Song information
The base tracks of this song were made 7 or 8 years ago. Something was missing... And i guess (i hope) i found what i was looking for. I asked Ken to play some trumpet on it. He did so nicely... I want to thank him very much for this real brass sound. And then i redid vocals and added backing vocals with Petra. Hope you'll enjoy the song. Written by Kurt Wagner (Lambchop). Quite ambivalent and ironic lyrics. Love them...

brassgospelguy : trumpet
Petra : backing vocals
Dyl : all instruments, lead vocals, backing vocals, mix.

Do as you feel, but this is meant to be played LOUD...

Lyrics
Yeah, there comes a booming sound
It used to come from underground
Now it emanates
From a kind of welfare state
Of the soul
Yeah, baby of the soul

And of that sweet, sweet soul
Let's be certain
The deliberate monologue
As sure as if it will fall
Across you, unto you
Will most certainly leave the doing
Undone

Come on undone
Come on undone

We are doing
And we are screwing

Up our lives today (Today)
Up our lives today (Today)
Up our lives today (Today)
Up our lives today (Today)
Up our lives today (Today)
Up our lives today (Today)
(Up our lives today)

It’s this we chanted
It's this we planted

Come on progeny (Progeny)
Come on progeny (Progeny)
Come on progeny (Progeny)
Come on progeny (Progeny)
Come on progeny (Progeny)
Come on progeny…

Listening to this fine track.. loud! It is really cool. First of all a well written song. The real trumpet adds magic. The vocals, both lead and harmonies are so well performed and captured and processed. Cool sound you created with the mixing. Great guitar work. Rhythm section is perfect also. Super

Very clever tune!  The premise of the lyric is unfortunate in my opinion, but that doesn't diminish my enjoyment of the effort.  Great job on the vocals!  Bravo!

What a beautiful song, it feels so full of life and joy. Love it! Everything works perfectly. Congratulations to all of you. That reggae intro, the way it builds up to end with that chorus of joy!! The live trumpet works so well.
