More than meets the eye

[DarrenG / The Devil's Toupee]

Been away for about 10 days so just getting back onto the site..
story behind the song - sometimes you wonder what the artist is really selling?

(Art Corey wrote the lyrics to this one. Myself and keith provided the music.)

MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE

1st Verse
Looks into the audience gives a sexy smile
Shakes her money maker, all the crowd goes wild
Singin' all the right songs, she doesn't miss a beat
It's just a grand illusion, she's got them on their feet

Sellin' more then music tonight
Sellin' more than meets the eye

2nd Verse
Singin' kind of sultry, her singin' sets you free
Singin' to the whole room, but she's lookin' right to me
Mama never told me a girl could be this sweet
When the temperature is chilly, but all I feel is heat

Sellin' more then music tonight
Sellin' more than meets the eye

Chorus
All the smoke and flashing lights
All the body moves all right
Sellin' more then music tonight
Every breath and every sigh
It makes you rush out and makes you buy
Sellin' more than meets the eye

3rd Verse
You see her on the TV she makes the nightly News
Fans line up to see her, she's getting rave reviews
This tintillating music and pomp and circumstance
Standing in the front row and makes me want to dance
Dance, Dance, Dance..........

Sellin' more then music tonight
Sellin' more than meets the eye

Chorus

I listen to this via new bluetooth phones and I must say I haven't this good production for awhile. Excellent songwriting, performance and arrangement!

Brilliant job by all of you!

[StephenM]

sounds like Taylor Swift!  lol... wow man this is absolutely deadly Darren!  right out of the gate it rocks me and rolls me.... and it's right up front in the face, those guitars and that bottom end... wicked stuff man...
I spent alot of money on albums with tracks of much less quality than this... I feel fortunate to hear this for free!  hell yeah man...
this sounds great cranked up and this sounds great down low... either way it thumps you in the chest just right...

the words are great and Keith's vocal delivery brings the goods... really makes me believe it...
and your work with the music is outstanding... rock don't get better than this my friend!
and to quote Willie, this checks all the boxes for me (not that I have any boxes... but I do like the way that sounds)

Great rocking song guys! Lovely guitar tones and the lyrics are funny yet true, it feels like the industry is focused more on looks these days. Stellar production and that high note Keith hits at the end is tremendous. Very cool!

Jeez, this is too good. That guitar really hits the spot for me. I was a proper 80's metal head nut job and loved that highly produced lead tone. Gary Moore went in for it a bit in his rock phase. This track is the definition of attitude. Guys fantastic all round, love it.
