MAGICAL MUSIC

Note: In this chapter there will be lyrics to some songs that the band is singing. When someone is singing I will put there name before the lyrics so you know who is singing, like you would a script. I know that a lot of people hate this style of writing, I personally despise it, but it is too hard to write who is singing the song. Thanks to all my reviewers I love the support.

The band sat in the back room of the Great Hall waiting for one of the Professors to come and tell them when the dance was going to commence.

The plan was that they would play a song as the people came in then a few throughout dinner, till closer to the end of dinner when they would eat. After dinner Dumbledore was going to introduce them and then they would just play whatever they wanted.

After they had tested their instruments tuning they had sat down to plan what songs to do first and some of the ones later but after that they had been told that the students would be able to make requests of them for songs to play.

McGonagall came in not long after they had finished talking and told them the doors were about to open. They walked onto the stage and did a final check of the instruments before the door opened and Dumbledore nodded at them and they started to play. Harry was on the keyboard, Jack was on Guitar, Dani on Bass Guitar, Jane on the drums and Lara singing.

Lara: Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you go on Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're gone Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

When the first song had finished most of the students had entered the room and were sitting at the round tables that had been set up in the hall so that people of any house could sit together.

It took another few minutes for the rest of the school to be seated and they just played some background music in that time and stopped altogether when the headmaster stood up to address the school.

"Welcome everyone to this years Halloween ball. I can see that everyone has come in some amazing costumes which will be judged later on for the best costume. But now we will have dinner, you will all notice that there are two pieces of parchment inform of each of you. One is the menu for tonight; just say what you want and it will appear on your plate. The other parchment is blank, this a charmed so that if there is a Muggle song you would like to have played you can write it down, it will appear on a parchment that the band have and if the band know the song they will play it for you. But now everyone enjoy your meal."

Dumbledore sat down again and the students all started talking amongst themselves. The Headmaster had found what Harry had suggested and his costume was very similar to the actor in the movie. He had come as Gandalf the White, he was wearing white leggings and shirt with a white overcoat, under nether a white cloak he also had a white staff which he had propped up next to his chair while he ate. He had also shortened his beard and hair so that they were only to his shoulders.

While the students and teachers ate they played a few more songs them went down to eat dinner. They went to a table in the corner of the room that only had a few people on it and Harry helped his friends to order their food as Lara refused to ask an inanimate object for her meal.

"Look Lara as strange as it sounds this is the Magical World just say what you want and you'll get it." Harry insisted when it came time fore Lara to order her dessert.

"No, Harry I am not going to talk to my plate."

A few people around them turned to watch the debate but soon went back to their meals.

"Look it's easy," Jane said, she looked at the menu then said what she wanted and it appeared on her plate.

"See, Jane can do it." Harry reasoned.

"I don't care, I'm not hungry anyway." Lara snapped, pushing her plate away.

"Then why are we having this discussion." Harry complained, before turning back to his meal.

"Come on we need to get back on stage." Dani said as she finished her meal.

"Yeah, let's go." Jack acknowledged.

They quickly finished their meal and walked back round the other tables to the stage where they waited for Dumbledore to address the school again. While they were waiting they quickly went over the list of songs that had appeared for them with the students' requests.

"Now that you're all feed," Dumbledore said when the food disappeared, "I think it is time for some dancing. If you would all stand we will clear the floor." Dumbledore waved his wand and the tables and chairs moved to the sides of the room and several disappeared to make room for the dancers. When people started to move to the centre of the room they started to play the first song on the list.

Jane: I don't give a damn 'bout my reputation
You're living in the past it's a new generation
A girl can do what she wants to do and that's
What I'm gonna do
An' I don't give a damn ' bout my bad reputation

Oh no not me

An' I don't give a damn 'bout my reputation
Never said I wanted to improve my station
An' I'm only doin' good
When I'm havin' fun
An' I don't have to please no one
An' I don't give a damn
'Bout my bad reputation

Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me

I don't give a damn
'Bout my reputation
I've never been afraid of any deviation
An' I don't really care
If ya think I'm strange
I ain't gonna change
An' I'm never gonna care
'Bout my bad reputation

Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me

Pedal boys!

An' I don't give a damn
'Bout my reputation
The world's in trouble
There's no communication
An' everyone can say
What they want to say
It never gets better anyway
So why should I care
'Bout a bad reputation anyway
Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me

I don't give a damn 'bout my bad reputation
You're living in the past
It's a new generation
An' I only feel good
When I got no pain
An' that's how I'm gonna stay
An' I don't give a damn
'Bout my bad reputation

Oh no, not me
Oh no, not
Not me, not me

They continued through a series of fast songs which Jane and sometimes Jack sang to until they got to some of the slower songs, in which Harry and Lara took over. Harry and Jack also swapped instruments so that Harry was closer to the front of the room and could be seen.

Harry: Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
Want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I love you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sings
Come back to me, and forgive everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day Lara: Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Harry & Lara: Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
Lara: It all revolves around you
Harry & Lara: And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
And stars may collide
But I love you until the end of time Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day Oh, come what may, come what may
I will love you, I will love you
Lara: Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place Harry & Lara: Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Ginny sat at one of the tables to the side of the room. She had stopped to have a breather when the first slow song came on but she couldn't find her partner so she was forced to watch.

She listened to the pair one stage as they sang in perfect harmony. She could have sworn that she had heard the guy's voice before, it sounded like the guy they had talked to in the music room. But then that guy had known her and she didn't know anyone who was in a band so it couldn't be.

"Ginny, come dance." Laura shouted from the dance floor.

"Coming," she replied, taking one final look up at the band. To find the keyboard player staring back at her, they continued to stare for a moment before he broke the eye contact and started the next song.

Harry broke eye contact with her. He couldn't tell who she was because of her mask but he didn't feel comfortable staring. What if it was someone he knew? He would be so embarrassed when they had to take their masks off.

He turned his attention back to the song that they were playing.

Songs used – none of them are mine.

My Heart will go on – Titanic

Bad Reputation – Shrek

Come What May – Moulin Rouge.

A/N. thanks to everyone who reviewed, I really appreciate feedback from readers.

A/N2 Someone complained about me saying it was a third year charm. I don't think I made it clear but it is just an illusion he didn't actually change their physical appearance.

Has anyone seen the movie, Dickie Roberts, Former Child Star? It's a really funny movie with David Spade in it. But the credits are the best part; they have all the actors from old movies as they are today, like Kenickie from Grease and Greg, Bobby and Marsha from the Brady Bunch people like that its really funny cause the song they are singing is about how they hate to be known by the roles they use to play. Although it may be my strange sense of humor. I'll just shut up now. Cya.
