Description
Bob Dorsey pointed her out - it's his fault....

I don't know what this is - it took 25 minutes total (can you tell?!) Sometimes you just have to get it out there...

Lyrics
Well you’re a one of a kind
That likes to be there,
Pushin’ all the buttons
In your bid to be heard
You’re like a bird in the hand
So onto the case
Wherever you turn up
You got your well-quoted face

You don’t need to be flash
You don’t need to be on show
You got it all goin’ on
You’re the girl in Day-Glo

I can see you leave the bar
No pictures for you
You’re shining like a star
As you’re followed by your crew
A flash of your smile
Can make a man red
A flick of your skirt
Can always turn a head

You don’t need to be flash
You don’t need to be on show
You got it all goin’ on
You’re the girl in Day-Glo

And when you go to bed
Who’s with you instead
Of me….some lucky bastard!

You don’t need to be flash
You don’t need to be on show
You got it all goin’ on
You’re the girl in Day-Glo

Retarded Synth Attack!!
YOW-ZA!!

I guess I won't apologize, I'll just take full credit.

Thank you very much Jim.

You're not only a rockstar in my book, you're a dear friend.

Who taught you how to play those day-glo synth riffs? I'm jealous!

Too Many Years..

...listening to the Stranglers. I actually tried to sound like Five Extra Arms. Awwww, now why didn't you sing on this!!!???? This music sooo suits your voice!

Yep - full credit - if you had'na pointed her out, I would have forgotten about the other pix I took that day!

See, when the spark flies, just ignite!

Cheers! (Will raise a Murph's in 5 9th soon).

Dorsey
is taking the blame for a lot of tunes these days. Maybe it's becuase he was the muse on this tune, but it sounds like it could be your entry on the Lost Songs Project. It's a jam and a half. Strike that. it's a jam and two thirds.

Man of much inspiration, not so much blame...

I'm switching channels to check Bad Robot now. With a title like that, I wonder who's involved....?

5 Extra Arms.
.. is a trouble maker. It's his fault I'm in a side project band and have half the time to try and do twice as much.

This is great though - love those 80's Amiga demo synths!!

Can and will lead you to places you never thought you'd visit (musically & geographically in my case...!)

BEWARE!

Cheers for tuning in!

Even though
this is synths I can hear a Scottish bagpipe feel in there and the feeling of a reel in the rhythm of the counter melody Jim. This sounds good and fresh. Great sound with the doubled vocals and interesting lyrics that keep you listening, cheers M

Hey Mo!

Long time no hear (my fault) - good to see on this page. Ha ha ! Bagpipes - I see where you're coming from! This is a wee 'throwaway'...so, really appreciate your comments!

ATB & GBY,

If you were
trying to sound like Bob - I'd say you succeeded.
Great fun lyrics and very engaging spontaneous music.
Very enjoyed.
Cheers

Cheers, Len!

Spontaneous - that's the word! I was waiting on someone to say that so I could check the spelling..!

You know how it is - if it just arrives in your head, sometimes it's good to just get it out there.

You know I appreciate your continued support, thank you!

ooh sexy
Hey Jim
Nice Rock out, this is a mover and shaker.

25 minutes? This is practically live!
Love the sexy lyrics and sweet synths...
The change ups are pretty neat too.
One of a kind and you got it going on musically!
Nice Jam

The Infinites said 91 days ago (August 26th, 2009)
Yup, T - 25..!


..and really, I don't even care if it's mixed right, or the voice is not happening 'properly' or anything - it was one of those 'must do' moments that you have to seize (especially these days - it's all toooo busy, aaaaargh!!!)

Live!! - Love it! That's a very astute observation, kinda feels that way now that you mention it!

'til Sept, when we can discuss further...heeh heeh!!!

Cheers, T,

XXX

The speed that I spewed this out at just made me forget to change the 'XXX' part in the send to iTunes bit, , but hey, why not - it could be the extra hidden track, ha ha!!!

In the moment...

... spot on Vic! Bob said one thing about this girl in the photo and that was me off and running. He has a way with words y'know...kinda hypnotic, makes you do things that you didn't know you wanted to. But I ain't complaining!

Thanks for checking it out Vic - a valued customer indeed!

ask Dr Daley
Dear Infinites.

Do not worry about your peformance. 25 minutes is considered normal, and can be even regarded as good, especially with a day-glo girl in a bar.
The Infinites said 89 days ago (August 28th, 2009)
Dear Doctor D...

I appreciate your on-line diagnosis of bar+girl+dayglo= good

But normal? Maybe I need to get that checked out...

No need to make excuses - just music
Love the face full of synth and the lyrics are a hoot. But I'm happy to blame Bob for anything.

Eclectic tastes - that's why I come here. Mozart to Motorhead; Bowie to Bach, TG to 5EA, Andy C to Anita O'Day. It's all good! Sex Pistols at The Lincoln Center - it's musical ying/yang I'm interested in. Here is my all time best piece of U... [see more]
