"10AM" (A Song)
513This is the first composition I've made in Musescore. I have others that are just partial that I might have to get back to, but I'm just glad that the music bug has returned and given me a much needed bite and sucked some of the Blood of Apathy away from me.
I made this 17 minutes long because I figured people who liked it would want an extended version that they don't have to keep replaying or hearing the music stop for a second when YT loops it over or something.
This song is pretty basic since I'm not real adroit with sheet music, so it's just the same three chords straight on through. I notice that a lot of songs, particularly in R&B, can pull that off pretty well, so I thought OK maybe I'll just do that. I hemmed and hawed about giving it a "chorus", but everything I could think of just killed the vibe of the song. Also, I know the number by tempo is way off, this is definitely closer to 90 bpm. Still gotta figure out a lot of things with this program, but it beats Mario Paint for sure!
Then there was the matter of the title. It started as "Spring Rain", but that just seemed a little cliche. So then I thought maybe "Springnight", all one word. But none of that stuff stuck. Then one morning, I was standing outside and looked to see what time it was, and it was 10:00 even. And that's when it hit me.
And of course, now I can't get the idea out of my head of writing a song for every hour of the day, like Animal Crossing does. I already have a few more ideas floating around up there. If I go through with this though, I might have to make hour long versions of each one!
