Hi Marty,
A very catchy song, it's difficult not to move when you hear it.
And yes, many words that have to be sung.
Music is great and lovely backing vocals by Janice.

Hello Marty,
That was a very nice song you made. With huuuuge lyrics!
What I like the most and it's always in your songs; that feeling of joy you express in them (unless it's a very sad song).
This one was no exception to that. It always give me a broad smile.
I have no technicall advices, I'm afraid, because everything sounded so well. I liked the harmonies. I think doing something like that myself if I have a proper song for it. Very nice effect! But then I need Janice too. That will be some challenge...
Hans

Wow,
BIG message,
Lots of words in that message.
The band is cool...yeah the guirro gets a bit loud...maybe some mid side EQ could deal with that.
Mr Bell rings out another fab one. Excellent bvox that could high light a little more.
Terrific package. Thanks for mentioning the harmony! Janice

Really clever lyrics (looking left and looking right, excellent play with opposites) and at the same time also has a nice message about the current chaotic times or at least that's how I understood it  The chaotic verses and then the balancing choruses tell the same story with instruments, excellent. I'm glad you got back to the rhythm. Enjoyed the lead and backing vocals. Dave's soloing makes me smile, so cool. The chorus is very catchy. Superb use of new BIAB features and RTs. Perfect package of fantastic musical talent. And the same ingenuity in the video, cleverly selected clips and pictures. I'm just amazed how well music, lyrics and video all support the whole. Janne

Nothing wrong with "going back to the rhythm"!
Nice collaboration.
The vocals all mesh nicely.
Well done!

Wow Marty, you surely had to work a while to get the phrasing of those vocal lines down! It's a cool track with an infectious rhythm! That bass is thumping out some notes (your fingers were surely sore after working on that....excellent btw! Daves guitar is sizzling in here...it's a slightly different sounding tone than I remember from him but works very well with this track! And last of all, you can't go wrong with Janice helping with the bg vox! Enjoyed it! Thanks, Torrey Thank you Torrey! Marty is so easy to work with. Janice

Wow, reminds me of 60s rock & roll. Lots of lyrics, but well put together, Love the lead guitar and harmonies!!
Thanks for listening and commenting, Ronnie. Yeah, those tongue-twisting words at 135BPM takes this out of the sing-along category. Marty & team
First off a really catchy chorus excellent.
Nice playing by you and Dave, bass sounded great as did Dave's solo.
Vocals were very well done and Janice and you sound excellent together on the chorus.
A very nice team effort that I enjoyed all the way through.
Peter Hello, Peter, and thanks so much for your encouraging comment. Hi, Marty. Fun song - upbeat, well done, and amusing lyrics. And, of course, nice performances by all. Thanks, David. Really glad you like it. Marty...wow! what a trip...loved the song, the vocals and harmonies, Dave's solo...as usual it was a tight band mix with a great bottom and I think I especially enjoyed the video...great stuff. Thanks, Dan. And thanks for mentioning the video. Those "dancin' droids" (as Bud called them) really steal the show.

Excellent tune. Interesting new features on BIAB 2022. Loved the vocal and harmonies. BPM 135 my poor old hands could not handle that tempo. Loved the guitar and bass lines. Nice to see you four get together for a collaboration. Well done Hi Marty
Interesting and cool song
Has a great sound
Your vocals fit very nicely and I think it's somehow even cooler when you watch the video for it. Really well done
The lyrics are very original but your text has also brought my translator a little out of rhythm ;-))))
Dave has recorded a great solo
Janice makes the refrain only perfect - Super
You are already a top team
I liked it very very much
Thanks a lot
One question: Did you animate the dancing 3D figures in the video ?
That looks absolutely great, Marty
Many greetings
Andi ,-) Wow, reminds me of 60s rock & roll. Lots of lyrics, but well put together, Love the lead guitar and harmonies!!
Thanks guys for mentioning my little contribution! Janice

Cool song Marty and to quote FJ heck of a job getting all those words in. Good Collab. Upbeat fun and I enjoyed it very much.
Josie Hey, Josie. Thanks. Yeah, there were definitely some tongue-twisters in there. Love your YT channel. Isn't it cool how they work the copyright issue and allow us to upload covers? Another great use of BiaB. Fantastic! I always go with video when given the option and this video was superb. The song is outstanding. Great job to all. The lyrics were so well written. There is some good philosophy in them too. Clever word play, as in:
I look to my left and see that nothing's right. Then I look to my right and see there's nothing left.
This is a wonderful song. And the BIAB Wrecking Crew hit their marks too. Thanks, jptjptjpt. I really worked and reworked those lyrics. Thanks for noticing and commenting. this is a very fun cute song.
that chord break at 1m37secs is superb.
only thing i might suggest is maybe slowing the tempo a tad to give the lead vocs more space for the enunciation.
but thats just moi.
the chorus is "very hooky" <<<EXCELLENT.
loved the chorus ending repeats. classic.
great effort.
best/happiness
om Thanks, om! Yeah, I personally would've liked it a bit slower so i could get all the words out, but I wanted to illustrate chaos. It's at 135BPM, but it started at 150. Haha. That was crazy. Marty, Dave, Janice
Such a fun and unusual tune! Chaotically delicious. Fantastic vocals and phrasing! Dave, cool solo and guitar playing! Janice blends very nicely, but I wish she would be a notch louder. Extraordinary job of making all this work together. Wild. Enjoyed it much. Thank you for sharing and congrats on this wonderful music piece.
Misha.
Thanks, Misha. I really had a hard time mixing Janice because I was so thrilled to have her in the mix. Bud sent me a track that was perfect and ready to drop-and-play. At first I made it sound like Janice was the main vocal because it sounds so good. Then I overcompensated and put the harmony bus way in the back. Then after Floyd's comment, I went back in and brought it to the level it is now. Still, I'm with you.

The verse is so frenetic but then slides into graceful chorus. Very nicely contrasted. That opening video footage fits perfectly.
The forum friends make wonderful contributions with nicely blended harmony and the hot guitar solo.

Janne Hehe. Thanks, Janne. Yeah, the English language is ripe with all kinds of double meanings. You got it. It's a cry for the simpler life that doesn't rely on money, just good friends. Glad you liked the video, too. I was pretty happy I didn't have to slow down or speed up those dancing droids. Got my heart pump'n!

Well done!
