Money - another song titled Money
Did this a few years back. Back when Obama first got in office. Heard Lady Gaga do 'Poker Face' and loved it. Wanted to do something in that vein. Would appreciate a listen and any feedback you have to offer. Thanks. https://soundcloud.com/sparkplugjohnny/money

Brilliant! :D Love the songwriting.
Performances, mix, and overall production are superb. Wow. I just love this! Gaga can't touch this. ;) Although judging by your photo I'm guessing she probably looks better in a skin tight rubber suit.

Thanks, Waltenstein. Glad you liked it. Yes, definitely hope Gaga looks better in the skin tights than me. :)

This is almost too good for words. The thing at 1:00 was awesome.

Awesome... The lyrics are hilarious and your delivery was perfect! Your vocal sound and style remind me of Dr. John. I like the section from 1:30 to 1:45. Cool! Thanks for sharing this. I really enjoyed it!

If money is indeed the root of all evil then I must be a very good person because large quantities of money seem to have eluded me!?!?
What a terrific number with great lyrics, humour and nice catchy tune. Your vocals are perfectly done.
Veeeerrry nice!!!! If you ever put it up for sale on iTunes I would buy it ---'cept I ain't got no money. ;>)

Good song!! It had me tapping my foot and chuckling. Doesn't get much better than that. Sounds like a good mix over here. Love the harmonies.

I'd poker face (other parts too?) That is a great video. This was pretty good :-) Different style, well produced. This is how Jackie Gleason as "Sheriff Justice" in Smoky and the Bandit would have sang it

I did, it was good, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to imply otherwise. Creativity comes in many forms. And creative + different + talent is always refreshing, regardless of the genera or production.

Hey, Charlie, Great to see you back around on the forum! Very cool, fun song with a really nice modern dance/pop vibe and some really tasty synth textures and creative songwriting. The fresh sounding mix is clear and punchy, with a nice, glossy feel to it, that's perfect for the pop genre. Great stuff, buddy, have a good one!  Bob

Pretty dang cool, I think. Hard not to groove to this. Excellent, nice mix and EQ on vocal, which is very well done.

Powerful song. I like the way you mixed those synths ,vocals are top notch and fit the song well. Nothing to find wrong with it. The vocals are good too. We need a male pop diva and I vote for you!!! I think you give them all a run for their *ahem* money.
