bonnieprincejohnny said 266 days ago
Thank u Feter
I'm so glad U got the groove. U R KOOL.

lengold said 266 days ago
This is a
remix isn't it Johnny Boy? I'm sure I know it. Also just noticed the word Logic above - this sounds great the production is certainly a notch up. Definitely remember it now with the abrupt ending. Superbly catchy.
Just started with Logic myself too - great fun.
Cheers
Lenners





bonnieprincejohnny said 264 days ago
Aye Lenny -
remix it is. This track got put up in another form by my former associates GJ (UK) on the Garageband web site. On there they have the choon randomly reviewed, typically you'll get folk who wouldn't know a good song if it walked up to them and kicked them up the arse to folk seem fairly clued in to what is admittedly a fairly subjective process. Anyway the general tone was positive but a couple of reviewers mentioned that the drums weren't hitting the spot for them... as it were, so - I fucked about with the drums (this is a technical term for locate a good drum loop and stick it in the mix) and Heyfuckingpresto - now when I listen back instead of thinking 'I like this but I'm missing a vibe somewhere' I'm fairly happy with this (except for the end) for reasons that will become apparent further down the page. I really liked your last song Izzykul you've got a unique vibe going on Lenners and you are and probably always will be my favourite giant stone head.

paddler said 266 days ago
Feel good
Love the chords prgressions and the fuck it all

gave it all 10's.Wanna buy your album

Cheers - RG

bonnieprincejohnny said 259 days ago
I think it's in the key of B
I vaguely remember using a capo and there's a change from B to Bm7 that I really dig. Many thanks Richard, I read your blog here on MJ and it's a triffic tale, I often think of you up there in ye ancient Lake District making fab choons.

aclarke said 266 days ago
I really tried
to not like this song. Friggin' impossible. It's a damn good song- I freakin' love it! Downloaded.

bonnieprincejohnny said 258 days ago
Thanks Mr Clarke
It's a pleasure to see you make an appearance and I'm glad you liked this wee song.

said 266 days ago
the way
i like, good changes!

said 266 days ago
Great rehash
This is the true version I think, outstanding Mr.C!

jiguma said 266 days ago
That riff ..
.. is so Beatley - and there are hints of Thunderclap Newman, but it's all BPJ!

Great production and playing and singing and stuff! So tight.

Love your work!

Neil

Vic Holman said 266 days ago
great tune!
great production and tightly played out. i reckon this is what makes a great summer tune.

J.A.Stewart said 266 days ago
Happy Daze
Very cool, Johnny. Uniquely musical and entertaining.

Tripping the light fantastic with this one... breezin' and groovin'.

A pleasant trip, for sure. ;)

this
as an incredible good time bouncy feeling with wiz ding dozy dose of sweet pop singin.

I know my imagination went a bit wild with this terrific song, but I thought I heard the word elephant and for strange reasons my minds started thinking of this wonderful elephant swingin his nose and havin a good ole time. When mj musicians do good songs my mind has a tendency to pick up on cool things like that.

Some very strange good things are a happening in my mind when listening to this very unusually special tune! And I do mean strange in a very good and happy way!

Wowzer !

lavalamp said 265 days ago
What's up?
Dig it. Where's the lyrics?

Brian Wilson all the way.

Great stuff.

Skean said 265 days ago
You're the man
Hi boss I really dig this. One of your best I think.

Cheers from a cold beer

IT!
This really is top notch! Kind of a Lazlo Bane feel but with even better guitar riffs. More hooks than a tackle box!

Except the title, I do not understand much words but it does not matter, I listen to repeatedly with big pleasure. Good music, you made a very original creation and a great production on all levels, thanks for this...

Bouncing Red Rubber Balls
Really great track. Love the offhanded fun. The end cuts off in an annoying manner. Consider a fade out or something?

timothy devine said 265 days ago
Hey man
this is a great overall sound.
The Production is stupendous. Everything in the mix is just perfect.
The vocal delivery has so much character.
Well conceived tune top to bottom.
Radio ready
instant replay(abc am radio '60s)They would spin the single a second time in a row, thats what I'm doing with 'having a good day for... it' right now
great tune

woot wooooot
A very nice song. Very British, but still very authentic. I think people will link it to the Beatles, vibe wise. And the percussion and the lyrics are certainly up to that quality level. A very clear production, and I concur with Len, better sound quality than I expected. Very, very good.

chipan said 264 days ago
Nice groove
I enjoyed this. I like the lyric about the house burning down. Funny stuff! You have a nice original sound.

massa said 264 days ago

This is makin my day !

Youra said 262 days ago
This is great !
Catchy from the first note. I dig the effortless and quite lazy voice. Very original arrangement. One of the great pop songs of the site, for sure. Faved and _loaded.
Cheers !

ILoveVariousArtists said 262 days ago
Instant coffee!
the water wasn't even boiling and i was already up and boppin. Hooked from bar one. Pushes and pulls nicely. And great arrangement and lyrics mate. Pop monster heaven. Played it 3 times, louder and louder and it gets better better & better. Thank you!

guitapick said 261 days ago
Nice ride...

...that's a nice combination...

...cool harmonies...guitar lines...builds....sweet stuff...

damiengh said 260 days ago
still consider
I still consider this, one of your best, and now new and improved!

The clarity and fullness of sound is more evident in this version, well worth the it's rework.

Lots of nice flavors musically and visuals lyrically.
