Song Building 2 - Never Before

NEVER BEFORE #1 - melody only

Another song in development. This one is a solo for our young female lead, Danae - who takes on a job at the dilapidated care home for the elderly after getting fired from a job as an exotic dancer.

This is a solo for her that is meant to be a lament.

In the musical STEALTHMAN, the real world is a mess. Most of our characters are poor, sad and bitter. Danae is trying to work though college and can't find work. She becomes an exotic dancer, but then gets fired from it (due to her defending the crazy old man who comes into the club acting like he's a super-hero, raises a ruckus.) She helps Nick (Stealthman's son) take the old man to a care home and finds out they need help there. She's able to get a job there but it ends up being a nasty place for employees as well as patients.

This song will likely fall after she first takes the job as an exotic dancer...but maybe after she gets fired from it.

Here's the first pass of Never Before (placeholder name) with only the melody. This orchestration will be of the intro (no singing) but the melody will be the same as the sung verse.
