Friends

Frog and Toad are friends
Frog and Toad are friends

Frog makes some cookies and he shares them with Toad
Toad eats the cookies and he likes them

Frog and Toad are friends (x4)

Friends
Friends
Friends, not enemies

Toad plays the banjo and Frog, he dance
Dance, Frog, dance
Dance, Frog, dance

Frog and Toad are friends (x4)

Friends
Friends
Friends, not enemies

Analysis:

I loved the books when I was a wee lad. That's about as complex as this gets.

Cheers!

Thoughts on Frog and Toad

Frog and Toad

I started writing this one in early 2007. It is one of two pieces that I wrote while experimenting with the newest version of Cubase (4, I think). I'd just upgraded and wanted to see how the new plugin synths sounded. I played it for a few friends and then set it aside and forgot about it.

In December of 2012 I found it again and decided to see what would happen if I put words to it. This is the result: first take, improvised words, at 6am. That's my pre-coffee, sleepy gravel voice. I made up the words on the spot though I ended up having to go back and fix up the second verse because I flubbed the lyrics the first time out.

Here's a link to the youtube of it: http://youtu.be/N9U7Jyzjg_o

My friend Greg Walter of (http://www.2tallstudio.com) did the animation in a fit of creative glory. I love it!

All the instruments and voices are by me with the notable exception of the Stunt Guitar Solo by Cleetus Hartwood.
