LOVE TRACK
(The forgotten ballad)
November ’99

Shacky Shak lone standin’ in the cold            C Eb F C
Exchangin’ wild premises as fine gold            C Eb F C
Wishing to be closer for quick snack            Eb F C
Singin’ stupid song it’s called ‘Love Track’        Eb F C
All those flashin’ ladies dressin’ black            Am     C
Fixin’ nails as hard bones in their flesh            Am    G
each one of them is just asking more            F    C
each one of them is just asking love            Am     G

Shacky Shack met Nice Gipsy Little Heart
She dressing black and purple rainbow spark
crazy ramblin’ hot  lonely daydreams
her pert mind ready exchanging jokes and tricks
They travelled any corner in the nite
Looking for proper place to skip or ride
Feelin’ (the) shiver running through town streets
Till even city angels fall asleep

He said I’m not an Ace I’m just a Jack
I’ll try to bend my soul in this Love Track
I love the song I write and never sing
A secret piece of soul which you can stick
Now they’re fencing with their wishes in a love cage
Trying to get each other soul in jail
They’re running at ev’ry time in the dark nite
Running the love track until daytime

OK, Jackcat, don't hate me for that, but the beggining 30 secs of the video is terrible when it comes to the guitars being out of tune. I had to switch it off as my ears couldnt take it Maybe it is the guitarist's intention to hit notes that sound out of tunes (chords, rather) maybe it is just coincindence ... dont know

Regarding this one here, it seems fine to me. it has a great vibe to it, and sounds a lot like a live performance. The singing is competent too. I could elaborate on themix, but it's pointless as I guess it is a studio live performance so the mix is what it is - lacks a bit of spark in my opinion - maybe some post-production compression and mastering would help. But if there has been some of that applied already, I think there should have been more.

Overall, quite OK. I would love to see you live. I think the vocalist is top notch in the video

As one Jack to another... I always dig your lyrics....
I went through that set without a hiccup... an easy melody... a live studio set, woulda loved to hear some more live breaks and outbreaks... Good stuff!
