Well right now it is 12:55 and i'm feeling sick right now but, i cant go to bed yet because an idea just daunted on me. I grabbed my Acoustic Martin Guitar and just started playing what i felt and it seems that i have a solid idea for the song already. I started to play the E minor and C major chords in a 3/4 time. Each chord plays for a bar. Then I started to get ideas for words. So far i have the first verse of the song. I'm pretty happy because it came to me in a moment of inspiration which are the moments that I like the most. I really have to thank Veronica Garces, a good friend who actually got me to play my guitar while talking about music then of course as always the best ideas come at moments that you don't expect them to. At the same time I also have the title for the song which is also the title of the blog which is "Never Ending Road." The name wasn't really thought out but it was one of those moments that "just happens." As I was playing the topics ran through my head and immediately the title "Never Ending Road" popped in to my head. I think that it's perfect because when you think about these social issues in peoples lives many people can compare these circumstances to a never ending road. The never ending road symbolizes the struggle, the consistency of the pain and hurt, and basically the path that we walk.
Before all of this I know that I originally wanted to start with piano but as far as ideas and inspiration went, it took me on a different path where i know it will come out great. The idea right now is to start with the acoustic guitar to set the mood for the song and get into the life of the words that will be sung. I still want to add the strings. This is where Ender will come in to play the keys. And definitely for it to come to a bang in the chorus. Ender and I will be coming together to formulate these ideas and put together this song into a final masterpiece that I hope it will be. We'll keep you updated

Today is the 19th of November. I'm here at school right now in the computer lab in thinking mode about the process of going about the making of the music for the music video. As i said earlier i have a basic idea for the intro and verse but i need to lay down arrangements for the guitars and vocals and what not. More importantly i need to get working on the lyrics for the song. What I and Ender know for certain is that the song is going to talk about drugs, child abuse and rape. We're going to get together to work on the lyrics and i was thinking to make the song in the format of a story where all these situation come together into one story. What we would like to stress is the severity of these issues in not only the nation we live in but also the world we live in and the importance for change. These are the ideas so far. You will definitely be updated on any other progress. If anyone has any suggestion that would help out please let us know. Thanks. Talk to you soon!

I came up with an idea for a song. Right now it's in the works. The intro will be with the piano playing a sad but strong intro with minor chords. Then, strings will come in to build on the piano with crescendo. I'm hoping to have song set up so that the lead voice will come in during the piano and strings then dropping electric guitars and drums in the chorus making a vamp from a classical sounding song into rock. I would like to create a fusion within genres of the classical music genre and rock to make it sound a bit different and it will lead on from there.
