Hi all,

New song I had the music to for a while and finally got around to adding lyrics. Different vein to my usual grunge stuff:

GOT MY ATTENTION
(Words by Jonathan Linton, Music by Jonathan Linton)

Shake it up
Play it into your hands
Turn the right people
Into your fans
Take control
Before they know it
Smoking gun
But never show it
Bible belt
Punch below it
Evil wins
Before we know it

But I’m watchin’ you

Wow, such a stunning ascension
The Right time
And right pretension
You got my attention
You, got my attention

Break it up
Unite your right clans
Sling ***
Watch where it lands
Cause a rift
Then you grow it
Evidence
Hide and stow it
Draw the line
But never toe it
Sinking ship
But still you row it

Now we’re onto you

Wow, such a stunning ascension
The Right time
And right pretension
You got my attention
You, got my attention

SOLO

Wow, such a stunning ascension
The Right time
And right pretension
You, got my attention
You, got my attention
Break through the surface tension
Take it to
Another dimension
You, got my attention
You, got my attention

Part takes me back to; The Cars, KISS during the first section of the verse, B-52's second section of the verse and April Wine during the guitar lead. That bass and drum groove is sweet. Catchy. The more I listen to it the more I liked it. Some three part harmony built up before the guitar solo and towards the end would be a nice touch. Just a thought, a reintroduction of the intro could be kool may be right before the guitar lead at 1:56.
