I wrote this earlier this week as a bit of fun (just got a boogie in my head and went to Cheese Town on it). It's inspiration is most definitely 70s and yes, one song in particular springs to mind (and if you DON'T know which song that is, it involved a certain pre-Phantom "opera" singer...).
I've only just added the electronic lyrics as, originally, I didn't intend to have them. That part just came to me now whilst I was tidying up my desktop to collect all my new stuff together in the correct place. Some of the parts are meant to overlap a little.
As I intimated, it's very cheesy but fun. Hpe it brightens up your day.
Groove Control signing off... :P
GROOVE CONTROL
Groove Control
I got the music in my
Heart and soul
I'm in the mood to try
To let it go
Cos now I know
I cannot stop
Picked up a beat
In the back of my head
Foot started tappin'
It was like the man said
You cannot help it
You are wired to the pulse
No use pretendin'
You can choose how it goes
Groove Control
It's like a fever raging
In your soul
The world is shakin'
Ebbin' to and fro
I guess I know
I cannot stop
Makin' a move
This is no time for shy
Gettin' into the groove
Headin' into the light
Make it or fake it
It's the same in the end
No use in waitin'
So I might as well dance
Groove Control
You got me feelin' like I've
Lost control
My head is reelin' and I
Just don't know
Abandon hope
All ye who
Lose your soul
Surrender your heart to the
Groove Control
It takes you so far; you can't
Save your soul
Go with the flow
