The basic lyrics for this song were written by my friend Rob. The song describes an imaginary musical contest between the original 50's rockers and the generation that followed. We had fun putting it together and we hope it will bring back some memories for you oldies out there.

  • nice song

  • Thank you for your comment. Much appreciated.

    Cheers

  • Oh, I meant Jerry Lee Lewis' cover of Rock n' Roll, still a great cover though, haha.

  • Thank you again! Actually if you listen carefully, in the chorus I added some clunky piano as a tribute to Jerry Lee. As far as doing a cover of his cover lol, I don't know. I haven't actually heard that song I must confess, but I'd probably have trouble reaching his high notes. Tell you what though. If you want to hear some very good Jerry Lee Lewis covers, check out fellow Aussie, boogieman079. He sounds just like Jerry Lee and plays a mean piano.

  • Holy moly that was amazing! What a lot of work right there ... brilliant song and all that video editing. You are dynamite!

  • Yes I think it was quite clever the way Rob managed to fit in all those references to old stars and their songs. Actually the video was relatively easy to put together since it's composed mainly of still images. The part that was a bit laborious was the animation in the middle. That involved creating four separate images in PhotoShop and then synching them in with the soundtrack.

  • Well, it only took me 17 minutes to write the lyrics to this song, then another 10 or so to tweak it. Of course, Ferdy then weaved his magic over it and this is the finished product - dedicated to all you old rockers out there; they were the days when we could [almost ]understand the lyrics - ah me!

  • Again, another great one! You should do a cover of Jerry Lee Lewis' song Rock n' Roll, I think your voice would compliment it well.

  • Thank you. I really appreciate getting a comment like this as I know you're really into all the old rockers.

  • man this was great!...thanks for share
