Description Doadars Uncle originally did this tune called This City - www.macjams.com/song/41793. Rabbitwhole then had a "tinker" on it for a HUGE HUGE Project which is coming up shortly (keep yer ears and eyes peeled folks - it's gonna be BIG .... it's gonna be MR. BIG) .... then I was asked to do a "little" tinker on it for the project ... which I did ... and then the sickness took hold and I had to have a "bigger" tinker .... part of me feels like a bit of a "thief" for "stealing" this number before it's release as part of the BIG project ... but it is with the blessing of both Doadar's Uncle and Rabbitwhole that I post it now. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have!
Lyrics This city's gonna break
The pressure is too great
We sit around and calculate our fate
This city's gonna break

Let's rise above the Crowd
We'll turn our minds around
Open your eyes, we'll show them what we found
Let's rise beyond the Crowd

I thought I knew them, I only watched them in my dreams
And had I got to know them, I wouldn't be here, so it seems

The city's comin' down
Now it's too late to run
We brace ourselves to get our work day done
We call it "Freedom Town"

i love u .... this is too good!

Alannah said 129 days ago
no no ....
.... I loved the original and then it was your tinker which gave it the "steamy citified" feel which made me wanna hop all over it!

LunaTrick said 130 days ago
Cool tune!
Reminds me of Big Star - which was an underrated band that influenced a lot of people. I'd like to hear more bass - but the the guitar and vocals are great!

Alannah said 129 days ago
Thanks Luna ....
... the "bass" is the department of the musicians ... I am but a mere vocal "tinkerer" .. glad you liked the tune tho.

Char said 130 days ago
Alannah, WOW!
WOW! You can get anything you want. The guys are "like butter." Great, girl. Thanks to Doadar's Uncle and Davisamerica for giving in.

Alannah said 129 days ago

a steam forms
it is slow. it sounds of a big city. the music drips with heat of night. the alannah voice also drips with desire. it makes a very enticing music journey. where does it go? this is a part of a longer project? i will wait for a wonderful complete version. 0x0

Alannah said 129 days ago
Thanks IC ....
... for stopping by, listening and commenting - yes there is a big big collab coming ... and this tune (albeit slightly different) is definitely on it ... along with a whole host of other earthly delights !!! I am but a small contributor to the BIG project .... there are lots of great macjammers on it !

Roxylee said 129 days ago
It's so hot in here..
I love that opening line... You are the sultriness, Allanah. Real nice what you two did with this. :-)

Alannah said 129 days ago
hahaha
... the "sultriness" ... I like it ... thanks Roxy for listening and commenting !

said 129 days ago
Wow!
This track is HOT! Damn fine job with this one- really enjoyed it!

Alannah said 129 days ago
thanks mikey ....
it does have a certain "steaminess" to it doesn;t it ... I think Doadar and Rabbitwhole for the hotness ......

said 128 days ago
mmmmm
Interesting, not sure what this is, a ballad perhaps anyway good work...

Alannah said 126 days ago
hahaha shadow .......
I'm not sure what most of the stuff I do is .... which is why I always have a hard time when selecting the appropriate "genre" to place it under ... hence the choice of "art" rock ... not even sure what "art rock" is either for that matter ... but it seemed to fit for me ... thanks for stopping by and checking out this tune.
