Tim and I joined forces for the summer festival submission ... on my side I strummed out loud the electric guitar, careless as a kid (I almost forgot what it was like!!!), and Tim added a monstrous bassline (and cool guitar mini licks) and wrote this summer's anthem like we know he can do. Epic, starting from the title LoL !

Billionaires

we are the billionaires of summer
billionaires of a different currency
we are rich in chords and chorus girls and wine
that flows waist deep
in the avenues of green

billionaires who go swimming in the stream
with busby berkeley sunlight
dancing on the water

we are the billionaires of summer
stray dogs in the swelter and the heat
but the sun makes rock stars out of all of us
our swimming pools are fountains in the street

we are rich in chords and chorus girls and wine
that flows waist deep
in the avenues of green

billionaires just letting off some steam
with busby berkeley sunlight
dancing on the water

cause when the whole world is wet with tears and rain
you never think July will come around again
but here she is melting ice creams in her hand
and leaving footprints in the sand

we are the billionaires of summer
billionaires of a different currency
we are rich in chords and chorus girls and wine
that flows waist deep
in the avenues of green

we blend in like secret service spies
with standard-issue shades upon our eyes
air-conditioned chariots
as the asphalt starts to melt
you should see the things we've seen
just off orion's belt

we are stray dogs in the swelter and the heat
our swimming pools are fountains
slow motion droplet dreams

and artificial intelligence
can't write songs like these
artificial intelligence
can't write songs like these
this is our disease

we are the billionaires of summer

and artificial intelligence
can't write songs like these
artificial intelligence
can't write songs like these

this is our disease

Life is not about the number of Breathes you take, it is the amount of times your breathe is taken away

Always admire your lyrics, Tim and this is a cool collab. That bass line sounds terrific and stellar vocal. Just keeping that kick drum as the drum track works perfectly even when the production builds towards the end of the song.

I had listened to this earlier today just to get a feel of how it went. Now after a few more listens there seems to be a lot happening with minimal things taking place, if that makes sense. The guitar on the right has some interesting things going on and I like the occasional displacement then you come back in. Really great arrangement and the lyrics sorta have a Neil Peart likeness of how he approached poetry. There are some influential things I hear but for the most part a nice originality. Now your gonna tell me you wrote it 20 mins...that's how most of the good ones are. Cool Stuff Guys.
