"MAMA GONNA WHOOP YOU" - Track of the Week

A friend mentioned something to me his mom used to say, "Mama gonna whoop you"  So, used the title and went from there.  I knew this Blues/Rock song had to be fun with a title like that.
All vocals and instruments performed by me.  Recorded and mixed with Logic Pro on a MacBookPro. (That's a "laptop", for the non-techies) ;)

***** LYRICS *****

MAMA GONNA WHOOP YOU

Sneakin' out back
Kickin' at the cat
Boy you better watch she don't run off
Jumpin' that fence
Ain't makin' no sense
You know what gonna happen when you get caught?

 Mama gonna whoop you
 You better watch out
 For cryin' out loud
 Mama gonna whoop you

 Mama gonna whoop you
 Better you quit
 Here's a little tip, now
 Fear the boom boom
 Mama gonna whoop you

Comin' in late
Makin' that face
Hoping those puppy eyes save your neck
She ain't no fool
It's the dog house for you
You're gonna get a lickin' that you won't forget

BRIDGE

You act so tough
But it's scary stuff
When she's winding up

"MAMA GONNA WHOOP YOU" - Track of the Week

"WINDOW SEAT" - Track of the Week

Written to resemble the style of a Burt Bacharach/Hal David song.  All tracks (except guitars) played on my now since replaced Korg Triton Keyboard. All vocals/instruments recorded and mixed on a Korg D1600MKII 16-Track digital recorder.  Originally had a female singer in mind to sing this.  (Check out my other Bacharach/David song, "Yes, Love")

"Window Seat" is the title track to my album "Window Seat" (What's that title again!!....) 

**** Lyrics ****

Hey mister in the clean white shirt
Can you help me with my bags?
They're the ones with the tear-stained leather tags

I know I'm way too early, but I'd like to know
Is my flight gonna be on time?
Looks like my tears have all been cried         

     I'd like to get myself a window seat
     They're saying clear blue skies ahead
     I got a one-way ticket to a brand new life
     Gonna get back on my feet again

Was really hopin' for a window seat
Up there so high
It's not so hard to see the reason why

I tell ya, you don't wanna know
There's so much that I could say
'Bout how it feels when your love gets thrown away

I don't want your pity just a friendly smile
It means more than you could know
Just one more thing before I go

CHORUS

"WINDOW SEAT" - Track of the Week

There's Goes Sebastian.... to Italy "Parte Tre x 4"

...Part 3 x 4 = Are you getting tired of me posting these YouTube commercials by Renault Italy utilizing my infamous track "There Goes Sebastian"? Just reporting the news, folks. :) Might as well buy a Renault. I'm half Italian, you know.

There's Goes Sebastian.... to Italy "Parte Tre x 4"

There's Goes Sebastian.... to Italy "Parte Due"

...That's "Part 2"

I found two more YouTube commercials posted by Renault Italy using my track, "There Goes Sebastian"!  (I shared the first two videos HERE)

Though we've always been a Toyota family I may have to check out a Renault during our next car shopping experience - maybe get an "employee" discount? ;)

There's Goes Sebastian.... to Italy "Parte Due"

There's Goes Sebastian.... to Italy!

Was jazzed today to find my instrumental track "There Goes Sebastian" in a couple of YouTube commercials for Renault Italy!  It plays in and out throughout both videos.  I have arrived! ;)

(I previous posted about this track a while back. Click HERE to revisit that post and hear the original track clocking in at 1:33, which now plays basically twice in each of these 3 min. videos)

And to add to my excitement, it was picked up for another internet (animaton) project just yesterday!  This little track is getting a lot of mileage. Have to add these with the others on the News section.



And the other...

There's Goes Sebastian.... to Italy!
