let's start at the very beginning |
|
a very good place to start |
|
when you read you begin with a-b-c |
|
when you sing you begin with do-re-mi |
|
do-re-mi, do-re-mi |
|
the first three notes just happen to be |
|
do-re-mi, do-re-mi |
|
do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti |
|
let's see if i can make it easy |
|
doe, a deer, a female deer |
|
ray, a drop of golden sun |
|
me, a name i call myself |
|
far, a long, long way to run |
|
sew, a needle pulling thread |
|
la, a note to follow sew |
|
tea, a drink with jam and bread |
|
that will bring us back to do (oh-oh-oh) |

|
do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do so-do! |
|
now children, do-re-mi-fa-so and so on |
|
are only the tools we use to build a song |
|
once you have these notes in your heads |
|
you can sing a million different tunes by mixing them up like this |
|
so do la fa mi do re |
|
can you do that? |
|
so do la fa mi do re |
|
so do la ti do re do |
|
so do la ti do re do |
|
now, put it all together. |
|
so do la fa mi do re, so do la ti do re do |
|
good! |
|
but it doesn't mean anything |
|
so we put in words, one word for every note like this |
|
when you know the notes to sing |
|
you can sing most anything, together! |
|
when you know the notes to sing |
|
you can sing most anything |
