Ray Vanlanot bridges genres to bring a sound incorporating smooth elements of jazz and blues, edgy classic rock, subtle nuances of the singer/songwriter era and clever hooks of pop. Versatile in the performance of his various instruments, Ray has been described as a cross between James Taylor, Steve Winwood, Eric Clapton and Frank Sinatra. Ray's aim is to fill a void of substantitive musicianship while maintaining modern and classic sounds, to project such sounds into the ages.
Lyrics
Intro 4x through progression
Verse 1 Don’t forget to close the door,
If you found what you were looking for,
Cause you won’t be needing it anymore,
So why would it need to be open? Why would it need to be open?
Verse 2 Winter weather, grab your coat.
It’s much too cold, to sail your boat,
Cause in the ice, it cannot float.
So just leave your coat on the coat rack, leave your coat on the coat rack,
Chorus And you can look outside my window,
Look outside my window… Wee oo m doobie doo m doo.
Verse 3 I’ve got nothing to do today,
Writing the words that I should say,
But, hell, I can’t talk anyway,
So in the end I’m back where I started, I’m back where I started
Verse 4 Walk slow, why can’t you feel my heartbeat,
It’s probably cause it’s muffled by the sound of your feet, on my floor.
And open the door to get something to eat,
While my heart keeps beating faster, heart keeps beating faster,
Chorus So I look outside my window,
Look outside my window… Wee oo m doobie doo m doo.
Bridge Vocal interlude 4-part harmony with guitar solo
Verse 5(1) Don’t forget to close the door,
If you found what you were looking for,
Cause you won’t be needing it anymore,
So why would it need to be open? Why would it need to be open?
Verse 6(2) Winter weather, grab your coat.
It’s much too cold, to sail your boat,
Cause in the ice, it cannot float.
So just leave your coat on the coat rack,
Chorus And look outside my window,
Look outside my window… Wee oo m doobie doo m doo.
