Since it’s October and Halloween is coming around, we chose to sing about Halloween. We chose the song “House of Memories” by scrolling through old songs we used to listen to back in around 2020, and we spun a wheel. When first writing the lyrics, we were thinking about the feeling of Halloween, like cold and spooky, rather than the cutesy dressing up and costuming vibe. During recording, we went in practically blind and spent a lot of time in the booth re-recording because we’d barely thought about how we’d sing it with the music, which is something I think I could do better next time.
Here are some of the insights about our parody lyrics: We couldn’t find a lot of spooky words to put in the lyrics which would match the syllables for the original lyrics, so we had to separate some verses. We had the most fun singing the “WHOAOAOAOOA” which was in the intro, the middle of the song, and the ending.
