A real poppy, Beach Boys type song. One of the very first songs I ever wrote most of. The story is interesting, please read it.

catchy rock??? Listen for yourself.
Welcome, there isn't much to say that would make you understand what I do better than just letting you know who I am, which is Jay. I'm the kind of guy who would rather stay inside and write then go outside and play, forever. I'm the kind of guy who falls in love with almost everything, finds it hard to capture it all in a song so has to keep on going. I may be wrong but for me, a good songwriter can't be one that sits back and smells the coffee and relaxes, a real songwriter is basically (in a nice way) tormented by creation, and that is me.

Story behind the song
My cousin was in love with Vic, of course she was, he was a great guy, if he wasn't so great I wouldn't have written this song. Ok, skipping along, Vic played piano and wrote songs as a hobby, 'Jingles' he called them. I heard one of these 'Jingles' and loved it. OK, fast forward to me in a van with Vic's parents, he's had a brain aneurysm and is flying above us in an air ambulance, barely alive. I had the urge to write, so I grabbed my notebook and started writing this song (it was completely dark in the van and I couldn't really see the page but I knew what I was writing). I got to the hospital and finished it. To put an end to the story, Vic didn't make it, he passed away after a few weeks. The melody of the verses in this song is his melody, it was one of his 'jingles', hence the title of the song. I hope you like it.
Lyrics
I'm going away but I don't need a suitcase I'm planning a trip, pretty soon I'll be free don't worry bout me, I'll be fine where I'm goin I'm keepin your memory with me The days have been fine sittin here in the sunshine I have no complaints, I've had fun for a while I do what I do, havin you right beside me Just satisfied makin you smile So keep holdin on and I'll keep holdin out till you're here with me although it feels all wrong, it'll be alright baby wait and see I'm finally free, feel my heart beatin stronger I'm over the rainbow, I'll never be stopped you know I'll be lovin you always and longer cause you and me just can't be topped So for now so long I'll just take my time till you catch up with me I'm where I belong all I need is a song and your melody (x2) I'm heading out now and I'm done with goodbyin I'll see you again don't know when but I will the traffic is light, what a great night for flyin if you're thinkin I'll miss you I will la da da da
