Some Pop Music

So sometimes I listen to Triple J and I feel so disappointed by what’s on there. This afternoon I decided that I can’t beat them, so I’ll try and join them.

This is my 2012 indie-pop song. It took me four hours to write, record and mix.

The lyrics are as follows:

I’m gonna write a song with a melody
That triple J will play on the radio
Floor toms on the stage on student night
Dance like we don’t have a care in the world
Hey look there’s a female vocalist
We take turns to convey a narrative
About what we wrote to each other in
Text messages and emails so that gen Y relates

CHANTY CHORUS SING ALONG WITH US
RICHARD KINGSMILL WON’T YOU PLAY MY SONG

Afro-beats and glitter and harmony
I heard Paul Simon’s Graceland is pretty sweet
I love you and you love me 
And I hope these lyrics are vapid enough for the mainstream charts
Baby baby whoa whoa yeah

CHANTY CHORUS SING ALONG WITH US
RICHARD KINGSMILL WON’T YOU PLAY MY SONG
CHANTY CHORUS SING ALONG WITH US
Here’s a song for Triple J, here’s a song for Triple J 
RICHARD KINGSMILL WON’T YOU PLAY MY SONG
Here’s a song for Triple J, here’s a song for Triple J
