Things -
https://www.reverbnation.com/kaynemusic/song/34789441-things 😎


[Verse]
I got things
I got things
I got too little time
and too many things

I got things so many things
Too little and too many things
Things to do
and things to bring
Just too many things

[Chorus]
I think I'll give you
a song to sing
This song I sing
is all about things
Things we have
and things to do
Like bucket lists
and old brown shoes
Things we done
and things on the run
This is a song
that's all about things

[Verse 2]
And all things
we accumulate
around the house
and in our plates
Things that are big
like diamond rings
And don't sweat
all the small things

[Verse 3 ]
Cat toys
and things that annoy
Household things
and Christmas things
Bring rings wings and ding-a-lings
I guess it's just
one of those things
Whatever the season may bring
We got things

[Chorus]
I think I'll give you
a song to sing
This song I sing
is all about things
Things we have
and things to do
Like bucket lists
and old brown shoes
Things we done
and things on the run
This is a song
that's all about things

[Bridge]
Hopes and dreams By all means
Deeds and Needs
You never know what tomorrow may bring
It ain't over til the fat lady sings
Angles can earn their wings
You can do anything Everything
Be a king
Get into the swing
This is a song
that's all about things

[Chorus]
I think I'll give you
a song to sing
This song I sing
is all about things
Things we have
and things to do
Like bucket lists
and old brown shoes
Things we done
and things on the run
This is a song
that's all about thing

Toe tapping goodness in a modern dress.
Sound-wise I suppose it's not (completely) made with BIAB, but it really has a nice modern vibe.
I like it!

Enjoyed it a lot, Elliott. You make very good music. Toe-tapping fun.

I, too, would like to see the BIAB tracks you used - might want to check them out myself.

The vocal sounds a lot like Tia Goins, a young lady from rural Missouri who didn't quite make it big in Nashville but should have. Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas,

Alan

Hi Elliott,

Very catchy song and excellent production as always.

Oh, well, I love this right from hte start, Elliott. Great song idea and wow some terrific lyrics to develop into this gem. Cool bouncy feel, and I really like that (is is a) synth vocal. You even managed to give her a Nashville accent. Very creative!!


Enjoy whatever happens!

Great song with a great chorus. Who's the equally great vocalist?

Hi, Elliot.

As others have said, catchy and pro.

The singer is obviously AI, since it sang your typo as written ("angles can earn their wings"). I don't recognize the voice from SynthV or Ace Studio, so I'm assuming that it's sung and arranged by something like SUNO.

The lyrics are pretty clever, but it's got that "list song" feel that A Happy Hanukkah Song has, so I'm guessing a good chunk of that originated as AI.

No matter what the origin, it's quite good.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
