Liner Notes

#acousticonetake #themesong
My screen name HM Street Team came from a song, but that song is too long and perhaps has too much narrative to serve as a theme song. The idea of the song title and screen name is about the ironic contrast in working for fame, so here you go.

Lyrics

Out on the street
Representin’
Up on your feet
Representin’
Fame is not given
It’s earned
Through blood sweat and tears
It might take years

The lyrics and song are short and sweet but do the job of showcasing what your username sounds like!

I am with tcelliot and iveg on this one!

I like the short concise write that tells us a little bit of the story and leaves me wanting to know more. A perfect sound bite well delivered!

Just enough story and just the right length to be a TV show theme, I'd say.

Guy and guitar, standing on the street corner. Sun is beating down. Falling leaves. Snow. People walking by. But he's still there, representing.

i really feel the 99% perspiration in the "out on your feet representin'" part ... and the glory in the "fame is not given, it's earned" part!!!

I like the rhythm of the repeated lines "Out on the street Representin'" which works pretty darn well as a non-traditional hook. That back and forth chord pattern is effective to. I actually extended mine a little and still came in with a short song. Now I"m thinking I shouldn't have. I also think it's cool that neither of us have an "upbeat" theme song.
