Booze Makes You Stupid

[Oren]

"Booze Makes You Stupid " is a song about those of us who, at one time or another, drink more than is wise....
So, here's the bass and drum track that I came up with, based on "ghosting" some ideas from the Monk's punk song "Drugs In My Pocket".
(I'll perform the bass again and do a better job... )
If you feel inspired to contribute some vocals or instrumental tracks, use this as your backing track....

Beats per Minute: 70  The verse works in "A" , the chorus drops down to "E".

[Oren]

...and here is a brief clip of a vocal idea, just to give an idea of the "spirit" of the song...

(when rendering audio files for these collaborations, I have "dithering" turned off in all my audio applications, so that you can download them and apply editing and effects without getting any added noise in the process - I ask that you do the same - for the sake of best audio quality )

Certainly big potential here
I love that bass line BTW

...I love that bass line BTW...

Thanks, Kara... Just call me "Big Bottom"

[Oren]

For those who want to make their own mix of the song -      - here is the percussion track...

[Oren]

...and seeing as how Kara thinks the bass is just fine , here it is in stereo...

[Oren]

...or, if you prefer your bass track in monaural...

[manning]

cheers.

oren..
ok..mate ive mapped out some crazy lyrical concepts for this song.
n need yer comments.
i hear this sung in a daft cokney comic style.
heres the lyric concepts.
if yer ok with the general idea , i'll av a bash at vocs this week mate.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
v1,
booze makes yer stoopid, tis a well known fact.
you cant get it up with a bird in the sack.
ya got to sleep after a glass of wine,
leavin her unsatisfied most of the time.

chorus.(ch).
booze it up, booze it up.
you cant get it up, cos ya boozed it up.

v2.
you wobble down the street like a silly duck,
you loose yer job n yer mind gets stuck.
you throw up over yer nice new bed,
which you tumble into with yer face turning red.
repeat ch.

now a small talky.
"i went to this pub called the pissed kitten..
cos i was hard for jennifer the barmaid.
after closing time she takes me up
the "apples n pears" (stairs to bed..to those who dont know ).
i was hoping to get a little "hows yer father".
but boy was she mighty pissed , cos cos instead of a hard tripod
she got a limp dishrag".
repeat ch.

v3.
i once ad two birds in la belle province.
i chatted up at the local "danse".
but when i woke up they was snoggin each other..
cos i was in the land of nod n drunk as a bugger.
but i really got turned on that crazy night..
ole percy was doin a dance n gave me a fright.

v4.
i once met a duchess at a hunt.
what a corker she was with a nice soft "hows yer father".
she had a big ballroom n lots of champagne.
n she kept on yelling
"faster , faster, do me again".
but she wasnt so happy when i did her maid,
poor likkle mary just wanted to get laid.
repeat ch.

outtro.
when i look back at all the women n all the booze,
well the the booze got pissed down the flippin loo.
n i reckon i pissed off the women, most of the time TOO!!. (huh !!)
but dont blame me, i'm just a cokney lunk.
its in me genes to get laid n get blind drunk.
---------------------------------------------------
tell me your opinions oren, or anyone else.
then i'll do vocs with your amendments etc.
god bless.

[Oren]

Beautiful!!!...an unqualified yes

[manning]

ok mate.
gimme a few days to experiment with the vocs
lots to do. i just gotta finish up something else.
"wot a giggle it'll be"..lol.
all the best.

[Oren]

"wot a giggle it'll be"..lol.

Wot a giggle, indeed!

[manning]

ok mate.
but next song so people are scratchi their heads..
will be an old love song sinatra style croon...
all bout lovely fields n daisies n moonlight...lol.

[Oren]

ok mate.
but next song so people are scratchi their heads..
will be an old love song sinatra style croon...
all bout lovely fields n daisies n moonlight...lol.

We can do this, although I'm more inclined towards Tony Bennett or Bing Crosby

[manning]

oren.
yeh something in the style of a bing croon..
that would really fox people out..lol.

i'm in the middle of working up the arrangement mate.
so i'm slicing n cutting up your backing...
so i hope to have a ruff arrange in a couple of days.


if you can bear with me cos i need to devote time to my doggie
whereby we found out today needs surgery.
nothing major..but stuff to attend to mate.
we love our doggie of course.
i'll try n have a ruff arrange with vocs by wednesday hopefully.
as an mp3 you can critique.
all the best.
