Good Job. I really like the opening line
Well there's a full moon rising, low in a hurricane sky
Full moons and hurricanes are a bad combo because the tide is
already high and there tends to be greater destruction.

Makes for some powerful imagery.

The only thing that I would change is this line: The pale moon casts a merciless light on the land,
and only because "merciless" is such a powerful word and you've used it already. Other than that minor tweek, this is really good in my opinion.

Cheers

I agree with Neil .." WOW " ..

Nice job , written very nicely ..

When you say .."Think this is going to be mostly minor chords..... "

So does that mean the pitch of the song will be higher ?

Trevor No, not really - just means I'll probably be playing Am, Dm and Em instead of the usual A D and E.....actually, I think I've got the beginnings of a riff, throwing a couple of sus2 and sus4 chords in, and a decent lead intro....

I'll work on it over the weekend.....

:D :D :D

Wow! Great work! Wonderful images! The verses are dead solid. Only thing I would like to see is a chorus to bring it all together. Wouldn't mind hearing you put it to music either.

Great job.

Full Moon Fever

Well there's a full moon rising, low in a hurricane sky,
In the frenzied clouds, looking like a demon's eye,
Bringing death and destruction, in its merciless wake,
As the night gathers strength, waiting for the storm to break,
Lightning flashes, thunder rumbles on high,
As the full moon looks down like a baleful eye.


The pale moon casts a pitiless light on the land,
Turning dreams to nightmares, castles built on sand,
Fever is burning in the creatures of the night,
The howling begins and then choruses in fright,
Thunder roars its warning cry out loud,
As the full moon madness grips the humble and the proud.

The red moon turns its savage eye to earth,
Anticipating carnage and re-birth,
The shadows warn of tempest and of flood,
Red sky hints at violence and blood,
The shades weep softly as the death-wind blows,
The full moon fever brings misery and woe.
