  • Write, rewrite, then write some more...
I came acroos a very cool music track in Studio A by Bill (r4m) and knew I had to try and write something for it. I went searching for lyrics and came across an interesting idea by John (Mr. Mom), so I cut and pasted away on it and came up with a melody. Mike (musobass) got in on the action and played a mean bass part. So here it is...we hope you like it.

Bill Gifford (r4m) - guitars, drum programming
Mike McKinnon (musobass) - bass
John Scunziano (Mr. Mom) - lyrics
Benny Moore - vocals, mixing


WHO LIVES ON THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON

(V1)
Who lives on the dark side of the moon
And do you know if they're lonely there
Can't they see we're playing our last tune
Are they blind or just don't care

(CHORUS)
Do they say what they mean and live what they dream
And know the secret truth
Is there love on the dark side of the moon
Do they play in the dark and gaze at the stars
I really wish I knew   
Who lives on the dark side of the moon

(V2)
Have they seen a sunset or our planet's deep blue seas
Do they think our life's a fairy tale
Are they blind to all our misery
Now have they found the holy grail

(CHORUS)

Baby, baby, baby, baby don't you care
Baby, baby, baby are they lonely there

(CHORUS)

Hey guys,

A very well crafted, written, played and produced song.

Sounds very professional and radio ready.

Benny its cool to hear you sing a harder edged song :) - great job.

John - so now you've got Spaceman, and Dark Side, whats next :)

Sounds great to me also, and feel free to share the writing credits with me Benny. :)
This one has a nice fat sound to it, which I guess would be expected with Bill and Mike on board. 8)

@Andy - I think both "Meter" and "Mirror" would compliment these two nicely. :)
Damn it Jim! I'm a WRITER - not a Doctor!!

Everything falls in place from an edgy riff to a great melody on great lyrics and pristine production!

Hey guys, thanks for the nice comments. 8)  This one just "happened" and we got it done in about a week I think. Wish they could all go like this.

Radio-ready, as usual. When you get famous I'll tell all my friends I already knew you when you weren't!

But beware - the commercial world out there is not such a cozy place like here! So you better stay here. ;)
