Part 1 From finding a song to playing it. Finding it.

Part 1 describes the selection process. I go to http://www.mdani.demon.co.uk/para/random.htm and enter starting number 32 and ending number 384 to get a random number in that range. That is the page where I will find the song to work on. I also divide up the page into 8 equal parts and then again use the random number generator to get a number between 1 and 8. That gives me the section of the page where the song is located. In this example, a song called "That's What Love Is All About" was selected through this random selection process. I then proceeded to come up with a melody for the lyrics. The uncut video recording took about an hour and 27 minutes, so around an hour is how long it took me to compose and come up with a satisfactory take for the finished composition. I cut out the middle part full of trials and errors and left the finished product to part 2.
--------
For this song, it took me around a half an hour to come up with the basic melody (guitar chords, progression, singing, rhythm, etc.) and another half hour to get the song sung correctly, well, correctly means with a few mistakes. Part 2 shows the finished composition of ALTERNATIVE MELODY to the selected song. So head on over to watch part 2. Thanks for watching.

The lyrics are posted in part 2.

Thank you. ha ha. It is hard to keep it up. I get distracted by silly things such as work, sleep, eating, studying, and just plain laziness. I hope to record some new stuff soon. pray that I don't get lazy.
