about

Daniel Pencer on the saxophone.

I seem to remember learning as a teen that the DeLeo brothers went to Berklee. Upon factchecking as an adult, I am mistaken!
This song tickled me when it showed up on the Much Countdown. For some context you didn’t ask for, so did Sugar Jones “Days Like That”.
The interplay of D and Bb in the verses is the beauty mark that caught my eye, the sexy Teletubbies meet goth Buffy with Weiland bellydancing video is the full meat and potatoes that won my sixteen yr old heart.
I made two other drafts of this in an attempt to crash course my way through Logic midi stylings, but resorted, as usual, to playing everything on a trusty Casio. Midi sucks! I eschewed the intro and bridge, and the extra choruses etc. And changed ‘followed’ to ’swallowed’ cuz lol.
Daniel Pencer puts knots in the little hairs on your cochlea, sorry not sorry!
