Around You Go - fun, fast original with MBR only

[hardlock]

Here ya go that asked for "want to hear more" 

Again, I don't sing but must admit that after hearing this a million time in editing, it's not too horrible. 

Started out an acoustic jam. Got the right key and the lyrics just wrote themselves.  Hope you like it.

Here's the words:

Around We Go (c) 2010 Ken J Hill
--------------------------------------------
Round n round n round we go
Where we stop nobody knows

Some will leave and some will stay
Some will even have to play
------
Spin the wheel, take a chance
Might win big or lose your pants

Either way you'll have some fun
Why not stay no need to run
------
Got to try and win your way
Step right up - have a laugh today

No point moping & being blue
Just look at all we have for you
------
Here today - gone tomorrow
Lifes too short for feeling sorrow

The carnival now has come to town
Admission's cheap just loose the frown

[The Gobi Desert Canoe Club]

Liked this a lot, nothing wrong with the vocals I wish mine were as good especially at this tempo. Really nice production throughout.      Willie

Ken this is a great song. Has a bit of a J.J. Cale feel to it (not a bad thing in my book). As I've tried some Zappa lately I can really appreciate the difficulty of fast tempo singing and you did a fabulous job on this one !! Not to mention the great guitarwork !!!

Like it ?? Love it !!!

[Tony W]

Gotta agree. I love that funky rhythm. Top level musicianship right here. great stuff.

Well done.

Thanks much all!  I am pretty happy with how this one came out.

Geir, thanks for the comparison.  I looked up JJ Cale (bad memory for names - great with material) and found this song of his.  I'd never heard it before however:

Wow, what a great tune! Spooky how similar - goes to show you there really IS nothing new under the sun!  And I was worried about using that old circus rhyme I swiped.

Anyone know what genre this (these?) might be?

[Redler]

Real fine song, hardlock! Here's a slight JJ Cale vibe and it is just a good thing. I liked this laid back mood on this song. Well performed and produced - I like those clear sounds!
