mcfly_42

Fun Class

Part One

We all know wizard rock. Bands that are dedicated to Harry Potter and write songs about Harry potter. What I want you to do is write your OWN wizard rock song.

The song must have at least 2 verses and one chorus and it must be about the harry Potter books or a certain character, storyline, item...whatever, but you must do it from the books, no writing songs about fanfictions you've read.

This song must NOT be a copy of a wizard rock band.

Worth 50 points

Part Two

If you remember Battle of the Bands you'll remember you had to perform a song in RP style.

I want you to write an RP for you performing your song. You can have a band with you, instruments, costumes, audience, whatever. Be creative, it's what this class is about =]

worth 50 points

Maximum: 100 points

Cheer Up Harry

Chorus:
Cheer up Harry
Cheer up boy
No sense sulking
The past can’t be undone
You got a war to fight
So get up and go

It isn’t your fault their dead
It’s just how life is
Tragedies happen
People die
It’s no one’s fault
Except the one’s who killed them

Chorus:
Cheer up Harry
Cheer up boy
No sense sulking
The past can’t be undone
You got a war to fight
So get up and go

You got two best friends
To help you through
They’ll stand by you till the end
The Weasley’s, The Order,
They got your back
So,

Chorus:
Cheer up Harry
Cheer up boy
No sense sulking
The past can’t be undone
You got a war to fight
So get up and go

Come on Harry
You can make it
You can defeat Voldemort
You got your wand, your friends
You got love and support
You can kill him that’s for sure

Chorus:
Cheer up Harry
Cheer up boy
No sense sulking
The past can’t be undone
You got a war to fight
So get up and go

Part Two

”Now introducing Cat” an announcer shouted on stage, in front of the closed curtain
Cat watched as the curtain before her lingered open. The announcer exited the stage to the right, leaving Cat and the people behind her alone on the stage in front of the hundreds of people. The light shone her face as the people became transfixed on her.

She cleared her throat and spoke into her microphone,” This song is called Cheer Up Harry”

Cat motioned to the musicians behind her to begin playing. She gripped the microphone with both of her hands and began to sing,

"Cheer up Harry
Cheer up boy
No sense sulking
The past can’t be undone
You got a war to fight
So get up and go

It isn’t your fault their dead
It’s just how life is
Tragedies happen
People die
It’s no one’s fault
Except the one’s who killed them

Cheer up Harry
Cheer up boy
No sense sulking
The past can’t be undone
You got a war to fight
So get up and go

You got two best friends
To help you through
They’ll stand by you till the end
The Weasley’s, The Order,
They got your back
So,

Cheer up Harry
Cheer up boy
No sense sulking
The past can’t be undone
You got a war to fight
So get up and go

Come on Harry
You can make it
You can defeat Voldemort
You got your wand, your friends
You got love and support
You can kill him that’s for sure

Cheer up Harry
Cheer up boy
No sense sulking
The past can’t be undone
You got a war to fight
So get up and go”

The music ended and the crowed cheered. Cat's face heated up, blushing," Thanks, goodnight."

The curtains closed and she began talking about how it went with her musician friends.

TTTO: It A Small World After All

Low
A baby boy was raise with a scar
But little did he know his worries are not far
Voldemort,(strech) and his death eaters
Are far from being just cheaters

Harry Potter was raise with mugggles
And it seems that he needed to be smuggled
But with Hagrid on the case,
Hogwart would be his new base

High
HArry Potter have no fear
In the end it will be so dear
All the things will come so clear
And I am not talking as a Seer

Scary it is, after all
But please stand strong and tall
At the end you will be on the ball
Harry Potter you're our call

Low 2

And you should know when it shall be over
They'll be no more reason to run for cover
Voldemort and his crowd are no longer concern
Happiness shall be throne

Rigby Dumbledore

Part One
Harry's Theme (I Can Feel It Calling)

Living with the Dursley's
Getting paler everyday
Duduley's got double chins
But I was just wasting away
Locked away in a cubboard
Alone with spiders in the dark
I didn't know any better
I lacked that magical spark
And then the owls came flying
Dropping letters through the door
They were filled with the wonderous news
That had Uncle Vernon's jaw dropped to the floor

Chorus
There's a place where I fit in
I can feel it calling
When the day wears thin
I can feel it calling

The Dursleys whisked me away to an isolated place
But still Hagrid found me in the pouring rain
He told me I was magic, in Hogwarts I belonged
I thought it was a dream until I boarded the hidden train
Now I'm best friends with Ron and Hermione
And despite all the danger and all the fright
Hogwarts is my new home
Privet Drive a distant sight
Every summer to my aunt and uncle I return
But these muggle strangers mean nothing to me
Let them have their little Duddiekins
Hogwarts and my friends are my real family

Chrous
There's a place where I fit in
I can feel it calling
When the day wears thin
I can feel it calling

Part Two
"Now on stage, a band that needs no introduction, Rigby and Prior Incantum!!!!"
The crowd goes wild as Rigby steps out, the applause thunderous as she and her bandmates take their place in front of their instruments. Rigby smiles as she takes a seat at her piano and starts to play. She looks at the crowd and sees thousands of cells phones lit up and swaying with the rhythm. The rest of the band joins in, the entire stadium throbbing witht the beat. Rigby opens her mouth, her voice, soprano and slightly raspy, belts out the lyrics. The crowds sings along and during the choruses Rigby lets them sing alone, her heart swelling as she realizes all her dreams. The power flows from her to the crowd and back again to her, making the music better. Rigby and the band repeat the final chorus again and again, since the crowd can not get enough. Finally, her voice husky and strained, Rigby plays the last key. She and the band stand together at the front of the stage, throwing kisses and waves at their fans, getting love and adoration back. Rigby thinks to herself how Harry Potter brings together people from all walks of life, and how music about him and his world speaks to everyone. They exit the stage, despite the cries for encores. It's time to start writing new songs, Rigby was working on an Ode to Remus, and the band was ready to cut their first album.

Chorus:

Part two

Becca twirled her hair nervously. This was her first performance of her new song and she wasn't sure how many people would like it. She grabbed the microphone quickly as someone she didn't know finished her makeup and hair.
'Please give a warm welcome to the becca and Dumbledore's Band Army!" shouted the announcer. Cheers filled the air and becca smilied as the chramed platform lowered her onto the stage. "How's everyoen doing tonight?" she asked anxiously. She was greeted with a whole bunch of cheers. 'Well, I hope you like my new single!" she replied and then the lights changed to a mix of greens, blues and purples. The screen behind her showed time turners and the band started up the music.

Becca took one last deep breath and belted out the lyrics she had written, "Time turners
Smashing
Crashing
I hear them every where
Running
Faster
Or the death eaters will get us

Run run in the department of mysteries
Or the death eaters are going to get us
Trip and falter
Not gunna happen
Uh oh uh oh
Ginny sprained her ankle
Ron’s been cursed
Hermione looks dead
Neville’s nose looks broken
Oh no oh no
Trip and falter
The death eaters

Oh no oh no
Trip and falter
The death eaters

Becca walked around shaking hands with the audience who were screaming loudly. She smilied wildly when the song finished. 'Thanks for coming out tonight everyone!" she thanked and then headed off the stage, still smiling and waving.

Part One

Books, Save The Empty by The Timeturners
Sung to Erin McCarley’s ‘Love Save The Empty’
From the album “Impossible Schedule”

First year girls don’t know how to be sweet girls,
Bloodline doesn’t matter.
First year boys don’t know how to treat those girls,
They can’t stand the chatter.

I thought, that we could be all friends
Oh why did I believe that?
You teased, taunted and made me cry,
Pushed just enough to make me crack.

Again, correcting pronunciation.
Again, I break down inside.
Books save the empty.
Books save the empty, save me.

Cowered, under the bathroom sink,
Oh why did I let you get to me?
How could I let myself think
The best of friends we could be?

Again, correcting pronunciation
Again, I break down inside
Books save the empty
Books save the empty, save me.
Books save the empty
Books save the empty

A troll came inside
Which is why I’m hiding
You save my hide
Could this be what I’ve waited for?

Books save the empty
Books save the empty
Books save the empty
Books save the empty, you saved me
You save me

Part Two

"And now I have the utmost pleasure to introduce...The Timeturners!"

"That's us," said Elana, grinning at her bandmates. "Ready or not, here we come!"

She ran onstage to the mic, the rest of the band - Jenn on piano, Rai - yes, dear, you're in my band, love it - on lead guitar, Amby on bass, Cris on drums - following suit. They had to navigate their way to their spots through the instruments already onstage along with assortments of books and other school materials that dotted the stage. The applause was deafening, and Elana couldn't stop grinning even when she got to her post. She smoothed her skirt, loving her Hermione outfit even though it wasn't blue and bronze, and waved to the audience.

"Thank you, thank you, you really are too kind," she said, "but they hired us to perform, and it would help if you could quiet down for just a minute or two."

The excitable crowd got the hint and she was able to continue. "We're going to perform a song for you now from our new album, 'Impossible Schedule,'" - she had to wave down the cheers before going on - "entitled, 'Books, Save The Empty.'"

Elana turned to see stage right and gave Jenn a nod. She began to play, the light notes hard to hear over the roar of the crowd as the recognized the song. Elana took the mic and sang,

First year girls don’t know how to be sweet girls,
Bloodline doesn’t matter.
First year boys don’t know how to treat those girls,
They can’t stand the chatter.

During the instrumental break between the verses, she danced with the mic stand, wandered around the stage, high fived fans, you know, the usual, until it was time for her to sing again. She took the mic from the stand and sunk dramatically onto a large overturned cauldron center stage for the verse. She flipped absently through a nearby volume, dejectedly slamming it down onto her makeshift seat as she got to her feet.

I thought, that we could be all friends
Oh why did I believe that?
You teased, taunted and made me cry,
Pushed just enough to make me crack.

Again, correcting pronunciation.
Again, I break down inside.
Books save the empty.
Books save the empty, save me.

As she sang the chorus, Elana went to the piano where she took a book from a stack next to a leg. She hugged it to her chest before sinking to the ground and scooting under the piano for the beginning of the next verse. During the verse she moved around under it, crouched, shielded herself with the book, attempting to find the best possible hiding spot.

Cowered, under the bathroom sink,
Oh why did I let you get to me?
How could I let myself think
The best of friends we could be?

Finally leaving her den under the piano, Elana slid up onto the bench next to Jenn for the chorus, reaching down for more books to hold until they were falling out of her arms.

Again, correcting pronunciation
Again, I break down inside
Books save the empty
Books save the empty, save me.
Books save the empty
Books save the empty

During the last few lines of the chorus, Elana scooped up the rest of the books and scurried over to the drum-set. She barricaded herself in between the drums and stacks of books, singing while she made the fortress. During the verse she peeked above the books and moved about in her confined space, trying to hide.

A troll came inside
Which is why I’m hiding
You save my hide
Could this be what I’ve waited for?

Mid-verse, a lanky, redheaded teenage boy ran onstage. He frantically looked around before spotting Elana, then hurried over to pull her out of her hiding place. During the last chorus of the song, they danced around the stage with Rai and Amby, ending by the piano. (Think High School Musical here from 1:20 on with better singing XD)

Books save the empty
Books save the empty
Books save the empty
Books save the empty, you saved me
You save me

The music ended and the cheers erupted. Laughing from her seat on the piano, Elana shouted into the mic in order to be heard over the noise. "On behalf of the Timeturners, I want to give a big thank you to Mr. Ronald Weasley - " she gave him a big hug " - for agreeing to work with us on this tour and surprise you all! Thank you for coming, we'll see you at Beauxbatons!"

Part One -

You know now what I'm to become
You know now why this cannot go on
It pains me to say
More than it pains you
This is why it's the end

Chorus
I wish I knew
I wish I could somehow tell
My heart, no more than a battleground
Swaying in the cherry-red field

You are so close
So far
So much
But nothing I need
You and I will
runaway together
You are my heart's secret keep
Wishes casted above the blood stained sky
Melting to nothing

And the Order is gone
The great headmaster falls
And hope is rarely now seen
But with the Chosen One's life
A new strife is taken
No more shall we fail to see

Chorus
I wish I knew
I wish I could somehow tell
My heart, no more than a battleground
Swaying in the cherry-red field

Chorus
I wish I knew
I wish I could somehow tell
My heart, no more than a battleground
My heart
My heart....
Swaying in the cherry-red field

Part Two -

Rose plugged her bass guitar into the amps, then wiped the sweat off her brow. She never liked opening a performance, but it had to be done. At least the crowds applause afterwards made it all worth while.

She took in a deep breath as someone announced her band to come on out and show all of Hogwarts what they had composed. The curtains drew open with the flick of a wand, and the students burst into 'global warming'. She blushed and turned her attention to the rest of the band, trying not to faint.
The singer nodded and at the count of three they started playing The sweet-filled melody took everyone by surprise, but they seemed interested none the less.

Rose swallowed hard, her fingers strumming against the blood-red guitar, and prepared for the chorus which all the band sang.

“I wish I knew
I wish I could somehow tell
My heart, no more than a battleground
Swaying in the cherry-red field”

Before she knew it, the second chorus had come up, and she chimed in with the rest once again. Then, the third, which drew out longer than the others and the music came to an abrupt halt. Rose chewed on her lip, hoping the audience liked their new single and the five members bowed.

After a moment, the students and teachers hooted and whistled, applauding like mad over their song. Rose smiled in relief and waved goodnight as the band went off the stage.
