Achieving "hit writer" status has always been a formidable goal for any songwriter. Never more so however than in the 21st century. Catching the ear of the monumentally distracted, fragmented listener has never been more difficult. Getting their attention, inviting them in to your song and keeping them there for long enough for your song to become "their songâ€ requires more than being just a "good" songwriter.

Hall of fame songwriter Paul Williams said in his review of the book â€œIf there was a hit songwriters secret handshake Da Murphy would probably have included it.â€
