I had a project that I had to read a book, and choose one of the many ways to do a project on it. I grabbed at the last minute Catcher In the Rye(since I waited too long to get the book I wanted, and someone else took it). One of the choices was to pick 4 songs that a character in the book would relate to or would listen too. For the main character in the book, and choose BEF, Bartender, God (by john lennon), and I decided to write a tune Weight of Praying . The song name came from two lines I put in for the chorus, it goes like this
Lay me down
Leave me praying, the
Weight of the world
Keeps the pain in
I was thinking of those two version of early DDTW, and it fit very well with the song and the chracter.
Well, I was going to play two of the songs to the class. So I performed Bartender, and people didn't seem to feel it. Then I was going to do Weight of Praying, and everyone left, since right after I started, the lunch bell rang. They all left in just a few seconds, not caring. Bummed me out.
So, Sarah, now I envy you for that project, and your hair!
anyways, I want to hear it, record it damn it, lol.
Yes, I am in a box
