This Is My Big Night - Rapider Than Horsepower

Advantages: A Passionate Desire, May Burn A Gem-Like Fire...

...& Cher 'I Got You, Babe'" namby-pamby according to Ray, so Densmore used his drums to spice it up with a Latin groove. The melody line begins on an A minor then shifts to an F# minor and ends on an E, before the 1st verse picks up the 1st chorus. Ray starts an "A minor to B minor" bass line in a "4," that continues throughout the remainder of the tune. Robby wrote the first verse: VERSE 1: "You know that it would be untrue; You know that I would be a liar If I was to say to you Girl we couldn't get much higher" VERSE 1 [Translated:] It would be a complete load of bollocks for us to attempt to rationalize our settling for anything less than the unimaginable romantic bliss and sexual ecstasy I know our union would enable. 1ST CHORUS: Come on baby light my fire Come on baby light my fire Try to set the night on fire...

...The latest instalment of Matchbox Twenty… The long awaited third album from the band. The media attention has slowly grown around the band in America and other countries around the globe and with the climatic release of the unusual track “Disease” it seems that Matchbox Twenty’s popularity has never been better. So many artists release albums and singles and such an intoxicating rate that they become boring and dated very quickly, Matchbox Twenty I have to say are NOT a victim of such an injustice. The band slowly pumps out albums and singles and in the 7 years they have been around they have released only three albums – Yourself or Someone Like You, Mad Season, and now “More Than You Think You Are”.
