I'm not so sure about that song title, we'll see.
anyways this song was created for an assignment @ nyu to write a "sexy song". haha. I got some inspiration from the chorus of this long lost soul song called "You're a Hard Habit to Break"- originally performed by Linda Balintine. I took the same chord progression from that chorus, changed the lyrics, rhythm and arrangement, and then wrote a song around it.

I'm hopefully going to have a chance to record it for real pretty soon.

hope you like it. you can check out more of my music here:

lyrics:

Dont get too close
Im a physical liability
And youll probably end up getting wounded
If you stick around thinking Im gonna leave my doubt
Its ingrained in my mind
And if you wanna thaw me out
Be prepared have a blowtorch at your side

Unfair, uneven, unjustified
But if you want to try and get closer
Know I wont lie

chorus:
I probably wont love you til the day I die
But Ill try and love you for at least a while.
Youre not all I need
Youre not all I need
Youre not even close
But I like you, I like you.

Dont kid yourself
Im serial self-important tease
and I dont mean to lead you along but
if you looking to be lead then Im your dream no doubt.
Might as well go ahead
Im a beggar hiding in your banquet feast
Tick tock guess its my time to be fed

Unfair, uneven, unjustified
But if you want to try and get closer
Know I wont lie

I cant deny that I reply to attention
Whats your intention?
I dont have the attention span (x4)

chorus

  • This is beautiful. You should make a studio recording of this.

    Max,I really hope some guys from the record company notice you and sign you. I know that it`s not the most important thing for a musician,But I think it would be very fair cause you are a super talented dude. I mean you got a great voice,crazy piano skills,you write amazing songs and your lyrics are very witty.

    Just one question - are you murdering someone behind this curtain at the very ending of the vid?

  • sexy ?????????????????

  • This is great! Keep it up!

  • haha, this is awesome! def. the most honest song ive come across in a while. anyone who's honest with themself can agree :P. i love the ironic title too, baha.

    how'd your professor/class view the song? :P
