This is a song just finished.
I wrote it for an open-mic 'come up with a seasonal song' challenge.
It hit my 2 min 45 sec target.

I offer it up for a roasting

I'm a newbie to the forum - thanks for letting me in.

hahaha funny clip i like how u made the effort to go find those images! But I don't understand  why all the instruments are so quiet? The lyrics are pretty cool but!

[nrand]

Clever idea and funny too!
Thanks for sharing

Hi Mickeytwonames!

I need a new name.... could I have one of yours? 

Very pleased to have you here in the forum; you are very welcome.

Please could you post up your lyrics?

I really like your vocal performance - it's got great personality and sounds like you're having a ball. I agree the instruments are little too quite in the mix. But I like what's they're doing. Love the ending... "time for your medication" haha..... GSOH!!

Glad to have you here. I hope you enjoy it!

I really like this Mickey great vocals to it really suit the song and great video.

I think i know why you didn't post the lyrics, you forgot your medication

Nice.  Love the sentiment and delivery. You just need the bad seeds to do a backing track and you'll be there! Enjoyed it. Thanks. Adam

Thanks for the comments - your right about the backing track - it's trouble with doing your own mixing - I've brought it up in a new mix and song intro sounds much better. I'll post up the lyrics next time - didn't have them with me at the time.
