Title: Deeper ( Kenny B / Oldrottenhead )
Post by: Kenny B on March 01, 2011, 07:03:19 AM
Deeper ... A sincere thanks to Oldrottenhead for the perfect Lyrics, Vocals
and collaborating on this with me.


You mainly surf around the surface

Or shyly skirt around the edge

Careful not to raise the temperature

Keeping your cool and distance



You won't go deeper

You can't go there





A tidal wave of raw emotion

Bolstered down and hid away



You won't go deeper

You can't go there

It's too dark and dangerous

You might get caught up in the flood

Overwhelmed in spontaneity

That's just a step too much





Detached remote and cold to touch

Feeling distant and unknown

Just the way you like it

Nothing hard or sharp to cut



You won't go deeper

You can't go there

You won't go deeper

You can't go there

It's too dark and dangerous

You might get caught up in the flood

Overwhelmed in spontaneity

That's just a step too much





Hurry quickly home to mother

Snuggle safely in her arms

She'll protect you from the dangers

She will bring light to the dark

Where you can surf around the surface

And shyly skirt around the edge

This has a great vibe. Melodic, with a dark undercurrent. I love the chords changes that give it a real edge on the chorus. The main riff is a killer too. A mighty fine piece of work by both of you, and the mix is perfect... total clarity.

Yeah, nice one.

It's got good "wide" feel to it in the stereo. Love the bass riff and, like Greeny, I think those chord changes add a real edge to the chorus .

Love that riff, it's a killer and the sparse arrangement works really well, it gives real space for the vox. Which of course work so very well again, third of Jim's collabs in a row that I have listened to!

Excellent collab guys, very well written song Kenny and great vox Jim.

Cheers,

Nigel

Wow, this is great...simple but totally infectious riff in the verse, and the wonderfully melodic chorus.

Excellent vocal and the production is second to none.

It all adds up to a very special song.

Thanks again for listening and all the compliments ... ORH made these chord
changes work and happen ... otherwise, this tune would not have happened.
