This song challenges the notion that life, and love in particular, can be lived by simply following a set of rules.

Lyrics:

Some people claim that life is simple.
Just follow each and every rule
You may live your life to the fullest
and you can forget about the rest.

Everything has its own set of rules
Even love has it too
But I can't follow the rules of love
Since I fell in love with you

Love makes me feel jealous
Whenever you're with someone
Love makes me lose some sleep
When I think of you all the time

Love makes me blind
Coz I’m unable to see another side of you,
And worst of all
Love makes me lose my mind.

(INSTRUMENTAL ADLIBS)

Love makes me feel jealous
Whenever you're with someone
Love makes me lose some sleep
When I think of you all the time

Love makes me blind
Coz I’m unable to see another side of you,
And worst of all
Love makes me lose my mind.

***
Love makes me blind
Coz I’m unable to see another side of you,
And worst of all
Love makes me lose my mind.

This track was sequenced on Reason.
The vocal track was done on Yamaha Vocaloid 5 with Chris as the voice bank.
The solos were generated from BIAB, Shearing solos. The vocal solo is from the same generated solo using the top melody of the solo.

Thank you for listening.

So much fun!! A great, creative big-band track…you used the brass section so well..and the solo area was well-done. How you ever created the “scat” section with the synth voices singing various sounds is beyond me!! This is an excellent “tutorial” on what can be done out of the BIAB toolkit + synth voices. Thanks so much for posting!

Thank you very much for listening and your comment. Me too had a lot of fun playing with BIAB and the vocal synths.

Great skip-along music. Good lyrics and mix, plus the piano solo fits perfectly.

Yep, love rules when there are none. Fine vocal, and the horns you added bring in so much goodness. I love he whole song including the hand claps. The scatting sounded at first rehearsed, like prepared rather than jammed (which is fine, of course). But changed my mind as it grew; it's so darn good. Man, you have such a good vocal range.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Noel,Tom said it best, " This is an excellent “tutorial” on what can be done out of the BIAB toolkit + synth voices".
Scatting synth vocals! Brilliant!
Everything about this one is top shelf.

Thank you very much. Actually the idea was just an accident, you know , those 'what if' moments. I started it the song Hiding which I posted earlier. I'm glad it worked out. Thanks

Thank you very much especially commenting on my vocal range. Unfortunately, as I mentioned on the track description, the vocals were done with the Yamaha Vocaloid, a vocal synth. Thank you very much.

Memorable tune! I was bopping along with my listen. Great work with the vocal synths. It sounded authentic, especially the scat.
