Just a song about having a party.
I feel like Nero playing a fiddle (he wasn't very good either). While all this sadness covers the world, I come up with a happy, goofy song. There is one thing I agreed with his playing music in the face of tragedy. It soothes the savage beast. Unfortunately the savage beast of today is resistant to harmony.

This song started with a riff sometime last summer. I wanted to play some Latin bass and chose the samba style. In BiaB I put chords to the riff, then picked up a guitar to play and sing along with it. The title soon came out as the first words. The vocal had to be done by a guy in a leisure suit with too much bling and too much cologne. Not even the synth vocals had that, so... I had to cover him up with party-goers. I was going to keep this one until the war was over, but...

Style is _SAMBA_P.STY (Samba w/ Acoustic Bass & Piano)

I added a couple guitar parts, voices, and some midi stuff. The sound fx came from freesounds.org and pixabay.com. Yes, I did the vocal, although the only bling I wear is my wedding ring with one of the diamonds missing, and I never use cologne --unless it's unscented. Of course I welcome any and all comments.

Come On Down To My House

Come On Down To My House. Everyone's gonna be there.
Come On Down and bring your spouse. We'll have a party. Just bring your share.
We'll sing and dance all through the night, and celebrate the rising Sun.
Raise our hands through cool moon light. So come on. We'll have some fun.

Come on down to my house, and show us how you can party.
Come on down. We'll get you soused, and get you back laughin' hardy.
Invite your friends. Come one; come all. Stay the night, and we'll greet the day.
Life is short so let's have a ball. Say you'll come and you're on your way.

Come On Down To My House. Everyone's gonna be there.
Come On Down and bring your spouse. We'll have a party. Just bring your share.
Invite your friends. Come one; come all. Celebrate the rising Sun.
Life is short so let's have a ball. So come on. We'll have some fun.


Enjoy whatever happens!
