Like it was a dream to fly while you were high in the sky 

But getting higher and higher watching the sky far below 
Love a life to live and fly just watch it glow 

All these kids are in the dream 
are on the scene with plastic trees 

Things seem hard 
But it ain’t that life
Heads up high 
Everybody tonight
Love your life 
Return hope tonight 
Come on now 
Jump up high 
In the scene 
Smiles in faces
Living in the moment 
Come on now 
reach for the sky
Tonight]]> 2017-11-02 12:35:24 UTC https://padlet.com/louisclarkfitz/8ht2x53awm5g/wish/202861882 louisclarkfitz https://padlet.com/louisclarkfitz/8ht2x53awm5g/wish/202862170 G, G#, A, A, G#, G

We then wanted a slow, soulful chorus to contrast the fast tempo verses. Then when Julia's Vocals came in we had a 3rd section (bridge/pre chorus) that kept the fast tempo, disco feel flowing, and this led straight back into a chorus. The song then ends with a drum solo from mitchel and a final verse. ]]> 2017-11-27 13:57:08 UTC https://padlet.com/louisclarkfitz/8ht2x53awm5g/wish/210392493 louisclarkfitz https://padlet.com/louisclarkfitz/8ht2x53awm5g/wish/210392967 Matthew - Acoustic Guitar

It wouldn't let me post the video the normal way, so ive just had to post the link. ]]> 2017-11-27 14:06:52 UTC https://padlet.com/louisclarkfitz/8ht2x53awm5g/wish/210398605 louisclarkfitz https://padlet.com/louisclarkfitz/8ht2x53awm5g/wish/210405976 I thought the performance went very well and was one of our most innovative performances. Its a genre that nobody has really taken on before so i was very happy when our final ideas formed a soulful disco track. I think there were some areas for improvement but i think overall it was very successful. I think the way we had the drum solo towards the end, building up into a crescendo and back into the chorus. 
I think maybe the drums could have been a bit more simple, with a few less fills and more of a simple disco beat, but the drums were still very well executed. 
I think the two guitars worked well together, along with the classical element of the flute and the sliding bass, all the instruments worked well together with Jess's vocals sitting on top of them. 
I believe we added an element of fusion with the slow and calm choruses that common in lots of indie and folk songs. ]]> 2017-11-27 14:17:59 UTC https://padlet.com/louisclarkfitz/8ht2x53awm5g/wish/210405976 louisclarkfitz https://padlet.com/louisclarkfitz/8ht2x53awm5g/wish/210858496 I believe the effect i used on my amp was a very suitable effect for the genre and it guided us toward the disco vibe. The sharp, attacking chords on top of the instruments really gave it dancey feel.]]> 2017-11-28 13:08:09 UTC https://padlet.com/louisclarkfitz/8ht2x53awm5g/wish/210858496
