A nice 90s style pop song. Originally by a band called, The Ocean Blue. Although they're an American band, I do think that they sound either English or Scottish on the strength of this song. Nice

Major Snagg is the invented name of the 'band' that perform all my own musical creations. (songs and instrumentals). I play guitars, bass, rudimentary keyboards, harmonica, and sing. Melody has always been important to me... lyrics and guitar solos have to say or communicate something. I create musical worlds that I hope that you dear listener, will also want to explore and live in for a few moments...or longer if you feel that way inclined.

Story behind the song
A song by US band, The Ocean Blue. They're from Hershey PA. There are some nice chorused sweeping chords (based on C and G chords) that make an interesting 'hook'. A big thank you to Cindy for being my cover girl for this song :-)... "you don't look a day older than when I first saw you". You always were more innocent and wholesome looking than Barbie. :-)
Lyrics
Ballerina Out Of Control by The Ocean Blue (1991) Her world came crashing down And all that it contained A million pieces of dreams Coming apart at the seams But she twists and she whirls Dismissing it away, Wasn't quite the same as it was Yesterday Her night begins the day Why think when we can play "I find it so hard to find, A certain dress of that kind" As she twists and she whirls And she dances it all away, The problems persist, they won't Go away She twists and she whirls Dancing it all away, Would rather see the night Than the reason of the day instrumental break I find it so hard to find any reason, to this kind As she twists and she whirls And she dances it all away, The problems persist, they won't Go away She twists and she whirls Dancing it all away, Would rather see the night Than the reason of the day instrumental to fade-out

I remember you mentioning this band to me and they were from Hershey never heard of them. But you’ve done a great cover and like the chorus guitar. I’ll have to check them out. Good work.

You really do have a knack of highlighting songs that have slipped under most people's radar! Superb job on the guitar work, instrumentation and arrangement - top notch production! Glad you've made this one a hit!

It's The Major! Just gets better and better. Great work, mate. Love it! I've featured this. I won't be resting long, I imagine.
