How to Write Songs in The Sims 4

To write songs in The Sims 4, players will have to first buy a musical instrument i.e. guitar, violin & piano by using the catalog. Once you have the instrument of your choice, you will have to learn it by practicing it in-game.

After you reach level 8 for the specific instrument you will be able to write a song. Follow the steps given below:

  1. Send your Sim toward their musical instrument.
  2. Interact with it and you will see the option to Write Song.
  3. There will be a few options available according to their instrument like A playful tuneA Whimsical tune, etc.
  4. More options can be unlocked once you practice and reach higher levels in the game.

It will take about 12 hours for your Sim to construct and write a song in The Sims 4. So unless you have provided with all of your Sim’s needs, hold the thought of doing it continuously.

You can pause and start the song at any time in the game. Once done, you will have to name the song accordingly and you can listen to them through your roster.

After reaching level 9 for the instrument, you will be able to license your song and earn some Simoleons in the game. Just head over to the mailbox and select the License Song option. You will start earning the royalty payments every morning, although you can only license one song a week.


The Sims 4 is a social life simulation game developed by Maxis and initially released for PC in 2014. It was later ported to Mac OS X in 2015, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in 2017.
