Helsinki

This is the chosen song, and I will start by studying the structure of the song.

Intro

0.00 - Intro
0.15 - bass enters

Verse 1

0.30 - Singing enters
0.31 - Drums enter

Pre - chorus 1

1.01 - bass, synth and vocal changes, tension built

Chorus 1

1.17 - guitar riff, tension released

Verse 2

1.32

Pre - Chorus 2

2.10

Chorus 2

2.26

Verse 3 (different style to 1 and 2)

2.42

Pre - Chorus 3

3.28

Chorus 3

3.58

Outro

4.12 - same as Chorus 3, but with vocals
4.29 - everything but synth cuts out
4.37 - song ends

I need to cut the length of the song down to under 4 minutes, aiming for something around 3ish for the time being (although I will hopefully make a full version too).

Things to possibly cut:

1. A bar from the intro , taking off about 7 seconds
2. Cut out a section of vocals at the 4.12 point
3. An entire verse - possibly the second, as well as taking out the linking chorus
4. Cut out about 5 seconds from the synth right at the end of the song
5. Remove chorus 2/3

Update: The song has been edited, and was first uploaded with the drafts of the video
