Karmann Ghia


No artwork

Get Flash to see this player.

Description
a piano/uke shuffle for a friend who is having a "big" birthday (born the day after Sgt Pepper was released in the summer of love - do the math!) - she's a big macca fan (as am I), so the McCartney references are for her. (she owns a Karmann Ghia - hence the name)

also, a "betty" is a girl who hangs out with surfers - as she does!

That's my cat Ting at the end.

Lyrics
hello - who's the baby with the freckles on her nose?
hey ho - who's the baby with the ribbons and the bows?

karmann ghia's gonna shake it tonight
if life's a banquet, then she's taking a bite
she's a "betty" with a big appetite
and she's breakin' loose tonight

hey there - who's the baby with the flowers in her hair?
say where - was my angel when I saw her standing there?

karmann ghia's gonna shake it tonight
if life's a banquet, then she's taking a bite
she's a "betty" with a big appetite
and she's gettin' loose tonight

she awakened in the summer of love and she made love come alive
all the angels in the heavens above are singing "gotta to get you into my life"

hello - who's the baby with the ribbons and the bows?
hey ho - who's the baby in the psychedelic clothes?

karmann ghia's gonna shake it tonight
'cause life's a banquet and she's taking a bite
she's a 'betty" with a big appetite
and she's cuttin' loose tonight. etc..............

Fan-freekin tastic
Loved it loved it.

The "live" sound is so believable. The BVGs awesome and fun. The crowd sounds are spot on. On top of that the kitten cameo, perrrfect.

white album
annnd now for something completely different :-) in the vein of Billy Joel, I lu'v it. You write great songs. This one was sing along, feel good stuff, kazoos and all. Brilliant vocal stuff. harmonies were outstanding

thanks much
you always say such nice stuff. thanks for the encouragement. that's comb and wax paper on the solo. I couldn't find a kazoo anywhere so I had to improvise! i was actually trying to emulate vaudeville mccartney. speaking of mccartney, have you heard his new album "memory almost full" ? it's brilliant - proves he's still got it.

thanks for listening

Production details full of life
Wonderful fun, mixed with very sweet Beatles homage and your perfectly balanced pop stylings. I love your stuff. Such a feel good track. The details you put into production on this one really paid off. Nice track.
