daryl1968 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) Hi folks This one is out and out punk pop fun - Ed and me threw it together in a couple of days all told. Had a lot of fun with this one The current Mrs Daryl1968 makes a brief appearance on this one Lyrics below link Nits and crits welcome No Imagination Written and performed by Ed Kocol and Daryl Greenway With backing vocals by Liz Greenway Verse 1: Always been a simple man Doing right, the best I can Eat, sleep, work. Well, that's the plan Never gone beyond a white work van Prech Fancy cars are not my style I'll never walk the miracle mile I've aways been a simple guy and I guess that's why that I've stopped tryin Chorus: No imagination Happy with my station All I wanna do Is share my love with you It's been my foundation no imagination All I wanna do Is share my love with you Verse 2 Always been a simple soul, Day by day I play my role. From dawn to dusk, I toil and strive, In that white van I come alive. Prech Chorus Bridge: I don't have to think at all Never been against the wall My world changed because of you I'm gonna see this through with you, with you Chorus Edited 7 hours ago by daryl1968 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSband Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 You do very good pop songs. I'm wondering if I hear some overall distortion on this, are the levels too high or am I? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyB01 Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 And a key change as well - what's not to like 🙂 Great tune and I agree about the rhyming of 'guy and' with 'tryin' - as Tom observes - very clever indeed. Andy 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve@baselines.com Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 I loved it - the attitude, tone, harmonies, hand claps and a modulation that works. It made me think of a video I found yesterday. It was of John and Yoko and a bunch of kids looking at the construction of a new house they were going to buy in the country near the water. This song would perfectly fit the mood of that video I think - at least I can see it all coming together in my head! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks KS. It's a misspent youth. There is a ton of distortion and nastiness everywhere on this one but I don't believe there's any clipping. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wookiee Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Nice pop song, well sung mix sounds like an Ed job, is it just me being picky, probably snare seems a little forward. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But just by a tad. Great song overall. Well produced and played. Singing was very good and up front. Except for the snare that I can't un-hear now!!! : ) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
