In a Perfect World
(c) 2016 E. Kocol & D. Greenway
Ch
What if all we had was each other?
That would be the plan in a perfect world
No-one else to give us any bother
I would be your man in a perfect world
Life was meant to be shared by you and me
Why can't we live in a perfect world?
V1
There's a thing called life, it comes to everyone and cuts like a knife
Too many things to do, when I wanna be alone with you
If only we could be like the animals roaming free
Then we could learn a way to be together nearly every day
Prechorus
You're a lesson I'd like to have more success in
and that's the reason I'd like to spend time with you
Ch
Middle bit
I would spend all my time with you
(in a perfect world)
You'd never be told what to do
(in a perfect world)
Love would always be the subject
(in a perfect world)
in a world that claims to be perfect
Prech

The Monkeys meet Madness.  Sounds about right actually.

Nice bass line there Bapu! Mix is great, as usual, and the kids are a real nice touch.
 
Regards,

Finally!!! The bazz player gets recognition.
 
Now if I could only get the chicks. Daryl's too pretty and Mesh has those kids hanging around. Chicks dig pretty boys and/or men with kids (especially those cute ones).

There's a Bazz player on this?

Nice job all round chaps and ankle snappers, nice Bass sound, good vocal as always, mix nicely balanced, what more could we ask for.

This is a pretty song! The melodies are pretty. The chords are pretty. The voices sound pretty. The drums sound pretty. The instruments, even the Bass sound pretty. And the mix is pretty too.
Somehow you managed to produce a feather-light song. It worked on me... I'm smiling : )
 
Positive vibration,

Lots of strengths, guys! Vocals are I think perfectly mixed, just a touch of bgv!
 
I'd bring the kids in earlier somehow, they are great! Unless that's Bapu melodyned into a chipmunk.
 
The thing that caught my ear the most, though, was the drums. Your snare sounds kind of like a tom, but whatever you did with the drums, they sound like real drums in a real room. Very very good!

p.s. give the Bapu some! Bass solo time! 12 bars at least . . .

Brilliant. That's a big smiler. Deceptively well written song, sounds effortless and breezes along. Hats off folks.

Indeed, why can't we live in a perfect world where all songs would be produced as well as this was?  Actually, great work all the way around and a big well done to all.
