daryl1968 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) Hi fabulous forum folks Here's a song written by Patty Lakamp and myself with some great guitar by James Griffiths. Nits and crits welcome. Lyrics below link TMI Written by Staypress and Patty Lakamp © Copyright 2020 Featuring james Griffiths on guitar V1 Why do people tell me All their private stuff? I’ve really had enough You had an operation? You know I’ll be discreet But I don’t need specifics When I’m trying to eat PreChorus No…Don’t say it Cuz I I Can’t take it Chorus Too much information Coming at my head Awkward situation Shoulda stayed in bed Too much information Why you over-share? Too much information Cuz I don’t care V2 You’re trying to fix your love life ...and I can understand But please don’t tell me Everything you’ve planned Glad you found a girlfriend Who’s really into you But spare me the detailed Post-game review PreChorus I never Tell you All the things I do Chorus Middle bit TMI TMI If you want to get personal, I’m not your guy TMI TMI If you think I’m kidding, look me in the eye PreChorus Believe it I mean it So keep it To yourself Chorus to end Edited February 4, 2020 by daryl1968 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garybrun Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 I liked it. Reminded me of the group sound "Madness" Is it meant to sound low_bit? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjornpdx Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Daryl "don't need specifics/when i'm trying to eat" I laughed out loud on that one. Good song. I liked it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnbee58 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 I can relate. I know a few people who love to throw all the gross details in my face. Where did you get those synth sounds? Are they in CbB or did you buy them? Great tune. ?John B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPAK Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 How do you do it? Great song mate ... it has a serious message surrounded in humour .. might use it as a ring tone next time someone tell me about there woes ... "Oh I'll just answer this .. sorry"?

Douglas Kirby Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I really thought this was a fun song - to me it had an 80's vibe - a bit new wave. Your vocal on this made me think of Herman and the Hermits. I enjoyed the lyrics and the mix sounded quite nice to my ears. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhonoBrainer Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 So it's not about jaw pain? Massively creative mix. Unconventional, angular chords and lyrics that slide around, start and stop, quite nicely. The mixing curveballs on the vocals kept it all flowing. I'd say it evokes a certain Wang Chung vibe in spots. As in, "What the hell ever happened to Wang Chung?!?" That Wang Chung. Thanks for the peppy number and the mix was a treat for the ears. My only crit might be the ending, which just cuts off more or less, but hey it knida works. I was expecting a bit more somethingerother on the end there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
