[MONTHLY THEME] March: Parades ~ Due March 31!
March is the month of rain and spring and luck, but for this monthly theme, let's do..
Because March -> march music -> parades! Ahaha. Yep. Pick a song that sounds like march/parade music. If you are unsure of what woul work as "march/parade" music, check out Wikipedia's definition:
Please note that the music itself does not have to sound like a march. It can also be a march- or parade-themed song! For the purposes of this theme, the definition of what would be parade or march music will be very broad.
Guidelines
Not sure what to do?
Please post your entries in this thread. Include the title of the piece that you have done. If you have a portfolio, you can upload it to your portfolio (ex. in Share Your Work) and then LINK to the post with the entry. However, entries will only be accepted if you post them to the thread. Please do not post a video on your portfolio and expect us to just know that it is your entry for the monthly theme. You must also make a post about it in this thread linking to your entry.
We hope you enjoy this monthly theme! If you would like more information on how the monthly themes work, you can go here. If you are not sure whether or not your entry will fit, feel free to ask!

Parades
Because March -> march music -> parades! Ahaha. Yep. Pick a song that sounds like march/parade music. If you are unsure of what woul work as "march/parade" music, check out Wikipedia's definition:
Wikipedia wrote:A march, as a musical genre, is a piece of music with a strong regular rhythm which in origin was expressly written for marching to and most frequently performed by a military band.
Please note that the music itself does not have to sound like a march. It can also be a march- or parade-themed song! For the purposes of this theme, the definition of what would be parade or march music will be very broad.
Guidelines
- Your entry must be done in the month of March to be accepted.
- You can sing in any language.
- Your piece of work does not need to be vocaloid-related.
- If you are covering a song, it should be at least 1:30 minutes long.
- If you wish to write translyrics, please write translyrics for the whole song.
- If you are doing art, please do at least half-body! A background is preferable, but if you can't do that, that is fine, too.
- In one or two sentences, please explain how your entry fits the theme.
Not sure what to do?
- How about cover Dummy March or Parade? Or Pumpkin March? The Red Shoes Parade? A March of the Eve ~ Halloween Parade? For a more upbeat song, what about Happy Synthesizer?
- Your OC in a marching band uniform?
- Write a fanfic about a Vocaloid song that uses marching band/parade music, such as Dark Parade?

YOU JUST SUPER GOT AWAY WITH USING A PUN.
Such a weird prompt but I want to give this a shot xD

Re: [MONTHLY THEME] March: Parades ~ Due March 31!
Quick question, can the song sound/have a circus/carnival feel to it since parades and such are common at carnivals/circuses and often sound similar to marches/parades?
Re: [MONTHLY THEME] March: Parades ~ Due March 31!
If you can justify it and make it fit into the theme, that's fine with me. xD I added an extra thing this time where you have to explain how your song fits the theme.

Well, not use my Rondo cover, because I started that beforehand. BUT I WAS GOING TO DO ART FOR IT and I haven't started it yet
Re: [MONTHLY THEME] March: Parades ~ Due March 31!
Looks like a lot of fun. I'll try and get something submitted sometime after I can post URLs.
Re: [MONTHLY THEME] March: Parades ~ Due March 31!
Here's my entry:
End of the Journey, Laments of the Sky
The song I chose, 'End of the Journey, Laments of the Sky', fits the theme because the music sound similar to that of a gypsy round that would be heard at a carnival, which sounds similar to a march to me. Plus, the lyrics are telling the tale of a guy traveling around and marching is a means of traveling around so....literally, the song matches I guess.XD

:D
Does Sweets Parade count?
It has Parade in the title. I think that really is the only connection.
I didn't draw it that way because it'd be a pain to do that (and I dont quite want to put feet on them.) , but cant you just imagine a line of sweet goodies marching towards you?
this isnt a very serious entry at all.
it's not quite 1:30, but.. missing 4-5 seconds?
Aeon is just kinda bored and procrastinating so I half expect this to not even get accepted >_>

@Aeon: yep, it would count. Has parade in the title xD The missing few seconds will be acceptable since you did the art yourself, too.
Re: [MONTHLY THEME] March: Parades ~ Due March 31!
submission swaggg
Reason I chose this song: DoReMiFa Rondo's introduction contains a snare drum typical of a march, as 40m-P creates a collective song containing references to his past songs and events in his real life as Miku continues to march endlessly throughout the video. I've always loved 40m's songs and wish him happiness in his life with his wife and his then-newborn child. It truly evokes the feeling of spring and the determination to keep moving forward.

OwO my entry : TeYutte<3
How does this fit the theme?: The background music to this song reminds me of a marching band, which brings on the ambiance of a march. Not only does this song have a range of classical instruments played, the beat of the song was a strong and repeating one (which is part of the definition of a march xD). Plus the song was cute ; A;

Entry: My Neighbor Totoro- Stoll
How I justify it: In the beginning of the movie Mei, the little white spirit, a soot sprite, and some other tiny creatures are seen walking as the music plays. Kinda like how people march in parades while music is played by marching bands.

Entry: Karakuri Pierrot
Reason for choosing this song: I'm honestly don't really know if this song fits the "march" theme well |'D. The original arrange of this song was a bit more "march"-ish being 40mP and all, but the acoustic arrange I choose to use has march-like elements such as the snare drum and the steady repeating rhythms. The song overall is about rejection and sometimes getting over it can feel like one really long tiring march.

My Entry: the cake is a /lie/
Why? Why? because it had parade in it |D But, I looked further in and say the translyrics and I thought it'd be like a /protest/ (yes.) It's about rejected love.. I guess. There's really no 'march-y band' stuff but, this song first came into my mind when I heard about the March Event.

Re: [MONTHLY THEME] March: Parades ~ Due March 31!
Added ^__^ all!
And been busy the last few days, so just in case I don't have time to redo this. >_<
Entry: Garakuta Parade
Reasoning: This song is about how a bunch of people who view themselves as trash are unable to give up their dreams. Even though they are viewed as garbage, they still try to reach "there" (Heaven? a happy place? I'm not really sure). They are the garbage parade, who keep going, no matter what.
