Soft as Diamond

Soft as Diamond

by Michael Lefevre

This piece was supposed to be Heavy Metal, but it doesn't quite make it.

Note that if you choose not to have lyrics, the music misses the section with words. I thought the words sounded quite good when I wrote them, but now I think they sound a bit silly.

Section e was originally in a separate piece, but it was very similar so I put it in this piece instead.

Those of you without Music 3000s are missing a Yakbell part, which isn't terribly exciting. The 3000 version also uses larger instruments (bassguit4, snare4 and drum4). I made bassguit from bassguit4 but it doesn't sound anything like as good. If you don't have a Music 3000, you can hear what the 3000 version sounds like by typing:

"1234-4iabc"PLAY

(this only plays the bass and percussion parts).

Lyrics:

Soft as diamond,

Hard as silk,

Light as jet,

Dark as milk.

Quiet as thunder,

Loud as lasers,

Sharp as spheres,

Blunt as razors.
