Acapella Rapeme...
Ok...I'll acapella rape you, I guess...
100bpm 4/4 time
Octave beneath middle C, Basses start on the A beneath that.
"Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelll"
Hold that for three measures
Baritones, above, starting on C# begin in the second measure and hold for two measures
"weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellllll"
Tenors, once more, above, starting on the E beneath middle C, beging in the third measure singing a whole note
"weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellllll"
Rest a measure
Basses starting on the same A
Don't you go awaaaaaayyyyyy
"Don't you go" and the first syllable of "away" are quarter notes going A B C# D
the second syllable of "away" is made up of three slurring notes, the first of which is a dotted quarter note, followed by an eigth note, followed by a half note. The tone, in the bass, is a D for the dotted quarter, D# for the eigth, and E for the half.
simultaneously
Baritones
Don't you go away!
Same pattern in the baritones, only the notes are C#-D-Fnat-F#
Second half of "away" will be F# held in a half note which then moves to a G# half note.
But, half the baritones will sing (instead of the F# half note) an F# dotted quarter note followed by an A eighth note down to the G# half note.
Tenors, boom, during all this will go
Don't you go away!
C#-B-A-A-G#-A
The "A-G#-A" are an eighth note triplet
Then followed by the second half of "away"
D for dotted quarter note above the A, then to C an eighth note and down to B for another half note
Then, Tenors
Or I'll rape you!
D-C#-B-A
All half notes, retardando to 50 bpm over the four measures
Simultaneously Baritones
C#-G#-B-A
And Basses
F#-E-D-C#
There ya go, a fancy schmancy acapella rape song.
