Description
The first song of a six part project between myself and a dear friend, Jim Armstrong. I produced music in a song format... Jim magically produced words... i put them together... and performed them..

This one tells of frustration... anger... disbelief... exasperation... resolve...

Real life experience... always so... real!

Lyrics
You keep me up all night with your honky-tonk thrash,
Can’t fault your playing, but you giving me a rash.
Given all this mayhem, why pay insurance;
Test me to the limit, it’s beyond my endurance…

Shut up, Shut up, Shut up
Shut up, Shut up, Shut up
Shut up, Shut up, Shut up
Shut up, Shut up, Shut up – I’m off…

You’re up all night and you sleep all day,
You’re playin’ late tunes to get me out the way.
Your noise annoys so I don’t think straight no more;
Ya blow my mind, you blow me out the door…
I’m gonna come up and kick you to the ground,
Then chop up your piano and burn your house down.
So I’m movin’ to the country, before I go insane
You’re a screaming demon whose life is down the drain…

Shut up, Shut up, Shut up
Shut up, Shut up, Shut up
Shut up, Shut up, Shut up
Shut up, Shut up, Shut up – I’m done, done, done…

Piano…

Shut up, Shut up, Shut up
Shut up, Shut up, Shut up
Shut up, Shut up, Shut up
Shut up, Shut up, Shut up

Repeat to fade

Well, T. wait 'til you hear this...
The lyrics are true. I moved home from an apartment in Glasgow because of the continual noise. Thru that move, I met Andy (who is with Maggi, that Jack met thru work).

Andy introduced me to the Mac and all it contains and therefore GB and then Macjams. You can see where this is leading....

Thru Macjams, we met and had a great nite out in NYC in May. So the upshot is, everything for a reason. If the guy upstairs had played at a reasonable time of day, then the chances are we wouldn't have met, because I wouldn't have moved at the time.

So it's looks like just another of the 46,000 tunes on this site. But it's not that to me. It's a record of the catalyst the allowed me to be involved in great friendships.

Cool, eh?!

Jim

this is rock song !
great drive and delivery. Very efficient. I like these little 80s drums and sequences in the back. That said, I'm not sure I get the point of the live effects.

Hi...
hehehe... Each to their own... i liked the audience reactions to things you don't see happening... but you hear it....

Thanks for your thoughts...

Heh heh!
Surprise! This is an oldie!

As Andy points out - the lyrics are a true story of a former upstairs piano playing maniac that ruined a few nights sleep. So I actually did move.

And thru that move - I met Andy!

Karma rules!

Arena rock is back with this. powerful rocker.

Piano-rage
No, I love a piano, me. It's when it's being hammered out from upstairs in the wee small hours on a schoolday that it gets annoying!

The irony is - the guy was a a great pianist and if he played at a reasonable hour, I would have enjoyed it!

Never told him that....I just moved to a quieter spot.

I had a similar experience too. This song says it all for me. I'm done, done, done...

Great tune, well played.
