A simple song about young friends and their daily adventures in our old hometown. Written this song 20 years ago. It's fun to recapture the styles and sound of our band playing it, using the Music Maker 12. I recall how life was so simple back then.
Used Beatbox 1 for drum and VSTi's for the keyboard and bass. And soundpools only. 
The picture is from archives of our hometown. Thanks also to Boyet. 

Dead Old Ground (lyrics)

It was a Saturday night on a month of sun
The night was cool and the sky was bright
Me and my friend strolling around
Finding life in a dead old ground
(Chorus)
Ten thirty, I' m in a hurry
All the time I don't have to worry
Finding life in a dead old ground

I met a girl when I was only 16
Never knew where she could've been
Sweet smile and a sweet caress
I think she was the best
(to chorus)

hallo roy,

I find this song very nice and it recollections also arise when I stood first sometimes 35 years ago on a small stage, nevertheless, without technology, only with my accordion and my voice... it was a nice time...

Interesting look into yesterday...
Old but not too old...
Reminds me on younger and "fresher" days...
Good melody and good singers - until today...
