I let my 14 year old daughter give it a listen under headphones and when she got to the first chorus, she started laughing uncontrollably -- I think it was the handclaps and banjo. Hmmmm, what could that mean? So here's my little "pop" tune.

This is very good work- thanx for sharing! My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not. 64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

It comes across (to me) that you were happy when you wrote this song. Well done Best regards Michee Windows 11 64 bit, Biab 2023 1006, Realband 2023 (1) i7 Desktop Computer 16Gb Memory

It's very inventive and very enjoyable. I agree with michee that it sounds like you had a whole heap of fun assembling this creation. Best regards, Noel MY SONGS...

mglinert Expert Joined: Jul 2007 Posts: 996 France, but I'm an ex-pat Brit	This all sounds pretty good to me Kevin The mixed genre thing it not a problem at all. Sounds to me that you’ve got a bit of a showstopper there too – can hear that sequence at the end going on for a good 15 minutes as the band rocks out in front of a packed sports stadium. The rhyme police might fine you for ‘lover’ / ‘trouble’ though! Marc's SoundCloud Marc's YouTube

I appreciate the visit. George: It is a happy little tune. My moods don't usually affect what I write about, but who really knows... Thanks for the comments. Noel: I was hoping the banjo would work in there with the urban style percussion -- you never know until you try. Marc: Hey, I thought lover and trouble went well together. Hmmm, just went to my on-line rhyming dictionary -- that combo isn't in there. I think I'll write my own rhyming dictionary! Ha, ha -- thanks for the visit and the comments. It is appreciated.
