"I'm a Scatman" V2 (multiple easter eggs) by Scatman John

EDIT: You can find the easter eggs through the sheets.

EDIT2: Fixed the tags. I have no clue why I tagged it like that.

I’m still working on this. I just thought that I should update this so you guys know that I’m still working. It’s also gonna sound bad because it uses some of “those” instruments. So you should probably switch to the old player. Sheet 12 is unfinished (it should have vocals)

And thanks to Ace1257 for the notes of the giant scatting part.

COME ON!!! HE LIKES THIS BUT NOT MY SONGS?!?!

Also I thought it was a little weird with the sax, 3/5 so far, 4/5 when it’s finished

Needs more scat.

Move everything to the right by four beats.
Other than that, 'tis gold.

Aliens is right anyway, it isn’t that great.
It just has the “blah” feeling.

OMG I LOVE YOU FOR MAKING THIS, ITS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS OF ALL TIME

Well, I’m getting the notes from a midi I found off the internet, and unfortunately it does not include the complex scatting parts or the awesome rapping parts either. (This next side-note will take effect a little more than half way in the song) Luckily, I have the notes to the scatting part with all the z’s in it, which will take me a while to get there…
Here is the midi: http://midi.homemusician.net/files/scatman/im_the_scatman.mid

  1. I am assuming by beats you mean quarter notes (I don’t know many musical definitions).
  2. When you want me to move it to the right, would you mind that I just make a blank new sheet at the beginning and the last measure of the song on a different sheet, doubling the tempo, and doubling the space between the notes?

I will probably change it to a different instrument in the end, which sounds better to you? A lot of the instruments are out of tune, so its hard to choose -.-

I never heard your songs, so how could I like it yet?

I don’t know how to delete posts, but I will delete this one and the one above when I get the chance

  1. Yes, you’ve got the right idea.
  2. No, I don’t mind at all.

Ok, I edited the song to what you wanted, how is it now?

It’s fine but I would suggest something OTHER than the Synth Bass.
It’s out of tune.

Ok, changed the Synth Bass to Synthesizer #3. The only Synth Bass notes that I didn’t change was the really low ones, since you can barley hear them and if you do, it doesn’t sound out of tune.

P.S. Hint for 1 of the easter eggs: Add a new sheet and type in the final sheet number possible. It is part of ‘Im a Scatman’, it’s a complex scatting part. In the future though… it won’t be an easter egg.

  1. Extend the length value of the cymbals.
  2. Yeah, actually, I meant by 4 eighth notes.
  1. Fixed, unless you want me to double it instead of multiplying each cymbal value by x1.5 (There are only 5 cymbal notes used in the song xD)

  2. Fixed.

  3. Have you found any easter eggs yet?

Say ‘I’ if you want me to pm you what the 3 easter eggs are.

hey!
