Final choice of song and a rough guide to what i am planning to do

I have finally chosen 'The Alps' as my final choice of band, because their songs have dynamics, sound professional and have enough lyric variety to create an interesting narrative. These are the lyrics to their songs which i am considering.


‘The Shining’ by ‘The Alps’ Lyrics


You’re the shining,

You’re the shining,

You’re the spark,

You’re the sparkle,

You’re the sparkle in the dark,

You’re the shining yeah


You’re the burning

You’re the burning

You’re the flame

You’re the flaming

You’re the flaming through the rain

You’re the shining yeah


You lift the world from my shoulders baby

You lift the world from my shoulders baby

You lift the world from my shoulders baby

You’re the shining

You’re the shining


You’re the shining

You’re the shining

You’re the light

You’re the lighthouse

You’re the lighthouse in the night

You’re the shining yeah


You’re the blinding

You’re the blinding

You’re the blaze

You’re the blazing

You’re the blazing through the haze

You’re the shining yeah


You lift the world from my shoulders baby

You lift the world from my shoulders baby

You lift the world from my shoulders baby

You’re the shining

You’re the shining yeah


La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la


‘As it comes’ by ‘The Alps’ Lyrics


I don’t want to spoil the party,

I don’t want to spoil the fun,

I don’t want to think about tomorrow,

We’ll take it as it comes,


I don’t need no weather forecast,

For today we got the sun,

I don’t know if it will rain tomorrow,

Well take it as it comes


Will this feeling last forever?

I don’t know … take it as it comes

Will we always be together?

I don’t know … take it as it comes


I don’t need no fortune teller,

I don’t need no crystal ball,

I don’t want to look around the corner,

Well take it as it comes,


Will this feeling last forever?

I don’t know … take it as it comes

Will we always be together?

I don’t know … take it as it comes


Will this feeling last forever?

I don’t know … take it as it comes

Will we always be together?

I don’t know … take it as it comes

As it comes

As it comes


Although the lyrics are less repetitive in 'As it comes' as a group we have decided to use 'The shining' because there are more dynamics within the music and there is plenty of imagery in the lyrics.


*Update:


As a group we having trouble finding enough ideas to fill the entire song of The Shining for this reason we have discovered a new profoundly better song with a greater narrative potential called 'Nobody's Home' by The New York Fund. For more information view post called 'The New York Fund'.
