Listen to the HYMN I wrote...

[DoorKnobHandle]

...and tell me what you think about it.

The back-story: I wrote this hymn/song-hybrid as a birthday present for a friend of mine who turned nineteen a few days ago. He's a member in a rowing-club from our school and he's completely crazy about the sport and this club. One night he had a little gathering at his house, I was pretty drunk and told him and everybody else, I'd write and produce a hymn for his club. Next day nobody remembered except me and when his birthday came, I got the idea to make it a gift.

Anyways, it's not meant to be a hymn in any kind of classical sense, but rather like a catchy tune (similar to the hymns for the handball/soccer world cups etc.) - I was heavily inspired by a german band when writing the hook-melody for it, but I think I've changed enough notes in order for it to be legal - and even if I haven't, I don't want to sell it or anything (around 40% of the people who listened to the piece at his birthday-party noticed the reference), just so you know.

I wrote, performed, recorded and mastered it all by myself - HERE is the link!

Yo, The link won't work.
When you say Hymn, I take it you don't mean "Cross over the road my friend" and "morning has broken" type hymns?

[DoorKnobHandle]

The link doesn't work? Sure works for me and a few other people elsewhere.

I don't know neither "Cross over the road my friend" nor "Morning has broken", but - as I meant to say with "hymn/song-hybrid" - it's not a hymn in the classical sense at all, just a motivating theme song or something.

Me like it! it sounds very professional... great guitar playing as well!

Putfile was down yesterday, but they have finished their maintenance work.

I've instantly recognized the original song and would rather consider this a remix, but good work nonetheless!

[DoorKnobHandle]

Thanks.

Well, technically it isn't a remix, since I recorded all the tracks including drums and guitars on my own (taking only the notes for the chorus from a reference and modifying them slightly), but it should probably be called a "cover". ^^

Cool theme Jan, sounds like something that would fit a TV show perfectly. Its Scrubb like, its Friends like, it's all that kinda show like - or as you say, sports themey! Good job

[DoorKnobHandle]

Hehe, thanks for your comments, guys, and keep 'em coming if you can!

[bradless]

[DoorKnobHandle]

Sure; as long as you credit me.
