To incorporate a more uplifting vibe at the start, we also developed the use of the ukulele. In the end, we opened with just the ukulele and then transitioned into the other instruments to give it the more punk feel later on. I think this helped give the song the change in tonality we were looking for by opening on bright, happy chords with darker lyrics and then changing into a heavier texture and having a change of the chords when played on  guitar and bass. All in all we used a ukulele, electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic guitar and vocals.

Before performing, we decided that our song was an assortment of major and minor tonality, based around childhood dreams. I think that we met this description through the use of our instruments, particularly by opening with the ukulele to make it sound happier from the start. This gave a contrast to the darker themes in the lyrics and the later use of heavier instrumentation in the piece.

My own strength, in my opinion, was the use of my bass to make the song heavier for the punk association by playing the root notes of the chords along with the guitar. But, I think I could have improved by having a section where I could play something faster and therefore more complicated; I think this would have helped the song to be more heavier, further suiting the punk genre we wanted to incorporate.

Overall, I think our performance was a successful response to the stimulus aided by the genre we chose to use to depict it. Yet, there was a lot we could have developed and improved upon in order to make our piece better, such as the structure.
