Some Will Relate To This One- "AGING SUCKS" featuring the Forum Crowd Singers
The actor Maurice Chevalier famously said "Old age isn't so bad when you consider the alternative." I say- BS... aging sucks, so I decided to write a song about it. I figured I would need a 'crowd vocal' to make it work, and was fortunate to enlist the aid of a few forum friends to help out. My crowd consists of- Ed (Bapu) Kocol- 2 voices Reece (Beagle) Bain- 3 voices Tim (Timidi) Bowman- 4 voices Myself- 5 or 6 voices... I don't know... I lost track Also, special thanks to Bapu for all of his input and advice through multiple variations, iterations and mixes of the tune. The guitarist was Grey Welkin. https://soundcloud.com/phil-doyle-292979186/aging-sucks Hope you enjoy it. All comments welcome of course, and extra points if you pick up on the 2 iconic rock titles embedded in the lyrics.

first i didn't wanna listen to this track, being afraid I would be totally depressed for the rest of the day, but after I did I found myself with a big smile on my face : ) ...at some point I visualized Iggy Pop singing that song :D :D :D

Now that was a fun tune... really liked the guitar solo - sweet and to the point. And the lyrics were just great. Where else ya gonna hear a line like "And now I’m cruising in a four door Honda"? Or Pontiac in my case.  I forget though... what was the point of the song?

Yeah. Aging does suck, but so does soiling ones diaper and cutting teeth. Somehow I think our problems age with us. Nevertheless, so do the good things.The conditions have aged, but the certainty hasn't and I guess it never will.
In any event, I love the tune! You crushed the grape and made wine here. Thanks for sharing and keep it going!

Well written, funny and a catchy tune for the main riff - one that does not get out of your head easily. The guitar playing ain't half bad neither
