I've Got Yo' Number

Verse 1
I've got your number
I think I know you by now
If I get hung up
I hope you'll find me somehow

There's a place I go
Where the band is hot
And the lights are low
Why don't you come and visit me
After the show… Just let me know

If there’s music in the air, just follow the sound
You might find me on the stage jammin’ down
Or I might just be on my break just hangin’ round

Verse 2
I've got your number
Maybe I'll call you sometime
Might get in trouble
We could be partners in crime

We could have some fun
The house is rockin’ and the night is young
Let’s have some drinks, skip out, and go on the run… Just for fun
End...

The Music and Melody were written by someone from PG Music...

Wow, this is good (and Steely too!).

The layering of the vocals is excellent.

I was almost tempted to buy the track if it weren't that I can listen to it here for free :-)

Yep, strong Steely Dan vibes, and that's good! Love the groove.

Cool vocals, nice arrangement.

This is a really strong track! laugh

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

Hi

Another winner.

Only minor suggestion - the lead guitar break could be louder to match or nearly the vocals volume.

Excellent music - you have put a lot of work into this song.


Best Regards

That Finger Bass is immediately captivating.

There's a real Steely Dan feel right throughout this. You must be a Donald Fagan fan wink

The production is beautifully complex. Totally professional.

This is much more New Orleans, with a dash of Boz Scagg's vocal styling, than Metal [*****].
The horns are very late 70s sounding.
Tidy mix.

Hi Block-Head,

An excellent funky song!
The vocals reminded me of KC and the Sunshine band.
You sang it very good.

But you made me curious: "The Music and Melody were written by someone from PG Music... "
Do these guys from PG music also make songs?
And can we all ask their assistance?
For free of course, I'm Dutch.

So, loved the song very much!
Hans

bloc-head,

Awesome Music.

Great BAND. Excellent mix - a lot of Punch to it.

Excellent vocals.

And a solid write. Top-lining is a talent - not everyone can do that - super job here.

GREAT sound all around. (I got the Boz vibe that ray mentioned...)

Loved it.
