A cover of Swing! Tavi Swing! by Joaftheloaf.

This was a lot of fun to do! The chords took a bit of time to dictate, but I think it ended up pretty close to the original. The original is in C minor, but my vocal range doesn't go quite that high, so I kicked it down to A minor. Lead sheet to come for those interested.

All parts performed or programmed by myself.

Software: Sonar 8; Adobe Audition 1.5; Kontakt 5 Basic
Drum samples provided by Native Instruments Studio Drummer
Vibrophone sample by DSK
Piano sample by DSK

Lyrics:

If it's groove you're looking for,
then you've come to the right place
Oh Octavia can't you see,
Classical is not the type for me

Now don't you look the other way,
cause this music's here to stay
Now wipe that grin right off your face
Cause it'll all be gone once you step into this place

So put down that cello or go grab a bass,
cause we're swingin' here tonight, this ain't no fancy music place.
You just gotta let it go, from everything that tells you no
Even if this is not your type of show, your type of show.

Maybe you've learned a thing or two,
'bout how fast those hooves can groove
Now c'mon just take a chance,
these beats will put you in a trance.

Now these things you just can't forget.
It would only bring regret
There's one thing you must know:
Ya' can't stop this crowd from stomping on this floor

So put down that cello and go grab a bass,
cause we're swingin' here tonight, this ain't no fancy music place.
You just gotta let it go, from everything that tells you no
Even if this is not your type of show, your type of show.

[Laughter]

[Guitar Solo]

C'mon! Let's really swing!

[Laughter]

Yeah!

So put down that cello and go grab a bass,
cause we're swingin' here tonight, this ain't no fancy music place.
You just gotta let it go, from everything that tells you no
Even if this is not your type of show, your type of show.
