My hat

w/m: Geir

MBR-80 mics.
recorded, mixed and mastered on MBR-80

Hey my friend
do I still know you?
Hello stranger
how have you been
Good morning sunshine
will it be cloudy?
Good night my dear
it's been a good day!

I'll take off my watch
I'll take off my armour
I'll sit and gaze at an 8 by 8 board
Kings and horses
Queens and towers
all make sense
when you take it slow
with a grin on myface
I'll tip my hat
to a lonely policeman
and a lady with a cat

I'll put on my hat
I'll put on my glasses
I'll drive my car annoyingly slow
I'll sit in the park
with yesterday's paper
feeding the birds
with yesterday's bread
with a grin on myface
I'll tip my hat
to a loony policeman
and the lady with the cat

42
I still don't know the question
6 times nine
base 13 is just weird
I'll stare at Mars
and wave to my grandson
I'll howl at the moon
even tho' it's not full
with a grin on myface
I'll tip my hat
to a lovely lady
and the policeman with the rat

I'll put on my hat
I'll bring my glass
I'll leave my car when I go to the park
I'll check out the chess games
in yesterday's paper
I'll feed the monkey
a banana bread
with a grin on myface
I'll tip my hat
to a lovely policeman
and the lady with the rat

You rule Geirman!

Yes sir this is the bomb! I saw it posted yesterday but didn't want to take the chance of only hearing half of it on my iphone. Love this brother, what a great fun tune so well crafted. I really dig the lyrics especially that 3rd verse but its all magic brother!
Rock On!

Stunning job, Geir! I was caught by the chorus immideately! So, catchy one!!!! Brilliant producing! Ten points for the drum programming, too!

[Farrell Jackson]

This is a real mover of a song Geir! I like your vocals, the lyric, and the catchy chorus but the stand out is that melodic Tele solo...cool!

As ever, top notch. But I'm particularly loving the pre chorus bridge and the solo is lovely and stuttery. Just watch the top end on the mastering though. There is just a hint of 'glassy-ness', just on the edge of sounding a little too processed and a little too 'scooped'. It's a very fine line and I've been guilty of going treble heavy and mid light on a couple of mine.
