Hi, I LOVE your song called HEAVEN SAYS, so I was wondering what it was like making this song

Hello,

I wrote the original HEAVEN SAYS around a year ago as a Deltarune fan song because I had just played Chapter 2 and was thinking about other darkworlds and where they could take place in the town and I thought one in Toriel's classroom would be fun.

A little bit after that original version I made the remake that most people know because I wanted to try to make something simple to try out some new samples I found.

As for making the song itself, I always wanted to use samples from a Speak and Spell in a song because I thought it had a really interesting sound and so I'm glad to have finally done it. I mainly just used FL Studio and a bunch of free soundfonts you can get online. Looking back at it now I think the song is a little simple and the melody really is almost non-existent, I'm not really sure if I even like this song anymore lol. But it has a vibe to it I guess and people seem to like it.

The lyrics really don't mean anything and I picked them almost at random with the limited words the speak and spell had. I also would have removed the direct Deltarune/Undertale reference in the lyrics had I known how popular it would be with people outside of that community.

The response to the song has really been overwhelming, which I mean it's not like a super popular song or anything but for me it has been a lot. I didn't want to write music because of the amount of attention it was getting it kinda spooked me. But I think it's good that people have been enjoying it (I mean mainly enjoying Gameplayah's cover lol). I've enjoyed seeing all the edits and covers people have made. I've also made some good friends through it like my friend Yuki who helped make some character designs for the song although we never really ended up finishing them... I still want to use something similar to these characters in a game I want to make but I don't know if I'll be able to finish it.

...But that's all I've got to say I guess. Thanks for your question!

Enjoy the Diner is out now!!!!

Enjoy the Diner is out NOW! I played the Japanese version earlier this year and it blew me away with its visuals, story, and music. It’s a strange game with a lot of heart. Because of my love for the game I’m really glad that I’ve been able to help with the English translation. Play it here! A Switch version will also be released later.

Also listen to this cover I made. The music in the game is really good.
