Ok, if anyone laughs at this, my mission will be accomplished.

I had a riot doing it. I play a lot of stuff on my own here, but with real tracks I threw in everything but the kitchen sink. Then I turned it up. And yes, it may be almost as long as Freebird.

LET’S GET HOMELY

By David Snyder

https://soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs3/lets-get-homely

V1

Sometimes you're waiting
when you just can't wait
And you need to get it on
before it gets too late

CH

And we're gonna get homely
with our one and only
we're gonna get it on
all night long
yeah
we're gonna get homely
no need to be all lonely
we you can get it on
get it on at home
that's why we're being homely
oh yeah being homely at home
do it all night long
keep it going strong
and when you just can't wait no more
you might get homely on the floor

V2

All day you've been dreaming
Just to get behind
All day you've been dreaming
In a homely state of mind
Just to get behind
Just to get behind

CH

And we're gonna get homely
with our one and only
we're gonna get it on
all night long
yeah
we're gonna get homely
no need to be all lonely
we you can get it on
get it on at home
that's why we're being homely
oh yeah being homely at home
do it all night long
keep it going strong
and when you just can't wait no more
you might get homely on the floor

Wow.... I heard this yesterday and figured I'd come back again and have a listen again.


Nice production quality.

Musically, it sounds like some of the chords are off from the vocal path and in places out of agreement with itself.

But nothing beats a little bit of carefree self-indulgence every now and then.

What the heck happened at 4:25? Sounded like T-Pain tried to sneak on stage there for about 5 seconds. Thankfully stage security tackled him before he could wreck much Autotune havoc.

*****************redacted****************...... But it was a fun ride.

Edit: Oh wait... you said this was for fun and if people laughed it was "mission accomplished"..... So in that case.....It wasn't exactly what I'd call a laugh.... more like a cringe with a giggle..... then it dawned on me.....

Andy Warhol meets Yoko Ono in a car crash with reversed audio while bystanders toss primary colored paint and applaud the mayhem. Yeah... that was my initial reaction. My second listen and reaction was very similar minus the primary colored paint.... it was more like chartreuse red and pastel blue, perhaps even mauve. Interesting none the less and yep... good production chops on it.

One thing's for certain.... you ain't skert!

ROTFLMAO!

This could have been done if Yoko Ono and Joe Cocker had a son singing with Zappa's backup band!

Two thumbs up

Like being at a Dead concert (and the Staple Singers joined them onstage).
Very much a live-concert sound - well mixed.

Lighters lit. (doobies, too). Arms waving, bodies swaying...

Man you really made this have a live feel with the ambient crowd noise at the start! I was getting a kick out of that first minute of introductions! Hey, this tune sounds SUPER! I wish I had the creative imagination that you've got! The crowd in attendance got their money's worth that night I'm sure laugh

Thanks, Torrey

Well Herb,

Ain't you persnickety!

There are a lot of "spots" in this song I decided not to touch because I was going for the live feel. For example, on two occasions you can hear what appear to be drum sticks. I left them in. Same for that vocal feedback. I went back and listened and I doubt I will touch it. I think it is funny. The vocalist is yelling so loud he overloads the system for a sec. It's live dude!

When I decide to do a Bach chamber piece I will let you know my friend.

Until then:

Let the freebird fly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was/is fun. I like the movement of the progression.
I missed the uber reality of two people talking, just behind me, about how they love this song all the way through this song and missing this song as a consequence.
In part it sounded like those moments when the stage was overflowing on The Last Waltz.
Justine Hawkins, when asked to comment on some old rockers who weren't note perfect in their 60s n 70s, said words to the effect that a live show needs imperfect moments to prove it's real, to highlight the perfect moments and to make the fan just a little more aware that it's people doing things.

Wow, what a live mood, nice message needs homely stadium jamming feel. Fun song going beyond expectation once again.
Powerful vocals & the gospel choir sounds amazing. The solo guitarist sounds like Prince reborn. The mix is lush and spacious!

Hahaha. Seriously, David. This is crazy good in just the way you intended. There's some excellent playing in there. Can you hear it? Only Hey, Jude is longer. Our nearest neighbor is almost a mile away. I knew the song was a hit when I got a knock on the door. When I answered, my neighbor asked, "Don't you have headphones?" Ah, I'm just kidding, David. Are neighbors are a little closer.

Seriously though, I love what you do and the carefree way in which you do it.


Enjoy whatever happens!

David,
Looks like you had a blast with this little jam. Lots of sound, but everything seems to work well together. Not as crazy as some of your tunes, but has a lot of raw energy. Fun listen. Thank you for sharing.

David,

Well now, that’s a creative production, inventive, and must have been a ton of fun to put together. The gospel BGV’s are just killer out of the gate. Definitely has a cool live feel to it . . . ingenious production. Well done!

All my best,

Deej
