TEMPO  I think the part of this song that separates it the most from Childers other work is the tempo, as it's so fast-paced, critics from Holler compared it to a freight train. Even though the song is in 4/4 meter, the piano and guitar riffs make it feel much faster and give a sort of chugging sensation to the song. MELODY For th...

P.S.: This photo is of Easy Street Records in Seattle, my hometown record store I visited all the time! Hello everyone! My name is Bella, I'm 21 years old, and I live in Fairbanks. I work as a firefighter at the University Fire Department, have an associate's degree in Fire Science, and am pursuing a bachelor's degree in Homeland Security and Emergency Management. I'm originally from Seattle, Washington, but moved up here for college and the student firefighting program. I love thrifting, going to the gym, dogsittting, and babysitting on my offdays! As for music, I've always loved music and sang my heart out, even though I suck. I tried to learn the clarinet in 5th grade because I wanted to play saxophone, and my teachers said I had to do the clarinet first. I dropped out of the lessons less than a month in and didn't touch instruments again until high school. I got an electric piano, a ukulele, and a guitar in highschool beacuse I was desperate to play. I tr...
