Warriors Cats...The Musical?

[Hawkpaw]

Ooh! Could I play Moonkit?

I just want to say though, we should probably have probably 70% of the characters be female. Considering all of us but Regal are female, it would probably be much easier.

[Willowfoot]

So I saw the lyrics and I was like :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD and I went to go to the keyboard and it was out of batteries and I was like FFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU so I went to my brother and I was like SUP BRO WE GOT ANY BATTERIES and he was like NO and I was like

DESPAIR

So I will find some way to improvise until I can get batteries to this instrument.

EDIT
When you mentioned the greencough ballad I got inspired!
So I pretty much wrote a song!
I'll find a way to record it as soon as I can. For now here's the lyrics.
As it turns out, lyrics are not my strong point! :F The music is amazing though, I can't wait to record it.
(Sleety feel free to report any plot errors or any names I can plug in)


WILLOWPAW
Oh StarClan
What have we done
To make you do this

WARRIOR1
Oh StarClan
You've all died
You don't feel this pain

WARRIOR2
Oh StarClan
I'm sick and dying
I miss you but I don't want to see you

GALAXYFUR
Oh StarClan
I've done all I can do
I gave my life to you
And you're taking it away

WILLOWPAW
StarClan, why--?

WILLOWPAW AND GALAXYFUR
Do you hate us so much
That you would kill us all

GALAXYFUR
You've gone too far

QUEEN
My kit is sick

WARRIOR
My son is dying

APPRENTICE
My mentor's gone

SUNPAW
Moonpaw's coughing

CLAN
Help us Galaxyfur
We don't want to die
This is why you're Medicine Cat

WILLOW
There aren't enough of us
To keep them alive

GALAXYFUR AND WILLOWPAW
Oh StarClan
What did we do to you
What StarClan would allow
This terror to ensue

Oh StarClan
Our hope is lost
We turn to you that we may renew
Or all our faith exhausts

Oh StarClan

CLAN
Oh StarClan

GALAXYFUR
Oh StarClan

WILLOWPAW
Oh StarClan

I love it

I don't really have names for any 'extra' cats yet but We've got Shatteredheart, Hawkstar and Flowerdragon so far.

Also, as far as the cast, you guys are not the only ones I'm going to have in it. Once the script and songs are finished, I will be putting a Casting Call up on my VAing site. i was giving y'all first choice of characters and positions, but it will not be voiced my MC alone.

[Willowfoot]

I am this close to being able to record!

-gives the planck length-

(science joke)

My parents are at rehearsal so I have commissioned them to get me some batteries!

I am excited!

[Sleetfoot]

yay! Can't wait!

I'm going to update the first post as I get more stuff as far as script. well i dunno how well the script will transfer since it's being down in Celtx but I'll post the songs at least.

Opening song is complete and posted in first.

[Hawkpaw]

I'm seriously so exited for this.

[Willowfoot]

Ok I still don't have batteries, but I recorded a crappy version with Advanced Mario Sequencer (a downloadable instrument)

I can't record the vocals tonight because my voice sounds bad today! I will do one with vocals tomorrow, but for now here is an instrumental!
(It's very repetitive, especially at the beginning, sorry!)

So yes there is the first thing I ever composed ever!
While I enjoyed making it, I encourage other people to do this, because I think a full length musical is a little intimidating for one severely inexperienced person to do! If lots of severely inexperienced people work together, I think it will be much better!

[Sleetfoot]

I LOVE IT! Can't wait to here it with vocals cuz I think the singing i was doing in my head was very wrong XD

[Hawkpaw]

I love it! I can't wait to hear how you sing it! I was singing through the song while it was playing, but chances are I was singing it incorrectly. XD

[Hawkpaw]

May I make a lyrical suggestion? I would suggest adding one more "Oh Starclan" at the end where Galaxyfur and Willowpaw both sing and have a harmony. I was thinking Galaxyfur and Willowpaw start a third apart on the "Oh", Galaxy on the lower note, Willow on the higher, then both drop down two steps for "star," then on "clan," Galaxyfur holds the same note as before and Willow goes up one step so that they are at harmonic fourths. It would be very pleasing to the ear.

[Willowfoot]

Ooh, that's a good good idea Hawky! I was having some issues with the timing on the end anyway.

(Also there are several looping errors in the recording I posted, they will be fixed when I record the vocals.)

[Hawkpaw]

Awesome! And I have a pretty awesome idea for the opening song's tune too!

[Willowfoot]

So I couldn't sleep because I was like "I REALLY WANT TO RECORD THEM VOCALS."

So I stayed up and I got to pretty much the first place where there was harmony.

Did you guys know that if you record harmony as 2 separate clips, IT WILL NEVER SYNC UP NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO?

So I got my bro to help me... which he did agree to do... but we ended up recording a song about Sarah Palin.

I'm sorry.

The Prayer will be recorded though! I promise!

[Sleetfoot]

Haha! Wow XD *Shakes her head* just...wow XD

I had something in my head for the opener while I was righting it, but I honestly can't write fro crap...so what I'll end up doing is...naw I don't even think I can do that :/

Maybe record it acapella theeeeen y'all can write the music part XD

[Hawkpaw]

Ummmmmm..... That's just...... Ummmmmmm.................... It's hilarious when you say, "You betcha!" you sounded just like her! But still.... Ummmmmmmm............
