Challenge: MORSE CODELiner Notes
A love letter to the B52s and Godzilla.. (That's KAIJU being tapped out on the morse buzzer) #surf #B52s #Gojira #kaiju
Lyrics
Beach blanket bingo on Bikini Atoll, Pass the tanning butter, keep the Mai Tais coming, Full fathom five what’s occurring? Underwater something is stirring
[Pre-Chorus] We’re all moving to the geiger counter beat, The sand is shaking under our feet, From the Permian Age, a megasaur Godzilla rising, stomping on the floor [Chorus] She’s been woken from deep in the ocean, Groovin’ on the beach with a nuclear motion! Kaiju party- here she comes! Dancin' to the beat of the atomic drum! Verse 2: She’s a big hit in the Pacific Do the Buster Jangle Do the Operation Castle Tropical islands glowing in the night Godzilla goddess does the hitch-hike [Pre-Chorus] We’re all moving to the geiger counter beat, The sand is shaking under our feet, Godzilla roars, shooting flame into the sky she’s a rocka hula baby, Fourteen storeys high [Chorus] She’s been woken from deep in the ocean, Groovin’ on the beach with a nuclear motion! Kaiju party here she comes! Dancin' to the beat of the atomic drum! Kaiju party here she comes! Dancin' to the beat of the atomic drum!

OH hell yeah, there it is. Loving this--the B-52s nod comes through, but still definitely yours. The geiger-counter beat is such a thing...better than the MRI waltz. This was such a fun song! Vocals and arrangements were all perfect for this piece.

Back for the remix. I mean it would have totally blown my mind if you'd done like a dance or drum'n'bass remix or something. P3t3 now much clearer! The vocal interplay is super. And 'Dancin' to the beat of the atomic drum' is such a good line!
Cool song - the vocals work well together, though P3t3's could do with a little more volume at least for the first half or so. Don't hide your bushel under a light. Or something like that. Surf-y guitars, morse code driving beat. This has it all going on. It's a groove for sure!

Oooo, I rlly like the psych-rock feel of this one in the beginning. Super cool you used the original chords for Godzilla too. Love it! Happy FAWM

The Morse Code challenge practically begs for a B-52s homage. :-) Makes me want to dance the frug or something. That Farfisa and drumbeat are spot on, as are those lyrics. Y'all have done your homework! All that's missing is a second female voice with psychedelic harmonies.
