some people get by with a little understanding, some people get by with a whole lot more..
think back to when Jim Steinman started writing songs for Meatloaf and how he'd go on to be one of the best producers in the business (creating this classic with TSOM) and how the world seemed less complicated and more focussed on serious issues as opposed to Tik Tok or Instagram and if we don't think we've lost something we're crazy...but if we think it's coming back anytime soon then we are complete fools. Michael Keaton in a scene from 'Birdman' is here due to his brilliant acting abilities as well as the late great John Belushi...dig Mike & John, supreme talents for sure!
can you still recall in the juke box hall when the music played
and the world spun round to a brand new sound in those far off days..
in their blue suede shoes they would scream and shout
as they sang the blues, let it all hang out..
rock and roll...

A perfect 70's pop song! Reminds me a lot of T Rex and the glam period when they were not afraid to come up with great hooks & catchy music. I had the honour of being in the same chart as Steve Harley from Cockney Rebel when the Vitaminic music site was still going - by the time I was making music he was doing solo albums. Those guys certainly made some memorable music & you have come up with a song that equals their skills.

I was more of a Rock guy in that period but loved some of the pop songs too . A time when the chart songs were great ! I sound like my old dad ! ( god rest his soul) when I played Hendrix and rock stuff he would say “ what’s that racket ? !” lol
This track celebrates that era fantastically . Great instrumentation and performance. Nice one guys !

Well you have gone all out here Greg. Definitely hit the mark with this cracking gem of a pop tune. Really moves along nicely and has one bopping along. Super good!
Really nice retro pop song! It has that happy-go-lucky feeling that lifts your spirit and a beat that seems to be a pounding heartbeat, that goes on forever. Really cool stuff!
