This song was written in 1981 in response to the Police "Don't Stand So Close to Me". I never recorded it till now, and the production seems to be reminiscent of the early Beatles. After some encouragement from this forum, I've been working on harmony vocals, and am pleased with the result.

God job with the aaahs in the background

Are you playing any instruments? it has a kind of "practice room" vibe to it, like you were recording in a room full of musicians during a sound check
