THEME and VARIATIONS

“Fairytale” - The Butterfly Effect

This song is a Alternative Rock song with the mix of 2I tracks. Pulled from the Cambridge Library. The notes indicated a tempo of 50 bpm. 

I actually stopped at this song while reviewing song selections because the drumming sounded familiar. It is similar sounding to what I might have attempted myself. I also thought at first there might be elements I could work with in the song.
