MA TANTE CHANTE
The place for PetraH's musical quest. It's all about music and just for fun.
Taken by the North
Taken by the North is a song that I have written and performed for the Singeo songwriting challenge april 2025. The inspiration of this song is Poppa, the Viking queen.
As Time Goes By
As Time Goes By by Dooley Wilson (1942). This song became famous through the film Casablanca starring Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. As Time Goes By was Joe’s choice for the Weekly Song Challenge on Singeo.com. I’ve used the music track of Brian Ferry’s cover.
Time in a bottle
Time in a bottle by Jim Groce (1972). This was my choice for the Weekly Song Challenge this week. Time in a Bottle is an interesting song because the verses are in a minor key, while the chorus shifts to major (D). Writing a harmony for this song took me some time, but once again, it was a great learning experience. Hans and I decided to use selfies from over the years for the video clip, as the lyrics really resonate with us.
Cette semaine, j’ai choisi une chanson qui figure sur ma liste de souhaits depuis un moment : Time in a Bottle de Jim Croce (de 1972).
Time in a Bottle est une chanson intéressante, car les couplets sont en mineur tandis que le refrain passe en majeur. Il m’a fallu pas mal de temps pour écrire une harmonie (2ème voix) pour cette chanson, mais j’en ai encore beaucoup appris. Nous avons choisi d’utiliser des selfies pris au fil des années pour le clip, car les paroles nous correspondent vraiment.
Honesty
Honesty by Billy Joel was Derek’s song choice for the Weekly Song Challenge.I had a lot of fun to play with the layered voices and as always Hans enjoyed playing around with images generated by the AI.
Honesty de Billy Joel était le choix de chanson de Derek pour le Weekly Song Challenge (défi musical hebdomadaire). J’ai pris beaucoup de plaisir à jouer avec les voix superposées, et comme toujours, Hans s’est amusé à manipuler les images générées par l’IA.
