series by Stephenie Meyer
IMPORTANT NOTE!!! If you have not read The Twilight Saga, I strongly advise you to NOT read the descriptions of these tracks until you have read the books or seen the movies. THERE ARE DEFINITE SPOILERS BELOW.
This song, which has alternate title of Feel What You Feel, is the first-ever instrumental I wrote inspired by a novel, and it is also featured on the first video I ever uploaded to Youtube. SPOILER ALERT: This music was somehow playing in my head during the scene when Jacob puts Bella in a position where she must ask him to kiss her.
SPOILER ALERT: This particular song took a while for me to write. I knew as soon as I read the chapter "Balancing" in New Moon (sequel to Twilight by Stephenie Meyer) that balance was the very thing this music needed. If it had too much drama, it would sound like many other instrumentals I'd written. On the other hand, if it didn't have enough emphasis on the pain Bella was going through while returning to the first place Edward had ever kissed her, it would fall flat; something would be off. The honesty would be missing. So, this is what the finished project came to be.
Almost everyone in the world now knows how much Bella loves Edward. Friend, Kevin Kyle, played an electric guitar solo for this one. SIDE-NOTE: I know Edward's eyes weren't gray, even when he was human. (They were green.) The problem I came across while writing, however, was that green doesn't rhyme with away. :)
Your eyes are holding me right now
And they have turned a darker gray
And not one breath escapes your mouth
As you lean in and take mine away
You touch my face and all my worries are gone
Oh, just a little bit closer now
Another star is born in the sky above
And you know I'm just a little bit closer
To a world I'm not afraid of
I want you more than I want life
I need you near me every day
There's a fire trying to get out
But that's the price we have to pay
For all the demons in you
And all the fear that's not inside me
(Repeat Chorus)
You're keeping me from
A world I'm not afraid of
If you could hear what's in my mind
All the thoughts I keep at bay
Not one breath would leave your mouth
As you leaned in and took mine away
Music for Bella and Jacob in the book New Moon by Stephenie Meyer. In this song, you may notice a similar sound to "Jacob's Kiss". This is because I wanted these two characters to have a theme song, so each piece of music is sort of tied together this way.
This is my own version of "Bella's Lullaby" referred to in the first book of the Twilight Saga. I was kind of reluctant to write one, considering all of the other renditions out there, but I hope you like it.
SPOILER ALERT: This is music I composed inspired by the first night Edward and Bella spend together on Isle Esme as husband and wife.
Music I wrote about a year ago that I've finally been able to finish with the right instruments. As for the title, I don't think it's really a spoiler anymore, but those who have read the books can probably piece it together.
SPOILER ALERT: I know that Bella's transformation into a vampire is very scary and tense in the books as she keeps her mouth tightly closed, not wanting Edward to sense the unbearable pain she is experiencing, and I understand that, in some views, this piece of music doesn't really fit the feel of the scene. All the same, I wrote it with this fact in mind: Bella is turning into a beautiful, sparkly-ish creature. Even though it's painful and occurring at a fairly inconvenient time, it IS what she has been begging the Cullens for... for over a year. ** Also, don't forget that at the same time all of this is happening, Jacob is learning something very new about himself and the tiny person he has imprinted on. :)
SPOILER ALERT: This is a piano solo inspired by the Breaking Dawn character Renesmee. More specifically, it is for the moment when Bella first meets her daughter after being turned into a vampire. This moment is very special for everyone, because it is here that Renesmee is finally able to show her mother the powerful gift she has been given.
