Paul Bush Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) Hi guy`s .. well I`ve gone as far as I can with this one using three types of headphones, auto speakers , and my nans hearing aid , and every time i still couldnt decide Ive added the lyrics just so you can make sense of it all Ive also left the rough demo on sound cloud until i need more space for new songs... have fun cheers paul Guns of Navarone paul bush Well we`v sat three times through ``four funerals and a wedding´´ and we`v ate all the cookies from the jar, We`r sitting miles apart on our secondhand couch could this be our.... ``bridge too far´´ ? ... Well every Wednesday night is scrabble and a pint, with our new friends we met in Corfu...well he´s so funny and she`s so smart...do they feel just as lost, Like we do ? Oh for pitys sake, We dont need a break Is it time we tried something new Stop being meek and mild, I say lets go wild Break out the vodka and our dancing shoes Maybe We´ll try a new postion do it in the rough It all depends on my condition Once is not enough I´m made of sterner stuff it just cant be a sin doing it behind Tesco`s wheely bins on a saturday or a rainy day in the park …..solo...... Well I´ll arm wrestle , any man in the bar Fight off the man who wants to tear us apart Draw pistols at dawn If that`s what it takes ( or you can burn me at the stake yeah) I´ll play a walk-on part in a period piece , Swe-ep you up in my arms on the edge of a cliff r riding horses on on an empty beach …..We can be just who we want...... I´ll wear a ruff just like ``shakespeare in love´´ Fight Mr D àrcy in a freezing cold tub.....climb a office block ten stories high , jump off the top and write your name in the sky I`ll even drink my beer shaken not stirred, Wear a bunny outfit just like in Bridget Jones , Wear a mask just like in eyes wide shut ..….Untill you just cant get enough..... Join a club, for swingers with loose ends, Just like the couple from the flat downstairs Rent a black tuxedo just for one day you walk around in red lingerie Oh for pitys sake, We dont need a break There´s time to start something new Lets dance into the dark unknown, till we have grown …..We can be just who we want.....

noynekker Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Paul, really like the way this turned out . . . it's very fun to listen to ! Thanks for posting the lyrics for this one, there's so much going on there, so it's great to read along and have a better understanding . . . I think the lyrics (and vocals) are very strong, and your guitar work has that rockin' edge to it (as always) . . . seriously, did you really use "my nans hearing aid" ? LOL, so much fun, whatever it takes . . . you got that great result. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Bush Posted January 20, 2023 Author Share Posted January 20, 2023 Hi chaps . thanks for the comments ,and yes of course I used my nans hearing aid , and my grandads ear trumpet as well , I´m sort of pleased with the outcome i think that the drum break wasnt too good though , I pulled out all the stops on this one productionwise everything ive learned from Mikes creative sauce tutorials, I´m looking forward to the next project cheers paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NatHanSolo Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 This sounds very Aussie pub bandish but in a successful way. Can never really hear accents correctly when singing but it has a great vibe like feeling to it. Great voice, very nice very fine vibrato, really great sound. Not a fan of the low guitar sound at 59sec. loved the break at 1:35, that sounds so very Aussie. Heard lots of songs around this style genre but this song really stands up, great melody lines, great lyrics, a sense of fun with the lead and chord progressions. I can imagine a country pub filled with dancing lovers with laughter and spilled beers. Hoodoo Gurus move over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
