Mac, that is the singer's actual name. She's a DJ in my hometown. And a bombshell !  Thanks for listening and viewing.

Noel, George and Mike. Thanks a lot for your comments. Very complimentary and I appreciate it.
George, as I get older I have a tendency to not like the newer stuff, too. After hearing Lady Gaga's Poker Face (loved it) and the whole structure of that song, especially the vocal and synths, it made me want to try something along those lines. I've enjoyed the last 3 songs I've done in that genre.

retake, thanks for listening and your comments. Glad you liked it. trax, thanks so much. You are always so kind. Danny, thanks. I enjoyed doing most of the song and video. But after a point it starts to seem like work. Especially when the old brain ain't coming up with anything.

Hi Charlie, Fantastic!! As with all your vids, I was thoroughly entertained from start to finish. It's all been said above. Later, Jim ps. Only thing is tho--all your videos make me hungry, and all the food disappears before I can even get a smell, let alone a bite. After watching your other videos, I had sort of toyed with the idea of maybe looking you up and dropping in on you for a visit, if I was ever up in your neck of the woods. Seeing as how things are tight all over, I figured your couch would beat a motel room and all. But I've got to tell you Charlie, after watching how food disappears around you, I'm starting to rethink that whole "might drop in on ol' Charlie" business. Guess it's just as well, as I don't travel much anymore anyway.  Later, Jim
I'd be completely happy if I had just one more guitar.

Wow Charlie! first time I wash a video from you. I am amazed, and definitely laughed to die. Excelent music and electronic atmosph so well produced. Voice treatment is crisp and exact. Video is in a overall level very superior to hundreds of crap we can see in YouTube. Have you thought of doing it a business? could win a lot of satisfaction (I mean ..more), and by extension you could become rich and famous 2:25 <--- hahaha lol ! Thanks for share class of amusement :=) Carlos

Charlie,
DANG, that looks like fun! I am inspired by your creativity! Music and video result in an end product that is better than either one alone...
Thanks to you and others (Flatfoot comes to mind... so does Carlos) who are making such music video combinations as examples to the rest of us of what is possible.
And beyond the kudos for having the idea and sharing it, I must say that the execution of it is jaw-droppingly amazing! Not only are the music and the video well done, the concept for the song is also very very clever! Well done! I am very impressed, envious and inspired!

Brian, thank you very much. Mario, thanks for listening and for your comments. jim111, thanks a lot. Give me a call when you come through and we'll get some fries out at the DQ. Carlos, thanks for listening and for your wonderful comments. I've gotten a little old to be rich and famous. I'll leave that to the young guys like yourself. Would like someone to record one of my songs and help with my retirement income, though. I only do it nowadays because I have to (a psychiatrist, years ago, said I was anal (can't let go of anything)). Pat, thanks a lot for your wonderful comments. I am glad you liked it. Powderman, thanks for listening and for your comments. See above about the rich and famous.
