Cleverness in music can manifest in many forms, but it often leads to a lack of cohesion in the final product. New songwriters typically aim to showcase their skills, resulting in arrangements that overcomplicate rather than enhance the music.

When individual elements become too conspicuous, they risk overshadowing the song's essence.
