Song #7: Heavy D
Download MP3 Here!

I was messing around last night with this weird chord and this sort of stumbled out of my mouth. It's really just one of those fun songs with lots of delay...I might rework it later on...perhaps a total overhaul...but I do like parts of it...it's sort of got a Wilco "Being There" vibe.

I won't even tell you what it's about...guesses anyone?

Heavy D
Lyrics/Music by Matt Hopper

If you want it you can take it home
If you want it you can take it home

You can’t be messing around
You can’t keep messing around

So shiny so big and delicate
So shiny you trade your drugs for it

You feel it you feel it in your bones
You feel it you feel it in your bones

in all honesty, this kinda has a "hidden track" feel to it. the delay is fun.

ha ha, whoops.

Yeah, it's a goof song. I like some of the ideas though and might develop it later while in the throes of a 6 week recording session in some giant studio...who knows.

actually, hopper, i guve up. what's it about? all i can think of is the rapper. "so shiny and delicate"... is it about the bling-bling?
