My latest 3 minute toe-tapper. I hope it makes you smile.

Another good one. Like those backing vocals.

Nice oompah groove Keith - always a good start in my book. BGVs are just great - made me smile and kudos for getting 'misdemeanour' into a lyric -  extra points for that. ?

Since I'm a bit of a lardo in my advancing years, the original line was "it just makes the other man's ***** look leaner" ... but it sounded too much like "cleaner" so it had to go ?

Hi Keith - really good track and I like the lyrics

Thought the backing vocals were excellent

cool stuff

A toe tapper indeed.  I echo the above kudos on the BGV's but also on the lead vocal.  Oh ya, lyrics also.  Great work!!

Thanks Mark, duly de-essed where necessary using Melodyne.

Lots to like here, but particularly ther BGV's, sweetly hard panned? Lovely chorus effects? Care to dish the secrets of the smoooooth bgv??

As advertised, toes were tapping. And I loved the mix, nothing poked up and out of place. The lead vocal was clean and crisp without being crispy.  Well done!

cheers,

No secret Tom, I sing each part twice and pan one left and the other right, that way I figure they won't clutter up the centre where the lead vocal is, plus is gives (me) a nice sensation in the old lug-holes. There's no chorus effect, just a bit of EQ to take some lower frequencies off.

This was featured on BBC Radio Cumbria's "Introducing" programme last night.

FF to 1:05:55 for my bit.

That’s great - I’ve submitted a couple of tracks but no luck so far. Your song had a bit of a Billy Ocean groove going on to my ears. Catchy as heck, lovely production, well sung and played, great stuff.

I've had three played so far, but there's about another 15 that they didn't like enough, so keep plugging away.
