The guys in the booth went nuts. They came on the speaker and said, “Hey, keep doing that. That’s really good.” So we kept at it. But all we had was this cool riff. Mars suggested we add an instrumental interlude. He played these chords that led into the jam, for which I later wrote the lyrics, “Close your eyes girl/ Look inside girl/ Let the sound take you away.”
Told by the guys who wrote the song. I just love these stories.
Classic tune. Had to take it off my “Motorcycle Riding” playlist because it made me ride way too fast! 🙂 But the video that goes along with that story was painful to watch. 🙂
Holy smokes that was some bad lip syncing. But what a great song. That took me right back to Jr. High.
