"Alright, let's see what you guys came up with!" Toru said with excitement to which Jiro twirled an jack around her finger.
"I do want to see what you guys made."
"This is gonna be so manly to listen to!" Kirishima said excitedly.
Blind
The song began with taps of the cymbals by Shoji in a pattern. Before a guitar joined in short bursts. It repeated for a few seconds before the bass came in a little tune before going back to just the guitar and drums.
"OK. This is interesting." Jiro perked up a bit. She liked the tension building up.
"Quite the sound. Shoji is the drummer and Ashido plays the bass, but which guitar is which?" Momo asked to which Shoto answered. "The one you're hearing now is Hitoshi. Mine comes in soon."
(So for preference, Hitoshi is Munky and Shoto is Head.)
Just then, Shoto's guitar came in along with a bass tap from Shoji.
"Oh that's a nice addition." Jiro said impressed.
It went like that for a couple more seconds before Shoto played more prominently. Building up the song even more before finally Izuku shouted.
"ARE YOU READYYYYY!!!"
Before the song exploded into a badass riff. It stopped for a second before beginning again.
"WOAH!" That was the collective sound a majority of the students. The band members themselves were nodding their heads. They were quite proud of what they were making.
"Wow this is amazing!" Kaminari said as he began nodding his head as well.
Jiro had nothing to say, she was just enthralled by the music as she was nodding as well. Her ear jacks dangling from the movement.
The riff then slowed down as Midoriya began to sing with Shoto slightly whimpering the same lyrics.
Midoriya and Shoto: This place inside my mind, a place I like to hide...
Midoriya: You don't know the chances. What if I should die?!
"Wow... That's Deku singing? He sounds... In pain." Ochaco said but couldn't help but enjoy the way he sang.
Midoriya and Shoto: A place inside my brain, another kind of pain...
Midoriya: You don't know the chances. I'm so Blind! Blind... Blind...
"So what is Midoriya singing about?" Tsu asked to which Mina answered.
"Well Midoriya said it like this, his head has always been foggy and things from his childhood was stuck in his head like a a burning pain. It's come to the point where it feels like he's blind. Hence why he's Blind."
Everyone looked at Mina. They didn't expect that kind of answer from her. She's was always a bit of an airhead and had one of the lowest grades in class. But here she was. A bassist for a band and improving.
Midoriya and Shoto: Another place I find, to escape the pain inside...
Midoriya: You don't know the chances. What if I should die?!
Midoriya and Shoto: A place inside my brain, another kind of pain...
Midoriya: You don't know the chances. I'm so Blind! Blind... Blind...
The riff slowed down slightly before going back to the riff as Midoriya sang out.
Midoriya: Deeper and deeper and deeper as I dream to live a life that seems to be... A lost reality, that can never find a way to reach my inner... self-esteem is low. How deep can I go in the ground that I lay? If I don't find a way to see through the gray that clouds my mind. This time I look to see what's between the lines!
"So he's trying to find a way to be more confident? He certainly needs more confidence in himself." Sato said.
"He's come a long way though since the beginning of the year. So give him a bit more credit than that." Iida defended Midoriya.
The song slowed down as the cymbals from the beginning came back and Shoto played a more drawn out version of the riff from the beginning. Before Midoriya repeated.
Midoriya: I can't see, I can't see, I'm going blind...[4x]
After the fourth time, the instruments joined in a little louder as Midoryia sang it out.
Midoryia: I can't see, I can't see, I'm going Blind... [9x]
The riff came back which made many of the audience members begin nodding their heads as they enjoyed the riff.
Midoriya: I'm Blind... I'm Blind... I'm Blind... I'M BLIND!!
The song stopped before starting again with the bass doing a little tune before the guitarists started to make scratching noises like a DJ. Shoji drummed in and it all cultivated into a little funky riff that slowly faded out, ending the song.
Jiro was floored. She leaned against the couch and was speechless.
"Wow... So this is what you guys have been working since the Sports Festival!? This is amazing! Why haven't you guys sold this or released a single?" Kirishima asked.
Shoji rubbed the back of his head "Well truthfully, we thought about it, but haven't talked about it because of everything else. We've been recording and writing on the weekends. Besides we're doing this for Midoriya as you remember."
Toru bounced excitedly and exclaimed "You guys are amazingly talented! Midoriya has a unique voice and you all have an awesome handle of your instruments!"
Jiro looked at the members "This... This kind of music is really different. We need to listen to the others."
Shoto nodded "Then let's continue."
