Description
This song was based in experimentation with Logic's Delay Designer and with an autotune freebie I found. It's kind of a tribute to a band I used to be in: we would drag all kinds of instruments we really couldn't play, synths, toy instruments, drum machines, casios and samplers up on stage with us. it was a warped take on pop and most of the ambience was improvised.
Most of this was done with EXS instruments I have made (actually no synths on here), a couple of different mellotron instruments and some drums/percussion. The ending was originally in the middle of the song, but I hated it there, so I moved stuff around and stuck it on the end. Funny thing is I played it for APOD and Bryn sent me an email suggesting the very thing while I was in the middle of doing it.
Lyrics are about my family (pretty obvious). Picture is something I took down the street when picking up some milk.

Lyrics
the days are growing long
the summertime is here
there's music in our home
the summertime is here
so much left it's just begun
our lives are so entwined
we got married we had children
our lives are so entwined
we don't need much
we've got everything we need
we try so hard
we've done everything we should
and every night
i sleep like a baby
i know it's right
i know we're a family
let's remember to embrace
before the day is gone
we try to feel the way we did
when we were young
theres so much left it's just begun
our lives are so entwined
we got married we had children
our lives are so entwined
we don't need much
we've got everything we need
we try so hard
we've done everything we should
and every night
i sleep like a baby
i know it's right
i know we're a family
and when we're tired
and need some space
we'll say some things
that should never have been said
i'm sorry when
I act that way
i'm sorry when
I act that way
i'm sorry when
I act that way
the summertime is here
there's music in our home
the summertime is here
so much left it's just begun
our lives are so entwined
we got married we had children
our lives are so entwined
we don't need much
we've got everything we need
we try so hard
we've done everything we should
and every night
i sleep like a baby
i know it's right
i know we're a family
let's remember to embrace
before the day is gone
we try to feel the way we did
when we were young
theres so much left it's just begun
our lives are so entwined
we got married we had children
our lives are so entwined
we don't need much
we've got everything we need
we try so hard
we've done everything we should
and every night
i sleep like a baby
i know it's right
i know we're a family
and when we're tired
and need some space
we'll say some things
that should never have been said
i'm sorry when
I act that way
i'm sorry when
I act that way
i'm sorry when
I act that way

Your vocals got me from the start... love the tune ... it's trips along nicely and has a catchy melody ... great harmonies. Real fun sounds you added to the mix. Real enjoyable piece ... almost 60's psychedelic.
