Title: Creepy Crawlers (Casia/Stoney/Snowy/Jay)
Post by: Stoney on July 25, 2010, 02:39:26 PM
Hi
Cas contacted me the other day with these lyrics and said after writing them she naturally thought of me..... Not sure that I think thats a good thing Cas.....but I couldn't resist the craziness of this one could I

Both Mike and Jay have done stirling jobs bringing my sad bed track to life by weaving their magic and I really thank them for their patience in dealing with a music numpty such as myself.

Hope you like it  :)

Creepy Crawlers
By Casia

(V1)
Creepy crawlers creeping up my wall
I can hear them with their buggy calls
I can see them staring
Ready to fly
Like a red baron into my eye

(Chorus)
Creepy crawlers
Hide your daughters
So distasteful
To watch the slaughter
Creepy crawlers
Stay off my collar
Of you'll go deaf
With my hollers

Yeoooow

(V2)
Where's the fly swatter so I can swat
A rolled newspaper is all I've got
I'm on a mission
I'm staring back
My biggest plan...is a freakout attack
Creepy crawlers are fighting back

(Chorus)
Creepy crawlers
Hide your daughters
So distasteful
To watch the slaughter
Creepy crawlers
Stay off my collar
Of you'll go deaf
With my hollers

(Bridge)
I'll never give up
I'll give it my best
Watch me swat
With the best of the best
I'll never give up
I'll give it my best
Watch me swat
With the best of the best
Watch me swat
With my very last breath

(V3)
They're all around me, I've gone insane
Can't close my eyes or I'll feel the pain
They'll steal my blood
With their toothless bite
But I'm a kamakazee pilot tonight
Creepy crawlers drive me insane

(Chorus x2)
Creepy crawlers
Hide your daughters
So distasteful
To watch the slaughter
Creepy crawlers
Stay off my collar
Or you'll go deaf
With my hollers

Yeaoowww

(Outro)
How can I work I can't carry on
With this thing on my wall
All it does is creep, creep and it crawls

Creepy crawlers
Creepy crawlers
Creepy crawlers
Creepy crawlers
Creepy crawlers
Creepy crawlers
Creepy crawlers
Creep, creep, creep, creep....

A productive day in the Stonehead lab-0-ratory ! Your dedication to these collabs is unparalleled. It's always a pleasure working with you.

this one came together really well.. great lyric, great production. Mike's spooky playing was perfect, I think. The song was almost complete when I first heard it.. thanks for letting me play along :)

Hey Guys,

Very very Cool - very 60s psychedelic. Great spritit, writing, playing and production. Loved the guitars and keys, and of course the singing and drumming.

LSD drenched visions huh?

Stoney you pied piper you - how can you be so prolific - Im lost in admiration.

Buzzing off

Gertcha hahaah!  That was one of the finest moments of the track.  Very enjoyable.  I would play this in my office for the buggy but I'm sorry to say he has gone to buggy heaven and I don't think it was my fault.

Deserves a few more laughs.  ;D ;D 8) :D ;D

Post by: Stoney on August 08, 2010, 01:30:45 AM
Haha thanks Mr Mom

The software is a bit of a learning curve and the lip sync should have been better but I forgot to use a vocal sep without FX ...Doh!!!!!

A cool bit of free software though  :) :)
Title: Re: Creepy Crawlers (Casia/Stoney/Snowy/Jay)
Post by: Billy on August 08, 2010, 01:51:08 AM
That confirms it!! You're absolutely stark, raving mad!  >:D

You know The Simpson's first started out in the Tracey Ullman show. Perhaps you could do something similar with this?  Midway through the ten o'clock news would be good, just to give everyone a laugh after so much doom and gloom.

Hey Stoney,
If you're wanting to do another animation, I watched a couple of the Star Trek anime's and have one that might be easy to work with. It could be spoken word or set to music. Just throwing it your way if you're interested. Here's the words:

I'm loving Muvizu, looks like another place to take up all our precious time! ;D ;D

Yeah there are some cool ones up there...looks like this software is catching on......To honest I have quite a few tracks I can now work on ...I think "Bathtime Spider" is a good candidate.. I recomend that you download the software John and get stuck in...This took me about a day to do and that is with the learning curve so it is not too bad...and a lot of fun

I'll give it a try Stoney, but me and technology make a very odd couple. :o :o ;D

Post by: Stoney on August 09, 2010, 01:40:10 AM
Honestly John it's not too bad to learn ...just take the time to watch all their tutorial vids and you will be away...t :)he main thing is to work around it's limitations.
