porter song person

[Telephalsion]

Okay porter, I need a melody for this. I'm thinking this kind of pace for the chorus:

(4/4)

1 ½ ½ 2
1 ½ ½ 1 1 2 (pause)
1 ½ ½ 2
1 ½ ½ 1 1 2 (pause)
1 1 1 1 ½ 2
½ ½ 1 1 ½ 2 1 1 2

I bet you can edit sometihng for the better, now for the lyrics:

chorus 1:

How can it be?
How can I feel like this?
Why is it so?
That I can crave your kiss
When all I have of you
Is a pair of pictures and some words.


Verse 1:

It was a day
Like any other day
the sun it shone
altohugh it wasn't may

You came to me,
by a coincidence,
a common friend,
let us meet.


Chorus 2:

Please tell me why
Why I do think of you
Oh tell me now
The reason why I do
When all I have of you
Is a pair of pictures and some word.


Verse 2:

Oh yes I do
how can I not do so
You're a vixen
You should know

You said those words
like no other has
but I refused
to say them back


Chorus 3:

I do not know
what I do want form thee
you are my muse
but what more are you to me?
when all I have of you
is a pair of pictures and some words

[Porter]

I hope you realize that 4/4 time is four beats per measure and a 1/4 note gets one count....correct me if im crazy - er... wrong, but it seems some are gonna be 6/4 or you are going to have a 2 count pause. If you need to maintain the time sig of 4/4, do so....I'd like to give it a try if you dont mind. Gimme a day or so, lemme get my sax from school, and i can get you a good tune...for an ameture ......goddamn hard to spell word

[Porter]

he means individual notes. He's just singing what he wants. In fact he probably has a melody in his head he just matched to that.

[Telephalsion]

Yes I have a melody, and yes i've noticed that it's crewed up a bit, but then it doesn't really sound according to those notes... blarhg, I'll let porter fit sometihng up and see how it is then give some guidelines for improvement to fit the lyrics

[Teenr0cker]

Wirlich? Schade! Es tut mir leid (that's 'really? damn. It pleases me not' in German) I kinda understood halfway through the post, but I thought it was just the sleep deprivation...>_>...but still...I even out a melody and the lyrics seem to work with it....

[Vaylos]

er wait....are those like the actually beat/rhythm? or are those the notes he posted, i.e. half step, whole step, etc. *blink* er....mebbe I'll think of something in my spare time as far as melody. I tend to write a lot of gloomy/melancholy sounding stuff.

*added* er....is it okay to play around with some of the rhythms a little? It feels kinda like some of the lines don't quite fit with the words in my head...but maybe i'm crazy hehe.

[Telephalsion]

1 = hole beat
½ = half beat

etc.

yeah play around... I'm to lazy and I haveto much physics to do it myself
