 MetalHead ( Lyrics and Vocals by David Snyder ) Yes, David Snyder & LazyPianoMan have made their first collaboration! This random collaboration will go down in PG-Music history as a  heavy metal blooper.... but a good one lol   ------------------------------------ From the Backtrack song "No piano tonite" recently published here. ------------------------------------ Metalhead  Lyrics and Vocals by David Snyder  V1  Yeah they call me Metalhead And I’m walking with the dead Been a thousand years Since I been to bed And they call me Metalhead  CH  I could eat the living But I’d rather feast On rotting flesh instead Yeah, they call me Metalhead  V2  They call me the Prince of Doom I have Metallica On a poster in my room The blackest black apocalypse Is coming, is coming soon   CH  And there’s darkness And death before the gloom Yeah And I’m digging, digging my own grave I am the only soul you’ll  never save  And I’m dancing with the dead And they call me They call me Metalhead  V3  Black Sabbath Alice Cooper Motley Crue Like a snake Don’t have no shoes And I am black and I am blue Meet me tonight I will chew on you Until you’re dead It’s what I said  CH They call me Metalhead, Yeah I will eat Your mortal soul Yeah I’m under your bed Don’t look now, it’s Metal Head

Doesn't sound a thing like Alan Jackson - oh wait - wrong song!
 Very interesting, for sure. Not my favorite flavor, but well done! There's a lot of creativity here. It's obvious a lot of time and effort went into this. The various effects throughout are pretty cool!
 
 And David, this right down your alley! You excel at this genre. Kudos to both of you.

Ok, I`m awake now!
 A weekend production? It would take me a month to come up with a track like this... but maybe I missed something, like your original backtrack.
 Anyhoo this is fun though I just don`t have the guts to really crank it as it deserves.
 Love that machine gun guitar? part and the gravel in your zombie vocal,David.

Al-David I'm sure our main artist will show up soon. I was very surprised, how quickly David put lyrics & vocals to this song. |  |  |  |  |

Hello, LPman
 Great collaboration with David Snyder!
 I was very surprised with this tune!
 You have not only jazz talent but also heavy metal talent.
 Coexistence is a really surprise.
 I also give unstinted praise to David's talent to do anything.
 Just like Alan I have no knowledge of this type of music.
 However, I enjoyed this with great interest.
 
 Best regards.

Hey thanks everybody for all the kind words. This was really Lazy Piano man's song, I just had fun with it.  From the moment I heard the original bed (his first version) I was like "Oh yeah..I have been wanting to do this since high school!!" I think the lyrics actually came out exactly as they were in the second listen, and I only did one take because that kind of singing will kill your throat. When I saw the Metal-Head picture with the soup can head I nearly lost it. I was laughing so hard I couldn't breathe. This was A LOT of fun. Thanks Lazy Piano man!!!!  |  |  |  |  |

In deference to you two guys we've finally listened to a metal song all the way through     Well at least the first one in decades. And it was a helluva lot of fun.  Would love to see the BiaB RT's/RD's listed. The production sounds great on the KRK's.  In your face, yeah, but still a tiny bit of room to breathe.   Kudos!! J&B PS Photo iced the cake.

twenty years ago I found myself dancing with a girl at a weddingto a song called "Macarena." Everyone spells it their own way...
 Anyways I told myself I would not be caught dead dancing to this "Macarena." song....... but she was very inviting & would refuse to believe she was half my age! So now I remember the "Macarena." in a whole new light.
 
 thanks for posting  Janice & Bud

well David I think it is best to say that we all signed a confidential document... it is not even close to the truth, but I think it's best to say..... 
 Tip: 0ne should learn who one is Dancing with in,the ranks of a new family..... luckily someone knew me and rescued me from the situation.. . but I will never forget how she made me feel 20 again at the age of 40... now it's 60 I wonder what happened to her

Cool collab!!  David is all over the map, and in cases like this, maybe off the map, but in a good way.  Definitely an enjoyable journey to an alternative universe.  Well done!!  Take care.  Greg |  |  |  |  |

Definitely need more metal heads on Band-in-a-Box.
 Great sounding track, reminds me of some old southern style metal. Amazing work on the guitar parts.
 
 Keep them coming, these are my kinds of jams!
 
 C-sharp when you cross the street… or you’re going to B-flat.
