15th Anniversary Song

OK, it's partly plagerized, and mostly untrue, but I assembled a 15th anniversary SVX Song, and put it in my locker. It's the first time I've ever used my locker, so it took me a while to figure out that the original mp3 file at 5 meg wouldn't fit. This one's about a meg. The song is your typical story...guy sees new SVX in showroom, falls in love, goes broke trying to pay for it, grows up to be a middle class suburbanite, owns lots of other toys now, but just can't part with his old SVX, which he has affectionately named "Built to Crash". Probably someone out there has a similar tale to tell.

Good job, but I have a problem with the name "Built to Crash". That is just wrong.

Yea, you're right Earl. But I just kept thinking of the Subaru ad that said something like "drive fast; get lots of tickets..", and I always finish the statement with "...and wreck your new car!" Besides "crash" rymes with almost everything .

True, but I don't like the images that I get in my mind when I hear that.

Congratulations Cappy.

Please post the words as text. Not promising anything, but will have a go at making it into an original ballad, with a melody including a few more chords to lift it up a bit.

Damn good effort, Trevor

P.S. Your vocal is right up there. What key are you using, singing/playing, based on usual 440 pitch?

How about:-

"Lightning Flash," or, "My Red/Blue/siver?? Flash."
