I felt that this research has helped me because it has made me understand more about the background of the songs and artists and can help us get into the character and the story of the songs as well as the emotions. Knowing about the key and BPM's of the songs helps me because i can work out which key i need to sing in and how fast/ slow it should be.

The reason why we chose this song is because we wanted thew complete opposite to our first cover by having different moods and emotions and different story behind them all. 'Nothing on you' is a more happy beat song with the story of finding love, whereas, 'love the way you lie pt 2' has more of a story of abusive, toxic relationships. So we wanted to show the good and bad sides to "Love" by giving two different messages.

'Nothing on you' by B.O.B and Bruno Mars

[Chorus (Condensed): Bruno Mars & B.o.B]
Beautiful girls
All over the world
I could be chasin'
But my time would be wasted
They got nothin' on you, baby (Yeah)
Nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby
Na nothin' on you

[Verse 1: B.o.B]
I know you feel where I'm comin' from
Regardless of the things in my past that I've done
Most of it really was for the hell of the fun
On the carousel, so around I spun
With no directions, just tryna get some
Tryna chase skirts, livin' in the summer sun
And so I lost more than I had ever won
And honestly, I ended up with none

[Pre-Chorus 1: B.o.B]
There's so much nonsense, it's on my conscience
I'm thinkin' maybe I should get it out
And I don't wanna sound redundant, but I was wonderin'
If there was somethin' that you wanna know (That you wanna know)
But never mind that, we should let it go (We should let it go)
'Cause we don't wanna be a TV episode (TV episode)
And all the bad thoughts, just let 'em go
(Go, go, go, go)

[Chorus: Bruno Mars & B.o.B]
Beautiful girls
All over the world
I could be chasin'
But my time would be wasted
They got nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby, na nothin' on you
Nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby, na nothin' on you
They might say hi (Hi)
And I might say hey (Hey)
But you shouldn't worry
About what they say (Why?)
'Cause they got nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby, na nothin' on you
Nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby, na nothin' on you

[Verse 2: B.o.B]
Hands down, there will never be another one
I been around and I never seen another one
Because your style they ain't really got nothin' on
And you wild when you ain't got nothin' on
Baby, you the whole package, plus you pay your taxes
And you keep it real while them others stay plastic
You're my Wonder Woman, call me Mr. Fantastic
Stop, now think about it

[Pre-Chorus 2: B.o.B]
I've been to London (Yeah), I've been to Paris (Yeah)
Even way out there to Tokyo (Tokyo)
Back home down in Georgia (Yeah) to New Orleans (Yeah)
But you always steal the show (Steal the show)
And just like that girl you got me froze (Got me froze)
Like a Nintendo 64 (64)
If you never knew, well now you know
(Know, know, know, know)

[Chorus: Bruno Mars & B.o.B]
Beautiful girls
All over the world
I could be chasin'
But my time would be wasted
They got nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby, na nothin' on you
Nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby, na nothin' on you
They might say hi (Hi)
And I might say hey (Hey)
But you shouldn't worry
About what they say (Why?)
'Cause they got nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby, na nothin' on you
Nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby, na nothin' on you

[Bridge: B.o.B]
Everywhere I go
I'm always hearin' your name
And no matter where I'm at
Girl you make me wanna sing
Whether a bus or a plane
Or a car or a train
No other girl's in my brain
And you the one to blame

[Chorus: Bruno Mars & B.o.B]
Beautiful girls
All over the world
I could be chasin'
But my time would be wasted
They got nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby, na nothin' on you
Nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby, na nothin' on you
They might say hi (Hi)
And I might say hey (Hello)
But you shouldn't worry
About what they say (Why?)
'Cause they got nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby, na nothin' on you
Nothin' on you, baby
Na na na nothin' on you, baby, na nothin' on you

Meaning to our cover song "Love The Way You Lie"

# data[].attributes.body
The meaning of the song 'Love the way you lie" is about an abusive relationship where they have refusal to separate. Also in real life, Rihanna was abused by er ex boyfriend Chris Brown and Eminem abused his ex wife Kim. So they were trying to spread awareness of abusive relationships and what they can be like. Some people thought that it was a bad idea of the song because young people would listen to it. for e.g. " Just gonna stand their and watch me burn, well thats alight because i like the way it hurts"

what i wanted to find out about my questionnaire was for singers, what there favourite type of music was, if they warmed up/how they warmed up.

The results that i got from my questionnaire was that most people voted that there favorite genre was Hip Hop, rather than Rock and Rap. Also that nearly everyone except for 1 voted that there prefer to sing Pop music than Ballard and Rock. I found out that 6/7 people warm up before performing. I wasn't that surprised by my results because i thought that Pop music is the most popular genre that people listen to and is most played on Radio's/TV.

These results help me with my project because it influences me in the type of genre music i choose as most people voted Pop. It also helps me with my project to give me different ideas on how to warm up before my performances.

I felt that for my questionnaire i could of asked more people to make the answers more balanced out as there were some of the answer options that wasn't chose.

Love The Way You Lie P2 by Rihanna and Eminem.

[Rihanna]
On the first page of our story
The future seemed so bright
Then this thing turned out so evil
I don’t know why I’m still surprised
Even angels have their wicked schemes
And you take that to new extremes
But you’ll always be my hero
Even though you’ve lost your mind

[Chorus:]
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
But that’s all right because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
But that’s all right because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
Oh, I love the way you lie

[Rihanna]
Now there’s gravel in our voices
Glass is shattered from the fight
In this tug of war you’ll always win
Even when I’m right
‘Cause you feed me fables from your hand
With violent words and empty threats
And it’s sick that all these battles
Are what keeps me satisfied

[Chorus]

[Rihanna]
So maybe I’m a masochist
I try to run but I don’t wanna ever leave
'Til the walls are goin’ up
In smoke with all our memories

[Eminem]
It's morning, you wake, a sun ray hits your face
Smeared makeup as we lay in the wake of destruction
Hush baby, speak softly, tell me you're awfully sorry
That you pushed me into the coffee table last night
So I can push you off me
Try and touch me so I can scream at you not to touch me
Run out the room and I’ll follow you like a lost puppy
Baby, without you I’m nothing, I’m so lost, hug me
Then tell me how ugly I am, but that you’ll always love me
Then after that, shove me, in the aftermath of the
Destructive path that we’re on, two psychopaths but we
Know that no matter how many knives we put in each other’s backs
That we’ll have each other’s backs, ’cause we’re that lucky
Together, we move mountains, let’s not make mountains out of molehills,
You hit me twice, yeah, but who’s countin’?
I may have hit you three times, I’m startin’ to lose count
But together, we’ll live forever, we found the youth fountain
Our love is crazy, we’re nuts, but I refuse counsellin’
This house is too huge, if you move out I’ll burn all two thousand
Square feet of it to the ground, ain’t shit you can do about it
'Cause with you I’m in my fuckin’ mind, without you I’m out it

[Chorus]

I love the way you lie [3x]

We were searching through YouTube for an instrumental that we could use for our mashup cover. We found this one and we all started individually to try and fit some songs onto the beat. We all seemed to like this beat and managed to get quite a few songs to go with it. It was also a simple beat which made it easier to fit the melody of the songs.

Shure SM58-
This is one of the most famous dynamic microphones in the world. it is good because in big areas like arena's, the microphone doesn't pick up all the sound in the area which is good for vocalists as the mic would mainly pick up their voice.
Shure SM57-
This microphone is more proactive for applicants that aren't vocals. So guitars, base, pianos etc would be good for recording with this mic. This microphone is more versatile.

The Shure SM58 would be the better option of stage microphone to have as it has better recording/vocal quality that will pick up good sound of the vocals and nothing more.
