What is your name?

Sam, I forgot to include your chorus as you had originally written it, in my post #37 above. I have now added it.

It's Craig.

In your verse #4, you mention babe. Does that mean that this song is about a guy writing about a girl?

Thanks!

Your spelling could be improved, and I'm trying to help you with the placement of your words for your song. Sometimes for songs and/or poetry, it's okay to break some of the normal rules for punctuation and spelling as well as grammar. Have you tried using the Spell Check at the bottom of the rectangle where you answer questions?

Because of the site upgrade, it hasn't been working. I like to use the one at the top right of the rectangle that has the little ABC above it. It works great! Have never had a problem with it. I think that if you click on it, that you will have to download it and it will also be integrated into the browser that you normally use.

Thanks any way I have to go now I will be back on around tomorrow same time

Xx
Thanks love
Sam

Thanks! If you're a girl, is your name really Sam? I understand if you have to go. It's all right!

I'll be back tomorrow also, and looking forward to further developing the song that you are wanting to write. So far, it seems to be going pretty well.

I'm not sure exactly what time though, because I have to lead a very large number of men in a Guest Night for one of the local barbershop choruses that I direct. We usually go out and have something that's called an "afterglow" after those kinds of events. Usually we go to an restaurant type of place.

If you have checked out the site that has the Virtual Keyboard on it, I would appreciate knowing what you think about it. Using it in the development of this thread as well as in the development of your song could really come in handy!

Thanks!

Yes I am a girl and my name is samantha elizabeth but sam for short

Yea I saw the keybord its cool

Looks like I just missed you, Sam! I am on now. Just got back home a little while ago.

Heyy I'm still on

It looked like you had logged off. I'm going to enable you to see that I'm also online now.

No I hadn't lol I had just closed the browser

Thanks! So, that's why the site wasn't "seeing" you anymore as being online here.

I think that I asked you on your other thread something about how much piano you do know how to play. Would you please tell me a little bit about what you do know how to play, please? Knowing that will help me to help you the best concerning your song becoming a song that is set to music!

Thanks!

I can play beginer piano I used to play I played for about 4 months

Can you play harmonically, three-note chords in your left hand and at the same time play a melody with your right hand?

Yea

Thanks! What are the notes that are in a "C" chord, please?

Umm I don't no chords :S I'm not that's good any more accuaily I suck my teacher can play

If I asked you to play a C, E and G all at exactly the same time with your left hand, would you be able to do it?

Yea

Thanks! If I asked you to play the song, "Mary Had a Little Lamb" starting with the middle finger of your right hand, on the "E" above middle "C" and without using any music, would you be able to play that song?

C, E and G are the notes that the "C" chord, is composed of by the way, just so you know. That is one of the chords that we could use in your song.

Um probably not
But when I learn sonething I can play it for life I'm a fast learner

I can play the c chord than do you have most of the music for it ?

I believe you when you say that you are a fast learner!

Do you know the song "Mary Had a Little Lamb?" I'm just trying to figure out how well you can play so that you will be able to play your song, after we finalize what the writing of the words to it is going to be.

Yea I no the song but not very well I neva gew up with child's songs I gew up with hard core songs

B bflat b bflat b f a g e

I can play that

If you mean the music for your song that might be written out, no, not on paper. But, the sound of the music for it comes to me immediately when I see the words that can be put to music. It can be put to actual, printed music later. Writing a song is a process that can sometimes take quite a bit of time.

Your song will take at least a few more, different chords in order for it to sound the best. If you can play the "C" chord, then that's a good start!

What I'm trying to get to here, in the immediate future, is for you to be able to play, at least a little bit of your song using that Virtual Keyboard that I showed to you.

Yea
Like I'm going to start learning piano soon at school

If you at least know the song a little bit, I would like for you to open up another browser in addition to this one, if you would, please?

You can play "Mary Had a Little Lamb" right away! I will show you how to do that!

OK done

Please open up the following link in the other browser.

VIRTUAL KEYBOARD - PIANO

Done

All the notes that we are going to use for "Mary Had a Little Lamb" will be between the two C's on the keyboard.

Below, are the notes to "Mary Had a Little Lamb", first verse. Please play it and let me know how it goes.

E, D, C, D, E, E, E,
D, D, D, E, G, G,
E, D, C, D, E, E, E, E,
D, D, E, D, C

The words to those same notes are as follows:

Mary had a little lamb,
Little lamb, little lamb.
Mary had a little lamb,
It's fleece was white as snow.

Yea I done it that was easy
