Someone here compared something of mine to the Cars, that had never occurred to me. This song definitely has Cars influence, it just seemed appropriate both in the synth track and the vocal. This was originally written for a friend who had a rockabilly band, as a funny, kickass live number. I think it translates well with a Cars/ZZ Top feel. The BIB tracks are augmented with a slide guitar from RB and synth overdub. Is there a Song Memo file in RealBand?

TEMPERATURE

Mmmmm when you touch me, it means so much to me
I feel the heat start to rise, rise
Words I want to hear, burning in my ear
there's a flame inside, and I realize

Now you get me started, made my motor run
and you tell me that you've just begun

It's so intoxicating, I'm hyperventilating
check my temperature, check my temperature

Steaming like a radiator, I need a respirator
check my temperature, check my temperature

Now you hold me, and enfold me
I start to glow like a spark from a fire
No one around, to hear a sound
Hold me tight and the flame grows higher

She's a dynamo, a human wonder
When she makes love to me,the sound of thunder
: .
I should be cool to Her, I'm such a fool for her
check my temperature, check my temperature
feeling hotter now , thought I'd forgotten how
check my temperature, check my temperature

How she steals me, has a feel for me
No one Should know, I don't let it show
I try to hide, she glows inside
burning deep, won't let me sleep

I never thought that I would be taken
Now I hope I don't awaken

The things she said still in my head
check my temperature, check my temperature
You think she's hot, you hit the spot
check my temperature, check my temperature

Broke down the door, got me on the floor
check my temperature, check my temperature
If I don't get some slack, have a heart attack
check my temperature, check my temperature

I'm thinking cars where the lyrics are concerned, but the slide guitar screams Jackson Browne's RUNNING ON EMPTY

But after mixing familiar sounds together, You definitely have your own sound! Keep 'em coming!
