Trev... :note1:]]> Sunday Songwriters Group BarnaBus RoX https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/y7wk27-terra/#post-328712 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/y7wk27-terra/#post-328416 Tue, 12 May 2009 03:32:37 +0000 How about "mortals"? Yes, mortals it is....I had chosen Earthlings for listeners who might not have caught who Terra was and to include all living creatures on earth, but mortals fits the context.

Thanks for the feedback, guys.

And the harmony in the chorus is really good.

Really catchy melody, I agree with KR2 though, a little too fast, made it hard to follow the words.
Terra's tears burned on her cheeks
For a flame drawn moth there's no retreat
The Earthlings all burned to a crisp
Fates were sealed with a stellar kiss Really enjoyed this verse]]> Sunday Songwriters Group jaythejoker https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/y7wk27-terra/#post-328265 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/y7wk27-terra/#post-328258 Sun, 10 May 2009 03:23:24 +0000
>Great lyrics . . . a clever idea of using the Greek gods and goddesses as the characters (with an allusion to Icarus even)
Yeah, nothing came together all week then Saturday morning it started clicking....In my first version, I had Icarus stated directly so it's nice that his allusion remains :wink:

>Nice tune too . . .
Thanks....I was really stuck to break out in a different sound....every time I try to write a melody these days...I keep playing snippets from my other songs :cry: So I said I was going to write a "ska" style song

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AesId12OKsY

.....the end result doesn't sound anything like ska to me but at least it got me to try a different chord progression :)

>I think you rushed it a little . . .
Yes, I tend to go too slow on the first recording This was a real cut and paste Frankenstein... I hope to do another version and clean it up a bit :wink:

>but I liked the double tracking (two voices) on the chorus . . . that sounds good.
I have Guitar Tracks Pro 2 now and the upgrade is in the mail.....I also bought Jamstix 2 so hopefully I will be able to add more bells and whistles as our summer break is approaching :mrgreen:

>I hope you have more of that in future songs.
Me, too!

>PS Where is Jeremy hiding?
He's moving back to the states in a little over a month and is trying to finish a 15 min sci-fi movie he is making with some high school students he teaches....I told him he could always jump back in after he is settled in his new environment :wink:

I let him know you were asking about him. :D

Thanks for the listen and post :D
