It was her who called it in. So that's when I got my first sense o' Mia.”

We can see her smiling so clearly from the above and we think you should write short stories. 😊

This is another fun song, Marty, and your vocal delivers the wry humor well.

Great band along with your fine performances and mix.

And, per always, cool supporting imagery in the vid.

Fun!

Thanks, Janice & Bud. I wasn't sure the lyrics could give the visual sense, but CoPilot in all its wonkiness REALLY helped. Some say I should stick to the "Yeah, yeah, yeah"s when writting songs, and save the real stories for books that no one will read. Seems like I don't have as much control over the process.

Thanks, Elliott. The sirens are intended to freak someone out if they're listening to this one in a car. hehe

Thanks, Scott. I remember thinking the red-eye flights were the party planes. hehe


Enjoy whatever happens!

Where do you find all these strange stories (and ladies)? Funny and bouncy boogie rock where the piano and the bass drive the BabuMusic highway in perfect harmony. Great work to make the rich and clever lines flow so nicely with the melody. The story and the video go perfectly handcuffed together. And the vocals are so expressive, you were born to be an entertainer smile Another killer track for your album.

What a cool song that immediately lifts my mood and makes me smile.

LOVE your storytelling, even if not everything makes 100% sense to me.
Could be a language thing, though.
Enjoyed the listen.
A lot!

Marty,

Your fun videos, as always, make me happy.
The song is a country shuffle, and very pop.
Your vocals and bass add to that and the Marty sound is complete.
Enjoyed my listen and watch a lot.

Best regards.

Thanks, Janne. All those stories and charachters are just roaming around in our 6th sense --Imagination. Which comes first, melody or lyrics? Hmm. I learned all of that vocal expression thing from our 9-year-old granddaughter. I want to grow up to be just like her.

Thanks, Brain. I'll give a lot of credit for your mood lift to your getting home after a terrific French vacation, but I'm happy to be a catalyst. Looking forward to you posting your new one, of which I just got a sneak preview.

Thanks, James. Recently I started using CoPilot AI after Dave Bell brought them to our attention.
