close to a match, before striking . pure art... I mean just listen...art like it is supposed to sound

Very nice, fun, uplifting song! "Life's not a sprint it is a marathon" - so great!! :)) Congratulations to all participants! Well done! :)

ha-ha...smiled so much throughout this...was it the lyrics? (yup) was it the vocal delivery? (yup), was it the musical arrangement and keys? (yup) what about the production that made all the details accessible to the listener? (yup)...what about throwing in a superb trumpet performance ? (yup). That's a lot of yupping. Really loved the quirkiness of this! Thanks for the smiles from the woods of N.E...(A: St.Paul)..fabulously playful :)

Beautiful playful vocals over a really nice musical arrangement. Good job Jeff.

such a cool tune - You should base a musical around this piece!!!

Lyrics:
He said, 
“I’m losing my mind here for heaven’s sake:
this boredom so real and this smile so fake.
Will I be a husband and you be a wife,
Living the remnants of what we called life?”

So I said, 
“Let’s go up to rooftop Andy.
An elevator ride, well it would be dandy.
Where’s the tallest building here in Minnesota?
Let’s get there fast, ‘cause we’re getting older.
Let’s run down to the river bank Andy.
Fill a picnic basket up with wine and candy.
‘ Don’t wanna get old. How about you?
I’ll go anywhere with you…oh,oh.

He said, 
“Look back on our life we just stayed home with kids.
All that we missed versus all that we did?
Two people here fit like a hand in a glove.
Were we just roommates or were we in love?”

So I said, 
“Let’s go up to rooftop Andy.
An elevator ride, well it would be dandy.
Where’s the tallest building here in Minnesota?
Let’s get there fast, ‘cause we’re getting older.
Let’s run down to the river bank Andy.
Fill a picnic basket up with wine and candy.
‘ Don’t wanna get old. How about you?
I’ll go anywhere with you…oh,oh.

He said,
“When I get older I wanna be
The perfect man, you’ll be so proud of me.”
I said, “Life’s not a sprint it’s a marathon.
We got time so let’s have some fun.
Oh let’s have some fu…u…un!”

So I said, 
“Let’s go up to rooftop Andy.
An elevator ride, well it would be dandy.
Where’s the tallest building here in Minnesota?
Let’s get there fast, ‘cause we’re getting older.
Let’s run down to the river bank Andy.
Fill a picnic basket up with wine and candy.
‘ Don’t wanna get old. How about you?
I’ll go anywhere with you…oh,oh.

“Let’s go up to rooftop Andy.
An elevator ride, well it would be dandy.
‘ Don’t wanna get old. How about you?
-----
“Let’s go up to rooftop Andy.
An elevator ride, well it would be dandy.
Let’s get there fast, ‘cause we’re getting older.
Quick, what’s the capital of Minnesota?

Bills note: You ever meet those couples that stay together just for the kids? We've had some friends go down that road.
Did you ever hit 30, 35, 40, 45 years old ,etc.. and ask yourself what is the point in all this? What am I doing with my life? Yeah, maybe...
Are you the positive or the negative person in the relationship? A guy who sees it in the negative and a girl who says, "don't give up yet." 

If you actually read this far then God bless you! You are very important to us! 

Here we are a family living out in the woods of New England and people all around the world take some time to listen to our music. Some people actually like it. How cool is that?

Rooftop - ft. Guy Myette trumpet, mastered by Tainted Icarus

Mother, Father & Son musical trio from CT, USA

Bill ( Dad) - Keyboards, songwriting, arranging, recording, production

It's 2023 and we're still blocking and reporting the indie-spammer rockstar wannabe messengers so we can actually have meaningful connections with good and honest people. If you want to DM us something about how we should buy your stuff, subscribe to your channel or follow you .... DON"T!
DM us for friendly & real conversation only. Our songs are not up for review. If you want to DM us some production advice, mix critique or regurgitate some crap about but bass frequencies or something you learned on YouTube once ... DON'T! 
Thanks! Friends can always send us new songs just no spam messages, please. We are real people. Please be real people too.

We are a mother, father and son trio - see us performing live here:

*****We do not autotune Melissa's voice!*****
November Sound features powerful lead vocals with creative drum and keyboard driven musical arrangements. We try to create alternative music with intricate rhythms and a modern sophisticated sound. Thank you for listening! 

Melissa (Mom) - Lead vocals
Bill ( Dad) - Keyboards, songwriting, arranging, recording, production
Will (Son) - Drums, percussion, electronic drums, arranging

We create and perform all of the sounds that you hear. We rarely ever use any loops or tracks....we also do live performances of our music whenever we can! ( of course, not quite as full sounding without the multi-track recording)
***
We seem to get a number of new followers each week and sometimes it is hard to know who is real or not. If you are our friend from Songwriters in the Kitchen, YouTube, Facebook or Twitter please send us a DM and let us know so we can follow you back.
Friends (emphasis on FRIENDS not spammers) feel free to DM when you have a track out!
Also ---
We have been getting a lot of unsolicited offers from people who want to mix or master our music. Though we are thankful that you consider us worthy we are choosing not to respond to these messages.
We all read blogs and watch the videos where a fancy man in a designer T-Shirt says to find a band that you like and offer to mix their music for free to build up your portfolio. Eventually you'll be able to make a living, working at home, doing what you love. That sure sounds great! Hey, if you believe that we are that good and you want to mix our music then we are very flattered and thankful for your support. However, we don't want a transaction like that to take away from our friendship with you and we also just like to take time to create our own music.... that's part of the fun for us. We don't really have plans to be famous or make money with music. We are merely a small family living out in the woods, in a small town, in a small state in a small region that is called New England, USA. .....that's all.
