Tom - 5 Songs by CHANTELLE STREET https://padlet.com/streetchantelle/rf8dyn4u5cvf en-us 2017-03-17 15:20:00 UTC 2025-10-28 14:22:50 UTC hello@padlet.com Play To Win streetchantelle https://padlet.com/streetchantelle/rf8dyn4u5cvf/wish/160828578  I wrote this song with producer, Nick Stez. The concept is about the game of dating etc. I wrote the lyrics to express how men perform predictable behaviour to get their prize (women.) Women are taking over, and women are beginning to treat the system how men do. They are playing to win.

 The structure is very simple, verse, chorus, verse chorus,  middle 8, chorus. 

The sample is taken from Snoop Dogg & Dre's The Next Episode. I made creative decision to sing the 'la-de-da-de-das,' using the same melody as the sample.

 The harmonies are are supposed to pull the hearts of the listener in the same way that harmonies did in 1950s blues and gospel. 
The song is about heartbreak, which is why we have used big ]]> 2017-03-17 15:44:33 UTC https://padlet.com/streetchantelle/rf8dyn4u5cvf/wish/160831848 This Is Not Reality streetchantelle https://padlet.com/streetchantelle/rf8dyn4u5cvf/wish/160833248  For this composition I wanted the lyrics to contain poetic description. You will notice a big use of metaphors and similes.
 The song is about the state of bliss of taking a moment to yourself and being far from materialistic and artificial things. 
The wavey harmonies and soft breathy vocal is an artistic way of portraying euphoria and being in a dream-like state. ]]> 2017-03-17 15:50:22 UTC https://padlet.com/streetchantelle/rf8dyn4u5cvf/wish/160833248 Kaleidoscopic Eyez streetchantelle https://padlet.com/streetchantelle/rf8dyn4u5cvf/wish/160835363  There are no instruments in this composition as I wanted to show how the human voice can be the instrumentation. 
 Admittedly, this song is very influenced by the work of James Blake. 
I write about Kaleidoscope eyes that hypnotise the mind as I think this suits the harmonies particularly well. ]]> 2017-03-17 15:58:41 UTC https://padlet.com/streetchantelle/rf8dyn4u5cvf/wish/160835363 Luv Your Face, But U Make Me Feel Sick streetchantelle https://padlet.com/streetchantelle/rf8dyn4u5cvf/wish/160836207  The lyrics for this piece are very conversational and laid back. The rapping is heavily influenced by Mike Skinner from The Streets and the content is influenced by the works of J Cole. 
 I originally wrote this song to a mellow hip-hop beat but for this assignment I re-performed it to a drum track. 
 I've tried to be really honest with the lyrics by describing how in a relationship you can absolutely love someone but hate them so much.

LYRICS

 I love your face, but you make me feel sick
 
 Warm summers day, cold frosty night
 I’d still want your company if seasons justified,
 the crunching of the leave, as we sat and smoked the reef,
 in the park opposite, my apartment underneath,
 The tree was like a bubble, admittedly I’d struggle,
 Translating your estate lingo like a puzzle,
 attire said your trouble, 
 but judging by your cuddle,
 deep inside facade was an angel undercover,
 you were an angel undercover,
 
 I love your face, but you make me feel sick,
 I love your face, but you make me feel sick,
 I love your face, but you make me feel sick,
 I love your face also I hate it,
 
 Everyday embracing the pace of our direction,
 toxic in a way, but dopamine's a bitch cause, 
 something bout your presence,
 made my body feel so present,
 in the room, and in my soul,
 like a spiritual kinda tension,
Was a spiritual kinda tension
 My characters complex and,
 and somehow you would get that,
 rationality was a quality you breed,
 lucky me, no seriously, 
 no sarcasm,
 we had a connection like a quantum twin atom,
 
  I love your face, but you make me feel sick,
 I love your face, but you make me feel sick,
 I love your face, but you make me feel sick,
 I love your face also I hate it,
 
 How did we get here?
 Strangers and best friends,
 You stole my heart yeah,
 once upon a time

 I love your face, but you make me feel sick,
 I love your face, but you make me feel sick,
 I love your face, but you make me feel sick,
 I love your face also I hate it,
