Lyrics

THE WAY LIFE GOES

v1) I stay up all nite sleep all day
there's never too much time to play
got a drink in my hand not much for clothes
and that's the way life goes

pre-chorus: living is easy with you there to please me
don't care if you tease me from nine to five

CHORUS: DA- DA -DA -DA -DA -DA- DA- DA- DA
THAT'S THE WAY LIFE GOES
DA- DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA
THAT'S THE WAY LIFE GOES

V2) riding the wind taste of the sea
sun on my face that's the life for me
resting my bones loving with ease
and that's the way life goes

pre-chorus: living is easy with you there to please me
don't care if you tease me from nine to five

CHORUS: DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA- DA
THAT'S THE WAY LIFE GOES
DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA
THAT'S THE WAY LIFE GOES

Bridge: guitar solo

CHORUS: DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA- DA
THAT'S THE WAY LIFE GOES
DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA
THAT'S THE WAY LIFE GOES

Very well written and well-performed piece. Great beat and really cool flow to it all the way through. Vocals very good and refreshing and really nice arrangement. Really good hook that can get your toes tapping.

Smooth rock with a classic lead vocal, very American. Intro is simple and uncluttered and builds with some good harmonies and lead guitar, pretty much singing along to this song by the end and I don't say this often but could have and should have lasted at least another 20 seconds The beauty of this track is that it feels this has been easy to put down and that's the way it should be - nice work

Besides the fact that this is the story of my early life this is a real joy. A real personality singing with marked sincerity and a great little arrangement ...Maybe a little too much joy for a guy that sleeps all day...but hey....we were all there once upon a time.

Similar in style and tine to Sheryl Crow's " All I wanna Do " , no real criticisms , indie /pop with an edge.

Very interested in the track from the downbeat of the acoustic. Really nice song...simple but creative and very original sounding. Speaking of sounds...Great sounds on everything. The lead vocal and ALL of the instruments were recorded by a pro in a pro studio, I would guess. Everyone knows how to play and it shows. The recording, mix, and mastering job are all of absolute top notch quality. I think the hook in the chorus could be useful for a number of applications in the commercial world...if you wanted to take it that way. Great work.

Great hook. The sort of song which would be the soundbite in adverts, films and TV. Good vibe. Nice mix and combination of vocals and instruments. Nice vocal tone. Playing not in your face/nicely understated. Arrangement really well executed. Sort of singer/band I'd love to hear in a café/bar by the beach.

Like the Vocals, and the lyrics.

This is a very clever track with very original sounds and a very catchy hook. The initial guitar has a particularity strange tone/fx which gives it an unusual, very slight, distortion. The vocalist has a great laid back smokey voice which works very well for the track.
There are a lot of very nice touches such as background vocals going on, echo, and great harmonies. It just sounds like a hit single!

from start to finish, this song engages you. nicely done.

Strong vocal presence... great voice! Cool effects on the opening guitar riff. Nice spaced out instrumentation allows all the parts to come through the mix nicely. Good tone on dirty guitar solo at around 2:00. All up a great effort and cool track!

This has a good pop hook and is very catchy. Like the electric guitar break in the bridge

The recording sounds very professional, and the vocals are great. Well done!

Beautiful vocal performance. Some great hooks.

Really good percussion in this tune.

Overall it's just such an enjoyable listen.
