I’m waxing nostalgic with a new song Summer’s Over. http://soundcloud.com/austin51/
summers-over


Paying homage to the one of my favorite bands the Beach Boys but the irony being it is about middle-aged angst.

Used BIAB with RealTracks and Cakewalk Home Studio.

RealTracks include:

Drums: Nashville Even 8
Drums: Nashville Pop Balled (used for 8 bars right before the last chorus)
Bass: #683 Electric Pop Half Notes Push
Acoustic Guitar: #405 Strumming
Electric Guitar: #1850 Pop Shining Gritty Muted
Electric Guitar: #1524 Pop Power Push Clean
Organ: B3 Background Blues (used for 8 bars right before the last chorus)
Accordion: Rhythm Pop 8ths (used for 8 bars right before the last chorus)
Special thanks to the Hawthorne California Marching Choir


Summer’s Over

When did life get so hard
With all its complications
What happened to the blvd
Where are the good vibrations

Who took away the carefree summer days
They came and went like ocean waves
Chorus:
Summer’s over (Seasons turning)
Life goes on (Daylight’s burning)
I’m getting older (Years replaying)
Like a familiar song (Don’t worry baby)
Looking back over my shoulder
Summer’s over

Take a drive in the sun
Feel the wind softly blowing
No going back where we came from
God only knows where we’re going

I don’t deny when I think of days gone by
It’s easy to romanticize
Chorus:
Summer’s over (Seasons turning)
Life goes on (Daylight’s burning)
I’m getting older (Years replaying)
Like a familiar song (Don’t worry baby)
Looking back over my shoulder
Summer’s over

Summer’s Over
Don’t Worry Baby
Summer’s Over
Don’t Worry Baby
Summer’s over
