In need of some sad sounding music... Collab?

[AerieFlew]

Well I'm working on some lyrics inspired by Pinkie Pie when she gets depressed and thinks all her friends hate her and don't like her parties anymore but I want the music for this song to be a bit more polished then my usual acoustic stuff, can't stand how repetitive I am all the time.
I like to build my lyrics around other ponies' music, where as I do the lyrics first for my own stuff and add music later.
So I guess what I'm saying is I'd love somepony that could make me a sad sounding track that is Pinkie Pie like.
If anyone is up for it, I'd love to chat. Thanks so much.

Here are the lyrics so far (changeable to fit the music and not complete by any means):
My friends don't like me anymore...

My life's been spent partying,
Cause my friends seemed so happy.
All I want is to make them smile
When they're around me!
Somehow all that has changed
They just won't come around
I've tried my best to party hard
But they left me here to drown

Every morning I train myself
To make my friends stay laughing
Every day I brace myself
For when they don't stop clapping
But now it's over I don't know why
They must just not like me
I haven't a friend in the world
To make my party happy...

I'll take a shot at it... All I can make right now is dark/sad stuff, so I might as well put it to good use and get someone who knows what they're doing on vocals.

I'll let you know when I have a demo together.

Alright, here it is. I consider it an exceedingly rough demo, considering that I literally just threw it together after my earlier post. But this is just to gauge if you actually think you could do anything with it, and if you could, what I'd need to do on my end to fix it up, make it more interesting, lengthen the vocal sections, etc.

[AerieFlew]

Thank you so much for that.
Honestly it sounds awesome but it sounds more angry than sad and I have no idea how I would sing to it.
I'm a girl... And I wanted it to be kinda long vocals and not too angry.
But thank you so much. If you wanna try with the sad thing in mind I bet it would be awesome

Alright, slowed it down, added piano, mixed down the guitar, and changed the key. Listening to it myself, I think it sounds a bit more on the sad side, but of course this is for you, so I'll let you be the judge of that.

[AerieFlew]

Hmmmnnnn for sure sounding more like what I was thinking... If I could, would you mind if I suggested putting strings in this piece?

[colortwelve]

Not at all, I'll get on that.

Here you are, it now has strings. And no bass track, because I realized listening on my bigger system that it was extremely muddy. But yeah, I hope it's better now.

[AerieFlew]

You have so totally done it. Great job, thanks so much.
I'll probably have the lyrics recorded by tomorrow, maybe even sometime tonight if my voice will cooperate.
Do you know how to mix lyrics with the track or should I do it? I'm not that great but I also know what I want soooo... Idk xD
Thanks so much though

[colortwelve]

I can handle mixing it, as long as you can give me a track that's synced as well as it can be (though I can tweak the syncing just a bit if I need to).

And thank you for giving me the opportunity to produce for someone.

Oh, and would you mind if I uploaded the finished version to my Youtube channel?

[AerieFlew]

No need for thanks I'm super greatful to get your help.

Go for it, not a problem at all.

It'll be done soon, I just keep getting sick and it's putting me behind on a bunch of things.

Order of things to record:
Shine fr Nix and Facade
Dash Song for Random Pony
This
Clannad Song Probably... For nix.

AerieFlew, you've seen Clannad? I like you more now.

[AerieFlew]
