Hey there. Finally, a new song.

I know, right? It's awesome. Can't wait, can you.

It's a demo, another English cover of a (surprise!) Japanese song. This time, I changed the title (because it wasn't in English). At least it's the exact translation.

It's also a ska-punk song (and they're an all-girl band). I had to... make it work somehow, but I think I did. alright all things considered. Took me forever to make it. I swear. I was this close to killing my already broken computer.

Oh, and the chorus. It needs work. It was silly and fun, but... repetitive.

Hope you enjoy. :)

Also, here are the lyrics.
=========================
You know, I finally cut my hair, but why does no one seem to care?
Do you think, f'they could they would stop and stare?
Explain how much time flew by, or tell me why I should try...
Could I ever reach the sky?

Should I close my eyes and just listen closely to the downpour, or
Look up at the sky, where the clouds are forced against where the birds will soar?
I think I might just walk out that door!

A bicycle, a bicycle, a bicycle, a bicycle, a bicycle!
I pedal on, pedal on, pedal on, pedal on, pedal along
Because right now, because right now, because right now, because right now, because right now,
I'm riding my, I'm riding my bicycle, because there's someone I want to see.

You know, I think I once saw a scene, was straight off the movie screen
A girl cried and drowned the world and all inbetween
But when the credits rolled, unknowingly sad and cold
Because the rain came, as was foretold

I'm always too slow; can't I figure out what I adore, or
Look up at the sky, where the clouds will invite the wind to come explore?
I think I might just walk out that door!

A bicycle, a bicycle, a bicycle, a bicycle, a bicycle!
I pedal on, pedal on, pedal on, pedal on, pedal along
Because right now, because right now, because right now, because right now, because right now,
I'm riding my, I'm riding my bicycle, because there's someone I want to see.

A bicycle, a bicycle, a bicycle, a bicycle, a bicycle!
I pedal on, pedal on, pedal on, pedal on, pedal along
Because right now, because right now, because right now, because right now, because right now,
I'm riding my, I'm riding my bicycle, because there's someone I want to see.

i like it

good effort man

Bleh

Well, it's okay, but I don't really find it very funny. The recording quality wasn't the best at all and I think you could have really done a lot to fix this. Mic placement, recording the lyrics and guitar part separately and running them through a mixer would have helped a lot.

The singing wasn't bad really, and the guitar playing was good too, but number one this isn't appealing to me at all, and number two it wasn't recorded well. The two coupled together just don't really do it for me. Popping noises because the mic is clipping the decibels doesn't work with a song that's supposed to be melodic I don't think.

-RRC-

Ryanson responds:

Thank you.

For the "funny" bit, I think what I meant was "awkward." The repetition of the words in the chorus felt funny to me, i.e. slightly awkward.
