but it's the best I can
do
If I can't have
what I want... then

The most ambitious tune; about a singer that starts out in the late sixties and ends up in the oldies-circuit doing his last big hit from 1982 three times a night.The vocal is a bit low in the mix. I might upload a special mp3-mix for Alonetone…

I started this one at the end of januari in preperation for RPM. I added lyrics and vocals in february. So it's kind of a bonustrack. Just another throwaway popsong with the awesome stylophone in full effect.
