Here is my contribution to the October 2022 Basschat Composition Challenge, inspired by a picture chosen by one of the previous winners: Upside Downer.
The tiny tots have not yet learned (been told...) about the Law of Physics and the Real World. Nothing, to them, is impossible, or even odd...
Another MDrummer track for the percussion, the instruments are an Asper synth pad and Augmented Strings. Voices are all synthetic, using EmVoice and on-line Text To Speech samples, Little treatment, other than a bit of compression/EQ on the voices (and a dab of delay on one...), and my standard Reaper NY Glue on the Master tracks, as usual. The whole thing is in 9/8, just for fun.
Thanks for listening, if you already have; if you're about to, enjoy.
Here's the spoken text...
As long as they believe.
I'll be in the airs.
Keeping just above
Their innocent stares.
As long as they believe.
As long as they believe.
Newton's laws have ended.
Hovering above.
Gravity suspended.
As long as they believe.
They believe I can fly.
They believe I can touch the sky.
They believe I can soar.
They believe in me and so much more.
As long as they believe.
I'll be overhead.
Floating here above
The little ones in bed.
As long as they believe.
As long as they believe.
Up here I shall remain
As I levitate above.
Although it seems insane.
As long as they believe.
They believe I can fly.
They believe I can touch the sky.
They believe I can soar.
They believe in me and so much more.
As long as they believe
As long as they believe.
As long as they believe.
As long as they believe. .
