How 'Bout Tonite (Pre-Production)
Makin' love to you I could never do enough, and I don't get embarrassed with all that mushy stuff...so "How 'Bout Tonite?"
Performer/Songwriter
Hey everybody! I'm Jerry Flattum, Performer/Songwriter.
The recordings you are listening to are in Pre-Production, a fancier way of saying "demo." I'm currently working on getting up the financing to re-record and master several recordings in preparation for commercial release.
Nothing drives me nuts more than knowing how these tunes will sound with new arrangements and a top notch mix/master. There's alot of color missing from the current recordings, but most of all guitar and backup vocals. Live drums and new keyboard samples will really bring the arrangement to life too.
Two of the songs feature "hired guns" (session players). Tim Thompson did the guitar and mix on "My Little Girl," a Country/Rock ballad. Thompson is a finger style champion and when he let's loose on uptempo rockers he rivals the best pickers I've ever heard.
Stephen Sea knocked out his own arrangement of "Best Place Around" and topped it off with some amazing guitar work.
Virtual instruments and sampling technology will be heavily used in the new recordings.
Once the recordings are finished, with sufficient financing and backing, I'm planning a global tour with a stage show that includes dancers, acting, stage design, lighting and costuming.
Story behind the song
Sex is great when it's spontaneous. But there's a special thrill when you plan ahead. Of course, it helps if things are so hot you know there won't be any excuses when lovin' time rolls around.
The recording is in pre-production, being re-arranged and mastered in preparation for commercial release.
Lyrics
HOW 'BOUT TONITE
What did you think about last nite?
Was it all right? Was it good for you too?
Everything I said to you, it was true, oh so true.
You know about the games people play,
a man can be shrewd to get his own way.
And a woman can be sweet, a sexy baby doll.
Given just a taste-when you hunger for it all.
And you know, when the music gets into your soul,
tryin' to take our time, then passion takes control.
Fantasies of a faraway, exotic place,
feelings runnin' wild, laughin' thru the chase.
HOW 'BOUT TONITE, when we get home,
we'll make mad passionate love when we're alone.
HOW 'BOUT TONITE, when we get home,
we'll make mad passionate love...
And when the morning sun rolls around,
will we say goodbye to this love we found?
Or is it just a dream, this longing for romance?
Finding it's for real, so we had to take the chance.
And you know, when the music gets into your soul,
tryin' to take our time then passion takes control.
Fantasies of a faraway, exotic place,
feelings runnin' wild, laughin' thru the chase.
HOW 'BOUT TONITE, when we get home,
we'll make mad passionate love when we're alone.
HOW 'BOUT TONITE, when we get home,
we'll make mad passionate love...
Candlelight shadows dancing in your hair.
The smell of sandalwood floating in the air.
I feel like Casanova pouring on the charm,
words and touches turn off every alarm.
Like a sip of wine when it goes to the head,
we start to get crazy then find ourselves in bed.
Making love to you, I could never do enough,
and I don't get embarrassed with all that mushy stuff.
HOW 'BOUT TONITE, when we get home,
we'll make mad passionate love when we're alone.
HOW 'BOUT TONITE, when we get home,
we'll make mad passionate love...
Adlibs:
Yeah, just you and me,
mad passionate love.
HOW 'BOUT TONITE,
when we get home?
Mad passionate love.
HOW 'BOUT TONITE?
Just you and me.
