This 'My December' is more of a light hip-hop song in the verses with a quiker beat,the chorus's are slower though.This is a project my band is working on and soon I might be able to post the backround music under the fan remixes I walk down a street Talking to all the peeps I meet Wishing I was somewhere warm Wishing I could stop the storm I wish for the sun at the break of dawn Lookin' at all of the christmas trees See people drinkin wine and lookin pleased Eating their pies and their turkey While I'm out here left to freeze And I just feel that there is something I missed that's lost out of site I wanna take back all the things that I said to make It all feel right And somehow I will find myself tonight While I look up at the stars shining bright I'll say... This is my December (My december) This my time of the year This is my December This is all so clear I remember the good winters we had But lookin' back just makes me feel sad Cos christmas time is a family thing Listening to all the chiors sing People not caring about anything But somehow we got lost in the time Ended up on the street for peeps to throw dimes I've caught the cold too many times My time is now for my time to shine I want my christmas back Something you took away from me a long time ago I want to be warm by the fire side And put the angel on top of the tree to shine and glow And I just feel that there is something I missed that's lost out of site I wanna take back all the things that I said to make It all feel right And somehow I will find myself tonight While I look up at the stars shining bright I'll say... This is my December (My december) This my time of the year This is my December This is all so clear And I (Just wish that I didn't feel like there was something I missed) And I (Take back all the things I said to make it all feel right) And I (Just wish that I didn't feel like there was somethnig I missed) And I (Take back all the things that I said to you) And I'd give my life away Just to have one christmas with you Give it all away To have someone to come home to This is my December This is my time of the year This is my December This is all so clear (And I) Give my life away (and I) Just to have one christmas with you (and I) Give it all away (and I) To have somewhere to go home to (And I) Give my life away (and I) Just to have one christmas with you (and I) Give it all away (and I) To have someone to come home to I take back all the things I said to you
oh if only I could finish the backing track and put it online to show you how wrong you are,if it was an LP rewrite it would have the same lyrical flow,this doesn't have the same lyrical flow,this is actualy a hip-hop song
Still, these LP rewrites have been done so many times before that it's lost its novelty. Theyre nothing special.
But the other ones were just for the hell of it,my band is actualy working on this. Any other comments anyone?

[/b][/quote] That really doesn't change the fact that the novelty has worn off :wth: IMO, some of it is good, but other parts just don't seem right and are just low quality really, like 'peeps' being used to keep the flow. That just might be 'cause I find that word really annoying...

i can see why they pulled the LP rewrite you do show a lot of inspiration from them, even if this is hip hop song, maybe what you need is forget to be inspired by them, just write you, show you, not you thru the way LP talk. talent's there, just show yourself without the way you are influenced by. like dig just into your juice and let that out.
Yeah heres one: Dont double post. [/b][/quote] I knew you'd say that,dude lighten up a little,it aint like I'm killing thousands of people is it @iamrighthererightnow Thats good advice and I appreciate it but our songs really are not intended to sound like LP,we've been inspired by em but we're not trying to copy their style
You should have listened to me when I said "quit whilst you're still ahead" That's the very bitter truth I'm afraid :wth:
Ok thats one way of looking at it.... ...yet you completely contradict yourself. [/b][/quote] True I contradicted myself completly there however our aim isn't to try to sound like Linkin park (apart from this) we're just inspired by them.
