Here is a song I wrote (well...the lyrics, at any rate):
Fukushima Fallout
CHORUS
Shouldn't Kony clue You?
They're really out to do You
Undo You to screw You
So...
Hear My dire call-out:
Fukushima fallout!
More than a year and nothing is done
Water poured over with nothing won
Fouling the seas, polluting the air
Radioactive, without a care
Humans who, helpless, watch from afar
Fear that a trembler opens ajar
Teetering housings, fuel rods not spent
Loosed from the room in which they are pent
CHORUS
Shouldn't Kony clue You?
They're really out to do You
Undo You to screw You
So...
Hear My dire call-out:
Fukushima fallout!
Mox rods are deadly yet there they sit
Once they are open death will not quit
Right now the Geigers, up from the norm,
Read that the leaks still are in storm
Particles fall with rain from the sky
Carefully step out, try to stay dry
Fields all over have no safe lid
Even organics hold hot death hid
CHORUS
Shouldn't Kony clue You?
They're really out to do You
Undo You to screw You
So...
Hear My dire call-out:
Fukushima fallout!
Kelp is now deadly and so is fish
Milk is not safe; there's naught for Your dish
Water and air and the roof o'er Your head
Children who play now will all be dead
Who do You think let go on so long
The crisis We see sounding the gong?
Evil satanic elite on top
These are the ones that We need to stop
CHORUS
Shouldn't Kony clue You?
They're really out to do You
Undo You to screw You
So...
Hear My dire call-out:
Fukushima fallout!
Fukushima fallout!
Fukushima fallout!
No One? No One???
Aw, c'mon!
That's quite cool ( the poetry, not the meaning ). I could turn that into a Roger Waters satirical type song.
Alarms sounding...
Explosions...
little kids coughing...
Electrical sounds...
Searing sounds...
(dinner conversations in the background... Kids asking whats for dinner... Mommy answering I'm sorry kids, the water, foods etc contaminated -were having some more yummy potassium Iodine instead.)
Sprinkle in some synthe and guitar and I'm sure the whole thing would fly.
However, TPTB would probably plant me in a hole, right next to the radioactive daffodils that grow.
Not if it was released on the web anonymously... Have a synth vocal (anonymous?)...
Heh. I'm not copyrighting these lyrics. They were inspired by thoughts I had - been thinking about Fukushima for a year and reading the report from the congresscritter that just went and took a look... Well, I rather felt I had to express.
I will attempt a soundtrack for this, maybe something Ambient.... ::)
First i will copy this text, sounds like fun!
But i need a female singer (with a sexy voice of course) ::)
Ideas, anyone?

That would NOT be Me! LOL! I have been told to "Please don't sing!!!" More than once, and by more than one person.
Try this.
I spoke the chorus in so you can see where the chorus is, but i sound like a gay frog in a drainpipe :o Must have been that xxx ale i had last night....
Just a try-out, but let me know what you think ;D It's the first number in the list on the right.

I like it - the sound - but... Can't understand it. LOL! And... It's Fuk
ushima, not Fukeeshima.
Fukoo shima. [grin]
Nice music!
I can change it, no problem ;D
The mixing takes up most of the time, and i need a better mike 8)
I will remix it... ;D
Will await with bated breath. [smile]
I've re-arranged it, with all the text ;D
I may have changed a word or 2 to make it fit the music (call it poetic license ;D) but i have credited you as the author, Amy :)
Still not happy with it, but we're getting there...

I thought of the music while making my big tesla coil ;D
Been having computer problems - fixed well enough for now - I hope. So sorry for the delay.
Getting better, Luke, but... The lyrics are still difficult to hear overall. I would love to have them crystal clear. But I will say this: I am not too picky. If this were the final (and it may be [grin]) I am happy with it. If You do do more with this... Throw in "NO NUKES!" nice and loud and clear! LOL!
Will do :D
After hearing it a few times, i think it's awful, i will have to remix it again, maybe with a female computer voice?
One of my other computers has an excellent speech program, so i will dust it off & fire it up this weekend....LOL!
I may be a lot of things, but a singer i aint!
PWM
:o
Hey, whatever works for You. [smile] I like the computer voice idea - and don't forget "NO NUKES!"
Thanks so much!
