Another BandLab lockdown project, but this time by just me, no collab. Now, you have to understand, I LOVE Latin music... like REALLY love it!! One of my first bands when I was 21 was a Latin tribute act. This track came from nowhere- I started messing around with some samples, and when I'd built the groove, out came these lyrics!
VERSE 1
You say you love me baby, but then you go and make me cry
You say I'm special then you give some other girl the eye
When we're together you don't cherish me and treat me right
And I don't appreciate the dumb excuses you supply
Interlude
VERSE 2
My girlfriends tell me that you're only lookin for a fling
They didn't know you when you promised me a diamond ring
Now when I call you never bother even answering
I think it's time to bite the bullet now and end this thing
CHORUS
Bye bye, oh did I stutter?
I said bye bye, not see ya later
I said bye bye, don't wanna date ya
I said bye bye, watch me walk away now!
Interlude
VERSE 3
It's time to walk away and turn my back on you today,
Watch me if you think I won't
Emotions fade away I don't believe a word you say,
Watch me if you think I don't
You had your chance with me I don't hear an apology
Watch me if you think I care
I'm gonna leave you now I don't forgive you anyhow
Watch me if you think you dare
CHORUS
Bye bye, oh did I stutter?
I said bye bye, not see ya later
I said bye bye, don't wanna date ya
I said bye bye, watch me walk away now!
BREAK
Ah-ay-ay
Ah-ay-ay
"Who do you think you are boy?
You think you're sooo fine... well guess what?"
CHORUS
Bye bye, oh did I stutter?
I said bye bye, not see ya later
I said bye bye, don't wanna date ya
I said bye bye, watch me walk away!
CHORUS
Bye bye, oh did I stutter?
I said bye bye, not see ya later
I said bye bye, don't wanna date ya
I said bye bye, watch me walk away now!
OUTRO
I didn't stutter, it's not complicated
I didn't stutter, yo-you're terminated
I didn't stutter, I-I'm liberated
I didn't stutter, I-I-I a-bye bye!

Some people know
me as 'The Ukulele Girl', some people know me for my band 'The Jenny Stevens Band' and some just know me as Jen the girl off BandLab!
I used to perform live before the world went crazy, but I've been getting my music fix collabing with musicians all over the world, recording both original songs and covers....more
There's quite a strong Fleetwood Mac vibe running through this EP, especially on the song Tell Me Now, and The Ticking Tide as well. These two solo artists, both already creators of wonderful music in their own rights, work beautifully together. I'm hoping for more great songs from them in the future. Storm of Crows
Welsh art-rock group HMS Morris make music full of plot twists; explosive, colorful rhythms can turn into shadowy introspection on a dime. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 22, 2020
