Old song? New song!

I went back to one of my old songs today - a song that I have a lot of affection for, but was never pleased with the final outcome. I'm quite chuffed with it now.

Hey, You! (revisited)

It's a funny old song - tips a hat to vintage soul, and in the original had a slight sound of Len Barry's 1-2-3. It now sounds more like Instant Karma!, and it's all the better for it. Enjoy!


STOP PRESS!

Radio play (proper radio, with transmitters and all!) coming up for this song soon! I'll tip a wink as it gets closer.

STOP PRESS! AGAIN!

The reviews are in:

"Time well spent! Nice work!"

"Excellent stuff! This is a fantastic, well-crafted song with a great hook and feeling to it. Especially liked the backing vocals."

"Poptastic sp3ccylad. Very well put together, great layering. I love the horn section, your vocals are most excellent and those girls sure know what to do!"

"I'm just going to go listen to this perfect noughat nugget of pop again."

"sp3ccymania!"

"What a great throwback while simultaneously remaining remarkably "today". I'll just round up what everyone else has said and second it: great hook, great lead vocal, great backing vocals, great arrangement."

Phew.
