Incidentally
#melodychallenge
Health warning. I put this together last night and this morning so it is only the lightest sketch (scratching?) of a song. Also, I haven’t played the melody on an instrument. I’ve employed some “do,da,ba,bop” scatting which some may find distressing. I certainly found it weird. At the moment it feels like a bit of incidental music rather than a fully formed song. So I’ll call it ”Incidentally”
Lovely melody and I can imagine this will be a beautiful song when you have some lyrics. Love the guitar accompaniment 😃
Love this Alan. Wish it wasn’t a melody challenge so I could hear your lyrics! I was writing some in my head as I was listening, would love to add some next month
This is a cracker of a melody Alan. Hope I can find the time to explore some lyrics 😉
This is good Alan and the Dadadada kind of gives the potential lyricist a good guide on where they might go with it. Really helpful.
Hey Alan
First of all, great finger picking. (I’m useless at it).
I think your vocalisations will help the lyricist with the feel and mood of the song really well.
“ That was weird” is the sort of title I would use on my stuff! Might have to pinch it😂😂😂👍
A cracker of a tune Alan! Really motors along with gusto. This is a very weird challenge 😅 but then I guess it feels that way because it’s challenging! Excellent job. Looking forward to hearing how this comes out.
Quality! Very strong rhythmically which drives the song forward constantly. Uplifting with a tinge of sadness in there too. Can’t wait for the album.
Another really catchy melody Alan. Love it!
Another cracker Alan. Love the rhythm of the melody against the picking, hope someone picks this up.
Another great melody. It seems to be harder to hold onto the melody when there are no words to go with it but this is definitely a good one.
Love this Alan! Guitar part sounds gorgeous, chords are lovely, melody is lovely, very singable! I agree with Bec, the rhythm of the melody against the picking is very enjoyable!
Looking forward to hearing this as a completed song!
Thank you so much for your comments! Really appreciate you listening and taking the time to comment! xxx
I’ve a feeling you’re going to have lots of lyrical offerings for this one, Alan. It really works, as does your scatting. Sometimes weird is good! Embrace the weird 😎.
Super !!
