That Was Honestly A M A Z I N G

That was honestly A M A Z I N G

I started trying to write 14 songs in  28  18 days today

Carry it slowly, so you don’t drop it Watch your footing on the floor like it matters that you make it The soundsystem is losing its reception, and it’s cutting out again Trying to lure your attention

Terrified dreams you’ve already forgotten There’s one every morning of late These days are mostly about the distraction of what you can put on your plate

So don’t drop it So don’t drop it

Carry it so it doesn’t dig into your shoulders Stand as straight as you’re able to, without wiping out Miles stretch behind you but you’ve been stuck here for a while Can’t finish anything fast enough

It’s cool, you’ve got plans for the weekend The one that’s always several weeks away It’s cool, it’s good if you get up early tomorrow You’re holding it together and trying not to drop it So don’t drop it

Can’t set it down but keep moving your feet

Just a little correction for On My Own: as seen in the video, it’s “Everyone, everyflock, everypony” during the “chorus”.

Del submitted:

Hey, I noticed you’ve made some lyrics transcripts of The Standard Model, I’d like to share what I’ve made way back in 2012. Here are On My Own lyrics http://pastebin.com/u19TxGs2 and A Beautiful Heart http://pastebin.com/hMVcXSp6 I’ve taken a different approach to them, but feel free to modify it to your liking. Have fun!

Oh wow, thanks! I admit the idea of trying to transcribe some of the more heavily spliced SGaP tracks has daunted me, but it’s great to see you took up the challenge!

Just for posterity, I’ve copied these into some google docs, which I’ll provide links to here: Lyrics: On My Own Lyrics: A Beautiful Heart

I’m not sure if this is the case, but I’m afraid serchumfuggler may have confused quarter tones (which are notes located between 2 semitones, thus not playable on a standard piano) with quarter notes, which refers to the duration of the notes within a given meter signature. As most (if not all) of Sgap’s songs use a standard 4/4 signature, it’s not that surprising to find quarter notes used in them. Meanwhile, quarter tones are a much more interesting thing to notice as they are much morre rarely used in music.

serchumfuggler submitted:

SGaP does indeed use quarter tones very extensively; you can hear them in basically every single one of his songs. two examples would be in the beginning of Dashy / Hearth’s Warming Eve, or halfway through Night Glider, at 1:20-ish. now that i’m listening closely for them, i find that they’re in, quite literally, nearly every single song of his at one point or another.

in general, SGaP just loves going ‘off the beat’, away from his 4:4 time signature (a 1-2-3-4 beat), to create his songs. if you listen very closely to nearly any of his songs, and count in a 1-2-3-4 rhythm, you’ll notice that, although almost nothing seems to match up to the beat, on every 4th beat, a chord ends and another begins, or the percussion plays, or something else changes.

even in places where his songs cut out briefly, or seem to change entirely, the beat usually holds true. for example, at the beginning E40, count a beat every single time the guitar is strummed. when the song drastically changes at around 0:40, you’ll find that the beat still holds true, and that notes are indeed played on them, and that when the song ‘resumes,’ it will do so after a 4th note in this 1-2-3-4 beat.

although, he isn’t necessarily held back by the 1-2-3-4 beat, either, as i’ve noticed. later in E40, where he sings 'where has older sister gone?’ you’ll find that it no longer holds up. it’s still there, but it’s gone slightly faster, and it’s much harder to find, because of the lack of hints; the only clue is when one 'burst’ of strumming ends, that’s the fourth note in the beat.

i could give more examples if needed, but that’s the gist of it, and it’s part of what makes his songs so wonderful and lively to listen to.

Many thanks for this thorough explanation! Especially with such detailed examples. This has really helped me to understand his music a little better, including why it seems so unique, and I think it’s a help to plenty of others, too
