My new songs

Discussion in 'The Musician in U' started by MattMVS7, Mar 3, 2015.

  1. I know I said before that I was convinced that compositions cannot get across to anyone in terms of other people perceiving their emotion and how they are supposed to go in terms of their melodies and such providing that these compositions are flawed (imperfected), but I am only something like 80% convinced of that. Yes, I am going to study up on music theory all I can in order to perfect my compositions later in the future so that other people can finally understand their emotion and how they go. But surely if you sing a song you have made at least sufficiently accurate, then that song should get across to another person even despite its flaws. It wouldn't have to be perfect. It just needs to be sung accurately enough for the other person to "get it." I mean, my own family has gotten some of my melodies/songs since they sing them and they sing them correctly. So this is why I am thinking other people should get it as well.
    \nIt doesn't matter if it is a person singing "dos" into a microphone or anything else. As long as the person perceives the melodies and is able to derive the emotion that the melodies themselves convey independent of all the other lacking musical elements such as the right instruments and such, then that is all that is needed. It's just the melodies themselves that matter. For example, I can have all the greatest sounding instruments in the world and play some melody/song with it. But as long as that melody or song is nothing good and doesn't convey emotion, then the song no longer matters even despite all those great instruments that were playing it. Therefore, it's just the emotion that is conveyed from the notes themselves that matter. Yes, adding the right instruments to that melody will definitely bring out its emotion even more. But as long as the person perceives the emotion in the melody to begin with, then instruments can come later to bring out that emotion even more later on. It's just the melodies that matter now.
    \nSo that's what I'm going to do here in the meantime in this topic while also studying up on music theory and such as well which is that I am going to present to you these new songs I have sung because even my singing now is more accurate than what I did before which was just placing notes and adding instruments to them. In the past, I was unable to translate what I heard in my head. However, that ability has improved over time. But it is still nowhere near perfect. But hopefully it is enough now to the point where you might be able to perceive the melodies in my songs and the emotions they convey.
    \nTherefore, I will start off with this new song I made.  This is supposed to be a song that conveys an intense sad/moving feel.  It is gospel because the sung lyrical version of this song you hear later in the video has a gospel man choir and a gospel women choir singing the lyrics.  Again, I could only sing it with my voice since it is a song I have made in my head and not a fully produced song yet.  Also, songs usually start off with a settled feel and build their way up to the most emotionally intense part.  This emotionally intense part is what I would call the main motive of a song.  Right before the main motive, there is usually something right before them that leads into them.  Therefore, what you hear in my song is just that.  You hear the leading part and then the most intense part.  So this is not a full song yet.  It is just an example of my song.
    \nThe lyrical part in my song that has the lyrics "With my mind I open up a whole new world of symphony," that is the leading part of the song.  This part of the song has a gospel male choir singing it.  Then the lyrical part of the song that sings "Rise up you're going down," this is the most intense part of the song and has a gospel women choir singing it (although it is supposed to be sung more intense.  But I could only sing it at the intensity level that it is in this video since me singing it any more intense might of made it technically flawed).  This song is supposed to convey a sad/moving scene.  This scene would be someone special leaving.  It has a settled feel at first with the other person saying "Please don't leave me."  And then when that person leaves, it then goes into a sad/moving intense feel in which the other person bursts into tears.
    \nI first sing the instrumental of the song with "bums" to give you an idea of how it goes.  Then I sing the lyrical version.  I am thinking the sung lyrical version might be more accurate than the instrumental (though I am not sure).  Therefore, here is this new song I made to start you off.  After you listen to it, please just talk about this song in terms of how it felt to you and nothing more since emotions in music are the only things that matter to me.  Then after you have listened to it and have gave your opinions on it, then I will also post more of my other recent songs that I have tried my best to sing as well:

    \nIn conclusion, I would like to say here that my song is, in a way, similar to the song "Raisin' Me Up" from the videogame Sonic Rush. I think it has the same male and women choir that sings my song as well:
