kindness

  • Striking likeness

With smaller phrases:

  • God designed us

  • Sometimes childish

  • Kill with kindness

  • The righteous

  • By wireless (that’s where we’re going to work soon!)

  • Glory in the highest

If we’re all staying at home for a month to get through Coronavirus, feel free to have a crack with any of these!

God bless and look after yourself!
