A music album has limitations. 70 minutes, I believe, is the limit. Not more, not less. (Give or take a minute or two.) Because of this it's likely we will not be able to use every song that will be made available to us, and it may come down to So, to start with, we're limiting submissions to songs that already include music. (Instrumentals will be discussed on another thread, this is for lyrical songs.) If you've written a song you'd like to be considered, post here with the song title, a bit of information about it, and a link to the lyrics and music if they're posted elsewhere. Please don't actually post any lyrics here yet. This is like the signup thread for music. Likewise, if you know of a song that has been written by HWers, mention it! I know a lot of collaboration goes on in the Poetry Section of the Fireside, and not everyone down there may notice this. Link to any relevant information and we can go hunt down the author and composer if we need them! Please put each song into a new reply. Comments on previous nominations are welcome. Nominations Lullaby - Jordan Miller, Evening L. Aspen Nightmares - Grace Pennington Freshwater Tears - Katie Daniels, Elizabeth Kirkwood Purple Sky - Katie Daniels The Seeker - Jordan Miller, Aldara The Forging of the Blade - Jonathan Garner Enderion - Grace Pennington Morgon's Lament - Katie Daniels Ice Dance - Evening L. Aspen Together - NotThatShort A Slave's Cry - Elizabeth Kirkwood, Evening L. Aspen I Run - Elizabether Kirkwood |

Can we nominate others' songs? If so, with or without the permission of the people in question? |

You're such a gentleman, Mark. Katie... Mark wanted to nominate my song Nightmares. You've heard it, so... I guess I'll let you decide. I would want to tweak it some, probably. |

That may all be very true, but to get back on topic... there won't be an album to have a lead single if ya'll don't get busy with some more volunteer or nominated submissions! (You're welcome, Grace.) |

Um, by the way, the maximum is 80 minutes, and the minimum is small enough we don't have to worry about it. Anywhere between 50 and 80 minutes is a good-sized album. |

You know what, I suppose I could offer this one. I'm thinking about making a different version for my album, since this is a one-man-band mix and it would be better played by my whole band...so this special solo version could go on the Holy Worlds album. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=us2HYzrT-Gs |

A possible song is the one Seer wrote to Aldara's poem The Seeker. Of course, more instruments would have to be added and things, but it does have a general tune. (I would summon Aldara and Seer to this thread, but I can never figure out how to summon someone successfully. |

I wrote a sort of burial song for the people I created. It's kind of sad and melancholy. It's called Never Forgotten. I'm trying to get myself together to record it and put a video up, it already has music and I sing and play guitar to it. It talks about the sadness of losing someone you love in battle but how they will keep fighting nonetheless ^-^ |

The Seeker would be awesome. I've heard that one, and it has definite potential. That sounds really cool, NTS! Definitely put something up for us to listen to! |

I nominate Jonathan's instrumental song, The Forging of the Blade! I also nominate Grace's Enderion song, unless she wants it on the future sci-fi music album instead. EDIT: Oh, and while I'm at it, I'll mention that Jonathan and I both liked Eve's Ice Dance song in the other thread. |

You wrote it for sci-fi, but on the other hand, it will be a long time until the sci-fi album, so we could consider it as back-up for this album if needed. |

Actually, instead of Never Forgotten, I think this one I just wrote would be better. The problem is, I have absolutely no clue what the tune or music for it is or should be! So I need some of you awesome composers to take a look at it, if you don't mind and you're not too busy, and perhaps help me out with it... The only instrument I can play is acoustic guitar, and even that not very well... So this is going to need MAJOR help if it's ever going to make it onto the album. (On a side note, I tried recording my other song and it sounded terrible-I had to hear it played back to realize that it was extremely repetitive and boring and it stunk). Well, here's the song, so no one has to click a linketh. Quote: Together
When you're cold And you feel alone I'll be with you You won't fight on your own I'll be with you Don't be afraid As we fly through the night I won't let you go astray 'Cause I know When we fight together Nothing can stop us As we raise our banner higher No one can touch us When we fight together Trapped in a maze You can't find your way I'll be the light Scare the shadows away. 'Cause I know When we stand together Nothing can stop us As we search for the answer No one can touch us When we stand together Because I will Never leave you And I will Never forsake you We will Fight together Stand together Together! When it is over You won't survive Just wait and see Soon we'll both be alive 'Cause I know When we die together Nothing can stop us As we go to a place that's better No one can touch us When we die together Open your eyes And here we stand On a high mountain We made it, I'll take your hand. 'Cause I know When we win together Nothing can stop us As we ride to victory No one can touch us When we win together And as the smoke clears We arise I wipe the tears From your eyes Look around The enemy has fallen Hear the sound Of the trumpets calling! 'Cause I know When we are together Nothing can stop us As we battle side by side No one can touch us When we fight When we stand When we die When we win When we are Together! |
