A Nice Soothing Song

Yesterday was the school's talent show... and I was performing in it alongside my girlfriend Dana. We sang a song which is one of our favourite songs, Ghost River by Nightwish. the song started off with Dana singing quite softly, and then I come in singing screamo and scaring the audience to death. During the interval I see two children no older than 4 years old, and realise they were in the audience. Damn. Earlier today I learned that both the children ended up crying during mine and Dana's act and all that I could say to that was "It sure was a good job I didn't know they were there. Otherwise I would of scared them a lot more."
No surprises but we didn't win the competition or get in the top 3, I guess we both knew that from the start because metal singers never seem to go anywhere in talent shows. Either way this goes towards my music GCSE and when I put lyrics to the crappy Guitar Pro 6 recording of "You Look So Pretty" my music GCSE will be mostly sorted and just missing the exam.
Oh yeah I forgot to mention, in the interval I went to give my friend Francesca a high 5 and she literally jumped out of her skin... funny as hell.

DayDream

This time when I say I've wrote a song, I give you a link to download the music. Admittedly it isn't technically a song, there are no lyrics, but its a piece of music none the less. The title of the piece is DayDream simply because it reminds me of my countless daydreams in geography.
If you remember when I said I was going to "recycle" old riffs, that is what I did for DayDream, I took the intro riff and chord pattern from The Spaceman Cometh, i used the chord pattern from Lies to make part 2 and i even used the "Unicorn Riff" as an outro.
Here is the link:

(If it sounds strange that's because its all recorded with the Guitar Pro 6 Sound Banks)
