Ideas/Choosing Song|

When trying to choose songs I firstly chose a song that I really enjoyed ‘House of the rising son’- Animals https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5A-4VGfx5lU

(Mathiss, 2008)

And then looked at the chord progression and then looked for 2 other songs to fit the same chord progression. When looking I found to different but effect and catchy songs to use so I ended up choosing:

Thrift Shop- Macklemore https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK8mJJJvaes

 
(Lewis, 2012)

Don’t upset the rhythm-Noisettes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SFT8k5chO8

(NoisettesVEVO, 2009)

House of the rising sun-Animals  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5A-4VGfx5lU  

The 3 worked really well together when quickly singing just 3 random parts of each song. Once I had the 3 songs I just had to work out how I wanted the backing track to go. I played around with the lyrics and wrote out how I wanted them to be sang, and then I planned on how I wanted the backing track to sound.
