Title: Need advice for a project...
Post by: TheMarti on May 13, 2010, 02:52:22 PM
Lol, I graduated last Friday, and I'm already workin on a project? I'm a dork.

Anyway, I'm making a slide show to share with everyone of pictures of my ceremony and after. The problem isn't that... honestly, the slide show is finished already. lol. I am having a really hard time figuring out what song I want to put the slide show to. I would like something fun and high energy, but at least somewhat related (I was going to do "Peachy" by FF5 but that doesn't fit at all). Does anyone have any suggestions? I would prefer to stay in the Christian genre of music, but I would consider outside of it if its appropriate and I like it.

Thanks guys!
Marti

If you're ok with screaming, try Becoming the Archetype/Demon Hunter/Showbread.  Otherwise, Five Iron Frenzy.  And possibly VeggieRock
Outside the Christian genre, look up "Immediate Music".  I've used them in several of my videos, they make the epic music you hear behind music trailers.

"We live" by Superchick is fun and high energy and has a good message :) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_rzgyqWW0E)

Showstopper by Toby Mac fits the bill. 
Either that or Life is Good by Stellar Kart.

Outsource to China.  It works for Cactus, it'll work for you.

I tried to convince my teacher that we should use the live version of One Girl Army for our song.  Almost convinced him.

It starts with a brassy version of The Final Countdown! How couldn't that work?

He was cool with it until the opening scream.  Then he burst out laughing, and said "I love it!  We'd never be able to do it!"
