Peter & Leon, "A robot took my job but that’s alright I don’t think that he did it out of spite It’s just that he was smarter and damn, that thing is quick Never takes a lunch break and he never calls in sick"
Now that is funny! Love the title, write, and all the good production stuff...sweet solo to close out. You guys have a great way of putting smiles into a song.
Robert Thanks Robert appreciate the review. Peter

Well, I certainly was not disappointed!
This has been a common worry for a lot of laborers with everything becoming automated. Technology is advancing so fast these days. When I think about the technology from when I was a kid and compare it to now ... it blows away!
What a fun song. Thanks for sharing! Thanks Ember - I remember when automatic doors were only on Star Trek. Peter

Hello, Peter & Leon
Yes, fun and funny! Guitar solo also has a comical mood. You guys are a really good combination. I felt more funny than satire first. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Thanks Shigeki appreciate the review. Peter

Nice work on this one - I got a good chuckle from this one Sometimes a fun, light-hearted tune is just what you need. All else aside, the groove is awesome and your vocal performance is right on the money. Great job and thanks for sharing! Thanks Deryk. Peter

Hi Peter & Leon.
This is just SO much fun that it's easy to overlook exactly how well it's put together. The overwhelming impression is one of humour and good-time music, but delving deeper into it there's a lot going on.
So firstly, yes I really enjoyed this one. Secondly, I'm well impressed by the sheer professionalism of the writing, performances, production and mix.
Excellent.
ROG. Really appreciate those comments Rog. Peter

unexpected but super!
driving rockabilly rock, love it
good message for millennials who want $16.50 an hour
to take fries with that orders
I see Kiosks and robots waiting on us, taking our orders
while most camp out on sidewalks reminiscing about plastic straws,
A robot took my job but that’s alright I don’t think that he did it out of spite It’s just that he was smarter and damn, that thing is quick Never takes a lunch break and he never calls in sick
Enjoyed the listen!

"One door shuts, another one will open I read that on my feed the other day That algorithm reads me like a book Shows me stuff that otherwise I might’ve overlooked"
hahahaha...yep, those algorithms are getting scary.
Whimsy done in style!
And, man, do we ever love a rockabilly band.
Great write and vocals and hey, Peter, are there any styles that you DON'T excel in on guitar?
And capping it all off is a fine production!
One to enjoy over and over....
J&B
Thanks J&B - thanks for all the encouraging comments. Peter

Really creative idea, well executed. Fun and enjoyable...made me listen throughout to catch all the lyric “jokes”.
Noticed that you trimmed a few words out of the written lyric on the first verse...not sure if that represents an edit you made in the vocal recording, but the fewer words work better. Could do the same in a couple of other spot to make it flow a bit more smoothly in wordy passages.
What’s the reference to Vinnie’s..didn’t get that one.
I was waiting for some kind of robotic sound reference...got it just before the solo!!
Thanks for making me laugh!!
Vinnies = St Vincent De Paul's charity shops in Australia. We tend to shorten everything. Thanks for the nice review. Peter

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
