(Don't) Drop the Bomb

[DarrenG / The Devil's Toupee]

This was written and recorded a couple of months ago. The main theme of the song is based loosely about those faceless Terrorists around the world. A sort of
metaphorical bomb. But i thought because of the recent war in Ukraine with Russia..and that Mad man Putin, it might be a time to post it.
It's worrying times, innocent people getting murdered by missiles. And a possible threat of WW3.  Can this world get anymore worse lately?

Thanks for listening.

  ( Don't ) Drop the Bomb

You carry around your world of hate
And you use it like a ...'shield'
No you'll never be carried back upon your shield
While you hide behind it like a coward

(CHORUS)
Bomb, don't drop that bomb, don't drop that bomb...don't drop it
Bomb, don't drop that bomb, don't drop that bomb...don't drop it
Run and hide...

Walking up to that corner
I feel fear and I feel dread
Once around the corner
I feel your gun against my head...BANG!

(CHORUS)
(INST)

How could you sink so low?
With women and children in your sight
You don't care... anymore
"Hold...hold...hold....hold...hold............*****! "

(CHORUS)

[Ray Brookes]

Brilliant production you two with so much going on musically yet everything controlled and mixed perfectly. The message is clear too in these troubling times in Europe. Great work, guys.

[StephenM]

starts out like a new version of Pink Floyd...crazy and cool...that early vocal is superb
loving the bass in this... and some very cool guitar riffing as well... the panning, the mix, the stops and starts, it's a massive track...
pro stuff....
the rhythm guitar is fantastic as well... suffice it to say this will be heard numerous times ...by me!

great job to Keith and you Darren!!!!!   interesting lyrics ... great theme...

wicked cool chorus and effect on the vocals...this is so perfectly produced... put it on the radio!  Heads would melt.

[BerryPatch]

Wicked cool number! Like Stephen said, the vocal effects really add to this track, what a soaring vocal too! It sounds like Keith can sing just about anything. I love the zaniness of the track and all the little sections that piece the song together. I got a bit of a AC/DC makes The Wall kind of vibe. Great fun!

[WarpCanada]

Great song.  Lots of small and well done details add up to a great track.
The background vocals are great.  I'm hearing at least one and maybe two female background vocal performances?

[Pete C]

Great song and very fitting to the current times ! 

[DarrenG / The Devil's Toupee]

Thanks for the comments. Warren, there are actually no female backing singers, it's " all Keith", his pants were probably too tight haha. His range does get pretty high.
I did put some fx in the intro vocals though.

[Farrell Jackson]

This song is so timely. The theme of the music and lyrics are right on the money. Great use of all the vocals in this cool production. Let's pray for a smooth outcome. Well done guys!

[AndyR]

Oh yeah, what a cool track

I got a bit of a AC/DC makes The Wall kind of vibe.

YESS!

With Flo and Eddie on backing vox.

Rocking and multi-layered.
Nice one.
