Athena "My Goodbye" Snippet - Song 9 (Patreon)

Here's the early access snippet for this month! This is the first verse and chorus from Athena's "My Goodbye." After Odysseus stands his ground with his own philosophical beliefs against Athena's during the battle with the cyclops, Athena decides he is no longer worthy of being the Warrior of the Mind.

The actual key of this song is 3 semitones higher than the key in this video! If you want, I can show y'all the "Jay chipmunk" version, which is what I send to other demo singers (in this case, Teagan) so that they can learn the song in their key without having to worry about transposing. It's very funny to listen to.

I'm really excited about this song; the orchestration changes throughout the verses, focusing solely on piano, marching drums, and a beat made out of a ticking clock for Athena's verse, then transitioning to electric and acoustic guitars along with some cinematic and orchestral percussion for Odysseus's verse. The two go back and forth in the bridge and the instruments reflect that as the song reaches its climax. This song is important because we see Odysseus and Athena go at each other's throats verbally, leading to a separation that lasts many years. By the time they see each other again, they will have both undergone massive changes. Character arcs!! :)))
