In week 2 of my FMP I wrote lyrics and a melody that I would like to use for my song. I also starting thinking of a story that I could tell through my lyrics and talk about my feelings.
Recording
In recording I started writing some lyrics and some lyrics ideas and spoke to the people I am working with on what I want to write about and what kind of style I want to write. I also started thinking about my research focus and how I will research vocal techniques and what I can use to research. I started thinking about looking at documentaries, books and websites and other helpful information that can help me in my researching.
Performance
In performance I wrote a verse and a chorus that I can use. My lyrics so far are:
Everyone seems to have their lives on track, All see is my future all black.
Motivation disappeared, Lost my passion, i’m in fear, Just wanna leave.
Wanna scream, wanna be fine with myself, Have no confusion, only time can tell,
Get a job and a life, all I hear is 9 to 5 is where I should be.
But I have,
Confusion, When i’m lying on my own,
I’m losing, everything i’ve ever know,
I’m bruising, My heart in all it’s places,
Don’t know. Where to go,
I’m confusion.
These are the lyrics that I have but I may change them or get rid of some to make it flow more and sound better. Me and Lisa also started thinking of chords and other things we can put in the song.
MIDI
In MIDI I went over my proposal and got my feedback back so that I can understand what I need to put into it to make it more useful. I also wrote my blog and went through what my next plans are and how I am going to make them work. I am also going to be sending my vocals that I have recorded on my phone to Lisa so she can make some chords to it to start making the song more of a song. Once we have some of the chords we can finish the song and I can write more lyrics. I can also start thinking of harmonies and other things to add into my song that will make it better and more professional.
