Development - Rivers Cuomo's Song Writing Dealio

▼ Lyrics ▼

WhATCHA playin in my ear
You got A fix OF WHAT IT IS I WANNA HEAR
Coming through THE FREQUENCIES
And the airwaves

You tell me I should go to school
Hey man, back off, CUZ YOU DON'T LOOK so cool
With your button DOWN shirt tie smack
Man you're so whack

LET THE MUSIC PLAY
LET THE ROCKERS ROLL
WE DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY
WE'RE TURNIN UP THE RADIO

Listen as I START MY JAMS
tuning into the stations on the stereo
don't you dare touch THAT dial
CUZ I'VE GOT STYLE
FOR MILES AND MILES

everybody clap your hands
Groovin' to the way I roll WITH MY ROCK BAND
YOU KNOW WE GONNA turn back time
To THE 80'S

LET THE MUSIC PLAY
LET THE ROCKERS ROLL
WE DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY
WE'RE TURNIN UP THE RADIO

Da-da-da-da-da-dAaAaAaAaA

(solo)

LET THE MUSIC PLAY
(let the music play)
LET THE ROCKERS ROLL
(the rockers roll)
WE DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY
(what you say)
WE'RE TURNIN UP THE RADIO
(the radio)


A lot of Oh's.

We're turning up the Radio!!
We're turning up the Radio!!
We're turning up the Radio!!

We're turning up the Radi-
Turning up the Eighties
Turning up the Radio!

the "chugga-chugga" and the bridge and odd solo are so out of place. some good ideas, some not so good ideas.

[bleed0range]

I was trying to be different and approach it as though you were "turning up the radio" once it gets to that part. I knew it didn't fit that well but I didn't want to do it the boring obvious way... I had more ideas that worked better but I chose to go the odd-ball route instead and I mixed in other ideas into one idea. It probably didn't work as well as I thought when I did it but oh well.

jesus christ dude, your shit is awesome

[bleed0range]

ha, thanks

[andrewface]

bridge doesnt fit

guitar solo isnt nearly badass enough

[bleed0range]

Please friend, show me how it's done.
