version 2 - added LilacAmy11's singing part in. Added a Boyz2Men voacl breakdown after that part.


Family. Yup, you. This one is for you.

This one I have left space for ANYONE (no matter how you see yourself as a "musician") to contribute - see collabo. Hopefully we can achieve something that is akin to a chorus of RECorders.

For a starting point, there are 2 parts that you can sing a long to (one is pretty much spoken word and the other is just silly singing, so don't be shy!). The first comes in around 1:20 and all you have to say is:

"no seed, no water (3x). no nothing"

The second part is around 2:30 (please contribute so we can bury my lackluster vox!:
"family is my.
family is my.
Your family is my sanity.
family is my mmmm. mmmm.
family is my mmmm. mmmm.
Your family is my sanity. Your family is my sanity.
La da da dee. La da da dee. Da Da"

Then if you're feeling extra spicy you can do the 1st "no seed no water no nothing" part again. Or I can just edit it in there! Also, the outro could use some singing - maybe just humming or more lalalas, dumdeedas.

The song is 83 BPM.

It is a simple oldies/doowop blues progression. It is a love song. My friend Melissa has already contributed cello but this could use so much more! Pianists, strings, vocalists, guitarists (might be cool to add some layer on the line that's already there).

We're also gonna need some verse lyrics and 1st chorus lyrics. It would be pretty neat if the whole thing was kept at a level where everyone could sing and contribute. :)

nontoxiccolors with the great icon.
