I know i'm posting too much and contributing too little, but i'm trying to bump up my numbers before the end is nigh! I mean the year ends :)

I got inspired for this song because of Stephens underwater adventures + the talk about lot lizards (!). I can't really sing this, but i did a scratch vocals for it. If someone wants to sing it proper it's here for taking!

Brown Submarine

I was living in a submarine
Felt more like bathtub to me
I was talking to my friend Fox
While she was posing in a magazine

Life divided by three
Six in the morning
Until the coffin calls
Underwater for 90 days
Lack of oxygen breaks my brain

CH:
Brown submarine alert / VOCODER PART
Brown submarine
Uranus rising (ha ha ha) / VOCODER PART
Brown submarine
Stupid song alert / VOCODER PART
Lot lizard approaching underwater / VOCODER PART

V2 (repeats the first)

CH 2:
Missile silo
Brown submarine
It's either danger, or boring as hell
Brown submarine
Missile silo
It's either danger, or boring as hell

Outro:
Lochness monster is real
We can see it approaching it's not a dinosaur
It's a lot lizard aaargh!
Easter bunny come and save us!

I figured there was a tie-in to Stephen, even before I read the post.

You have a very short musical digestive tract, Zoltan. Stuff passes through you quickly. Already a reference to a lot lizard! Impressive! A-A-R-G-H!

A unique and captivating sound, mosquito-like electronic noises weaving in and out of the mix. The robotic vocoder vocals give it a retro-futuristic 1980's new wave feel.  It's the Loch Ness Monster of songs - elusive and mysterious, but utterly mesmerizing.

The vocals are mixed kind of low. Okay, not "kind of," but way too low.

this is so fun... and so funny... those lyrics are true...either danger or boring...yup... danger and insane behavior amidst the drudgery of normal life.. it there could be such a thing as that underwater..

lot lizards...that cracks me up... "Easter bunny come and save US"... that is a great ending to a crazy song...
i dig the vocals but then yes...as Ted says I generally think they can be louder..

that beat you get though is so Electronica and punches holes in me...

brown submarine...I am trying to play drums along with this.

Very fun and joyful song.
I was instantly thinking Beatles, and was happily surprised by this creation.
Thanks for sharing this beauty.
Happy New Year!

Funny how certain people migrate toward the spook. Excellent demo. Box of Frogs mad. There actually was a band called that with Yardbirds members, Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck played on some tracks. I think I still have the tape, probably worth a million pesos, that's like 12 bucks isn't it? I remember being a teenager riding down the trail belting out "Poor Boy" on a snowmobile that couldn't have broken 10MPH I swear (16.09344KPH to the rest of the world). And Jeff Beck did the slide, which I had his albums too at 14.

Anyway, I really liked this, sorry to get off topic. Very good tune!

Odd...oddly entertaining. I missed the inspiration for this, but the music is fun, and the lyrics are a hoot. Nicely arranged. Put a good smile on my face. All I can say is a-a-a-r-g-h!  :)
There are only three kinds of drummers. Those who can count, and those who can't.
