Lyrics

my girlfriend is an alien

she is cold to the touch
but you know i like it that way
she is here from high above
from a planet far far away

she's the girl with a million eyes
the girl with the green skin
but you know shes the one that i always loved
from the star that was sparkalin

she's not from this place
my girlfriend's an alien
she lives in outer space
my girlfriend's an alien

well at first i was scared
cause this girl was really strange
and i never dated a girl
from outside of the milky way

took me on a rocket ship we'd go to venus
she took me all the way to mars
and now we're going to visit her parents
out in the suburbs out there in the stars

it doesn't matter how far away
how far away she gets from me
i can still feel her in the room
just like a stray moon beam

and then she'll play me a love song
on her electric space guitar
and i will be sure to listen to every note
cause i will soon play along

	Hook Perfection Good vibes on this fun tune. Clever lyrics fit the always stylish synth melodies and ear candy along the way. The subtle vocal harmonies in the chorus are well done. I like the self-depreciating tone of the singing and lyrics. Great work on all the elements of this song. Check out my latest song called Dirt Oasis (rough mix)

	Great stuff Mark I particularly loved how you did the vocals for the last refrain..so much I thought: do that all the time, every chorus would be my advice. Amusing, catchy.. well written & performed. Oh.. I felt some of the sound FX things could be more blatant/prominent as you could easily get away with it in this. Check out my latest song called Anyway

alien concepts
What a catchy tune - it just zaps you right from the blast off … and it stays sonically inventive all the way to touchdown.

It's been a week since I heard it the first time … and it's been stuck in my head since as I've been walking around.

The lyrics are fun. If I could offer any feedback, I'd perhaps like to see the ambiguity played up a little bit more between the reality and fantasy of the girl's alien nature - I think there's space for more inventiveness there, but what's here is working … so maybe it's best not to try to change her?

	Nice Clean Sound There should be a movie made just so this song can be played at the end, with kitschy retro animation. Great Pop sound. I'm a Gabrielle Drake / UFO fan, so I also appreciate the photo above. Check out my latest song called Engage
