Behind The Wheel

Baby Just (Turn Me On)

A composition that follows the morning routine of a teenager from wake up to arrival at school.

Morning Routine

Inconceivable

Pop Idea #249?

This song was inspired by a discussion with some moms I had years ago at school drop-off. There was obviously some frustration and regret that boiled over in our discussions.

I've had this brewing in my head / unfinished projects bin and finished it off for the VQPP. In my isolation, I also decided to explore video editing and taught myself a bit of Davinci Resolve (lots of YouTube videos) to cobble this together.

Lyrics:

VERSE 1
She. She wakes at an early hour,
To primp and preen after a hot shower.
And drives the kids to school and daycare
Where yummy mommies all smile and compare.

CHORUS
Well it's a shiny new day with the same old song
Everything's right! Nothings wrong.
Get into the mold so you'll belong
You're living the dream so you gotta be ... strong.

{Living the Dream}

VERSE 2
Well she goes to the gym - does same old workout
In the the Lulu outfits that everyone's got.
Worry-free with a drink in the hottub,
Nanny will get the kids from school and clubs.

CHORUS
Well it's a shiny new day with the same old song,
Everything's Right! Nothing's wrong.
Get into the mold so you'll belong,
You're living the dream, so you gotta be ... strong.

BRIDGE
She sheds a tear in a glass of white wine
They all say her life is sublime
With dream imposed and she's doing hard time
Conforming was her only crime - In a race with no finish line.

CHORUS
Well it's a shiny new day with the same old song.
Everything's right! Nothing's wrong.
Get into the mold so you'll belong.
You're living the dream so you gotta be ... strong
You're living the dream so you gotta be ...

The Dream

A big thank you to Lewitt Audio and AVEC for sharing the multitracks to "Home". It's a wonderful song from a wonderful album AVEC. The tracks were fantastic sounding however, I took the line from the guidelines ("Feel free to use the files however you feel like - there are no limits to your creativity!") to heart and took the song down another path.

I had a lot of fun with studio science experiments, but now have to get back to work! Thank you again!
