Thanks to everyone who reviewed and said songs, however I am only using a two. I already have the songs picked out for Fang's band I just needed two for When the Wind Blows.
I'd like to send a special thanks to Derangedpixie because she (if you're a guy I'm sorry) picked out the song Remember the Name by Fort Minor after I listened to this song I fell in love with them so thank you so much you really inspired this chapter!
Remember the Name by Fort Minor
Disclaimer- JP and Fort Minor
Chapter Erm
MPOV
After we got of the stage we weaved our way through the crowd so that we could watch When the Wind Blows. There where five people on stage all dressed in black jeans and black t-shirts with on red X over the heart. On the drums was a guy who looked about my age with brown shaggy hair. Right in front of him was a tall guy in front of the mic he had blue grey eyes and slivery blond hair. Something about him was extremely familiar. On his left there was another guy he had mocha colored skin and looked about Nudges age with bright green eyes and short brown hair. Then there was a girl who had black hair and brown eyes. She was tuning a violin. Then there was another guy on a keyboard he looked like the girl only with short hair they were most likely twins.
The guy with the blond hair took the mic of the stand and put the stand off to the side. "Yo we are When the Wind Blows! On drums is Aspen." The guy on the drums threw his drumsticks in the air and caught them behind his back the crowd cheered. "On the keyboard is Mike, on the electric violin is Jade and this is Tak." He said patting the guy with the mocha skin's shoulder. "And I'm Omega. This song is called Remember the Name." He said. I froze. Omega. Then jade began to play on the violin. Then Aspen and Mike came in with a really catchy beat. Then omega began to speak.
You ready?! Let's go!
Yeah, for those of you that want to know what we're all about
It's like this y'all (c'mon!)
Omega started to rap.
This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!
And he was really good.
Mike!
Omgea said
Mike began to rap while playing the keyboard.
He doesn't need his name up in lights
He just wants to be heard whether it's the beat or the mic
He feels so unlike everybody else, alone
In spite of the fact that some people still think that they know him
But fuck em, he knows the code
It's not about the salary
It's all about reality and making some noise
Making the story - making sure his clique stays up
That means when he puts it down Tak's picking it up! Let's go!
Tak began to rap and he was amazing.
Who the hell is he anyway?
He never really talks much
Never concerned with status but still leaving them star struck
Humbled through opportunities given despite the fact
That many misjudge him because he makes a living from writing raps
Put it together himself, now the picture connects
Never asking for someone's help, or to get some respect
He's only focused on what he wrote, his will is beyond reach
And now it all unfolds, the skill of an artist
Omega picked it up again.
This is twenty percent skill
Eighty percent fear
Be a hundred percent clear cause Ryu is ill
Who would've thought that he'd be the one to set the west in flames
And I heard him wreck it with The Crystal Method, "Name Of The Game"
Came back dropped Megadef, took em to church
I like bleach man, why you had the stupidest verse?
This dude is the truth, now everybody's giving him guest spots
His stock's through the roof I heard he's fuckin' with S. Dot!
I was so shocked he was so good they all where.
This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!
I found my self bopping to the beat while Omega raped.
They call him Ryu, he's sick
And he's spitting fire
And mike got him out the dryer he's hot
Found him in Fort Minor with Tak!
Tak picked up again
What a fuckin' nihilist porcupine
He's a prick, he's a cock
The type woman want to be with, and rappers hope he get shot
Eight years in the making, patiently waiting to blow
Now the record with Shinoda's taking over the globe
He's got a partner in crime, his shit is equally dope
You wont believe the kind of shit that comes out of this kid's throat Tak!
He's not your everyday on the block
He knows how to work with what he's got
Making his way to the top
He often gets a comment on his name
People keep asking him was it given at birth
Or does it stand for an acronym?
No he's living proof, got him rocking the booth
He'll get you buzzing quicker than a shot of vodka with juice
Him and his crew are known around as one of the best
Dedicated to what they do and give a hundred percent Forget Mike!
Mike picked up
Nobody really knows how or why he works so hard
It seems like he's never got time
Because he writes every note and he writes every line
And I've seen him at work when that light goes on in his mind
It's like a design is written in his head every time
Before he even touches a key or speaks in a rhyme
And those motherfuckers he runs with,
The kids that he signed?
Ridiculous, without even trying,
How do they do it?!
Tak and Omega rapped together it was amazing
This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!
This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!
They ended and everyone went crazy. We had some pretty close competition. "Thanks this next song is called Where'd You Go hope you like it." Tak switched with Jade handing her the mic and she gave him her violin. Mike began a tune on the keyboard and Jade began to sing.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
Aspen came in with a beat on the drums and Omega began to rap again.
She said "Some days I feel like shit,
Some days I wanna quit, and just be normal for a bit,"
I don't understand why you have to always be gone,
I get along but the trips always feel so long,
And, I find myself trying to stay by the phone,
'Cause your voice always helps me to not feel so alone,
But I feel like an idiot, workin' my day around the call,
But when I pick up I don't have much to say,
So, I want you to know it's a little fucked up,
That I'm stuck here waitin', at times debatin',
Tellin' you that I've had it with you and your career,
Me and the rest of the family here singing "Where'd you go?"
They both began to sing and it was so good.
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone,
Please come back home...
Omega raped aging and I was still in shock.
You know the place where you used to live,
Used to barbecue up burgers and ribs,
Used to have a little party every Halloween with candy by the pile,
But now, you only stop by every once and a while,
Shit, I find myself just fillin' my time,
With anything to keep the thought of you from my mind,
I'm doin' fine, I plan to keep it that way,
You can call me if you find that you have something to say,
And I'll tell you, I want you to know it's a little fucked up,
That I'm stuck here waitin', at times debatin',
Tellin' you that I've had it with you and your career,
Me and the rest of the family here singing "Where'd you go?"
They sang again and I felt tears come to my eyes. People all around us where crying.
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone,
Please come back home...
Omgea rapped and his eyes began to glaze over. I could tell that this music had a big impact on his life.
I want you to know it's a little fucked up,
That I'm stuck here waitin', no longer debatin',
Tired of sittin' and hatin' and makin' these excuses,
For why you're not around, and feeling so useless,
It seems one thing has been true all along,
You don't really know what you've got 'til it's gone,
I guess I've had it with you and your career,
When you come back I won't be here and you can sing it...
They sang together again and by this time tears were leaking out of Jade, Omega, and my eyes.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone,
Please come back home...
Please come back home...
Please come back home...
Please come back home...
Please come back home...
People erupted into cheers while When the Wind Blows exited the stage. Fang kissed my forehead winked at me and walked behind the stage with Gazzy and Iggy fallowing behind him.
I love Fort Minor.
