Original Music
 
Okay, I'm not a good artist, and I can't play the guitar and come up with funny songs off the top of my head like CT, but I can right music. I thought I'd start this thread so that anyone else who rights music of any kind can post some of their own stuff.
Here's a midi file of an arrangement of "Annabel Lee" that I'm working on. Hope you enjoy!!!

Upper lines beneath bars : timing of notes, i.e. e=eighth note, s=sixteenth note, etc.

[verse]
It all started like the dream
Big life, the money, the women, the fame [* Begin music]
Livin' high on my carpet ride
Feelin' high on my magic ride
And then it all comes down,[*] I realize [* = falling note, like a bass-heavy airplane]
My life, it's all been a struggle and for what?
I try and I try, but nothing comes to me,
Just the visions of granduer and fame,
The high times that elude me
For so long I've tried,
Yet for so long I've failed
And then I realize...
There's only one way to go from here... [* hold out last note of bass riff (10) and stop guitar; turn guitar effect off, too]
And then it all comes down...
It all comes down

I'm not your role model
Life's hard truth to swallow
Nobody's role model
Forgotten 'til tomorrow

[verse]
The years, the decades of hard work,
And yet they never paid off like I thought they would
And then I see I can relate to the story
Of the man that worked too hard for nothin'
Like the salesman, I try and I try,
But in the end I see it's all an illusion
They lure you in with empty promises,
Ironclad deals and their spoken word
And now I see there's only one way out an' it's down...
Down that shallow staircase of the ladder I climbed...

[chorus]
I'm not your role model
Life's hard truth to swallow
Nobody's role model
Forgotten 'til tomorrow

[effects solo]

[verse]
Into the veins, I must resist,
But the urge, the feeling of the candy's too much
Straight to the brain, they'll never find me 'til mornin',
The Forgotten Artist
When daylight breaks they'll find me sleeping still,
Lying quiet in my bed of roses,
Deep in my sleep with Moses...

[chorus] x3
I'm not your role model
Life's hard truth to swallow
Nobody's role model
Forgotten 'til tomorrow

Lyrics:
The one you shunned, who left out into the cold
To embrace the darkness and escape your hold

You thought you had me (anger consuming)
You're just a fool, my hatred is dooming

So laugh while you can, while you think it's still safe
You'll never see it coming, that blow to  the  face

Gasp! @ Zephir


All of my music stuff: HEY, uh, IT WORKS NOW! ^^`
My recommendations: Reflected (for Chill/DnB lovers), Any Love (For those who love French Techno/Dance/House; Daft Punk for example), and The Chocobo Song (Chill Bill Remix) (Well duh.)

I wish I knew how to read guitar tabs. I may have to get CT to play these things for me so I can actually hear them. Unless someone knows a program that will convert Tabs to sheet music.

Egads, not another eJay clone!
Most of the best work is best done from scratch. ;)

I use MadTracker, a tracker. It's one of those programs that requires a bit more work, but it's well worth it.
