Ricochet — Original Songwriting, Grand Piano & Lead Vocals

Ricochet — Original Songwriting, Grand Piano & Lead Vocals

THE BRIEF — THE GOAL

The goal was to create an emotionally powerful, piano-driven rock song combining the timeless songwriting qualities of Queen, The Beatles, Elton John and Billy Joel with a contemporary sound.

I wanted to develop a song built around memorable melodies, meaningful English lyrics, rich harmonies and an expressive vocal performance — something that could resonate with an international audience while retaining the authenticity of classic songwriting.

WHAT I CREATED

I wrote and composed Ricochet from the ground up, developing its lyrics, vocal melodies, harmonic progressions and song structure.

My contributions included:

• Original songwriting and composition
• English lyrics and emotional storytelling
• Vocal melodies, hooks and chorus development
• Harmonic arrangement and song structure
• Lead vocal recording and performance
• Grand piano performance

The final approach centred on voice and grand piano, allowing the melody, lyrics and emotional expression to become the heart of the song.

THE RESULT

A fully realised original piano-rock song combining memorable melodic hooks, expressive vocals and emotional storytelling.

During audience testing, Ricochet was consistently selected as the strongest song among my material, and the voice-and-grand-piano arrangement emerged as the preferred artistic direction.

The project demonstrates my ability to take an initial creative vision and develop it into a complete, distinctive song — from lyrics and melody through to the final performance.
