Lyrics:
turn off the record player
and drop that 45
little thing i wanna say
baby you blow my mind
i hope to meet you later
when we step out tonight
other girls are overrated
but baby, you're so fly...
i can say that i want ya
i'll be your soldier
on a mission for you
any day without you
makes my heart feel so sorry
baby don't worry, worry girl...
As true as the stardust in your eyes
there's only one way to paradise
stuck in my mind like my favourite song
you keep me dancing, dancing, dancing -
til the lights come on...
you see the man before you
he'll give you anything
i'm standing in your corner
fight for you, always win
and when the night gets colder
and if you're far from home
i can be your crying shoulder
baby you're not alone
i can say that i want ya
i'll be your soldier
on a mission for you
any day without you
makes my heart feel so sorry
baby don't worry, worry girl...
As true as the stardust in your eyes
there's only one way to paradise
stuck in my mind like my favourite song
you keep me dancing, dancing, dancing -
til the lights come on...
When i'm on the track, when i'm on the track
it's you
when i'm laying back, when i'm laying back
it's you
when we're doin' that, when we're doin' that
it's you
whooooooooo!!
[Chorus out....]
Words and Music - Rai Thistlethwayte and Lee McCutcheon
Ten years later I’m still jamming to this regularly. Amazing work, man. Next level good
They always say humans can't really multitask, but this video proofs otherwise. I'm simply speechless on how you can play the bass, the piano and sing all at the same time….amazing!!!!!
check about automatization of tasks. Human brain is awesome!
Yes! I was amazed when I first saw this video too! good job Sun Rai!
Truly criminal that this version only exists on UA-cam! Release this track on streaming/to purchase!
thank you! track is not yet for sale - stay tuned! I'm doing a show at School Night in LA on March 25th. Details are on my FB page /iamsunrai
thanx for listening and being a fan! :)
Someone please do an MRI scan of his brain when he plays both piano, keyboards and sing at the same time. You are just extraordinary!
not to mention the bass line,,,
And to whomever does the MRI scan, please also scan Esperanza Spalding while she is playing upright bass while scat singing. JFC!
This is what I call talent.
i call it skill
Yes, I agree. Only practice, I think can't do like him. Also his voice is very nice.
People like Rai with Jazz roots always write the best pop songs. What an amazing talent!
It is such a crime that this hasn't had more views/likes.
Yea this gonna have to be known more than now literally🙏
This guy has several brains in his head...his sense of harmony, rhythm and lyrics, and his ability to produce quality music 'on the fly' has no parallel
You are a musical genius! I don't understand why you're not as famous as the artists of today :(
Best keep that way so that only we can enjoy his music.
XD
Because his music is too profound for others to comprehend.
... let time do it's work!
better than justin bierbier
Quality isn’t for the masses, particularly when it comes to music.
I love the combo of the grand piano and the keyboard, a very groovy track and your vocals are spot on. You are one of the best Australian music talents.
This is potentially the greatest thing ever. Better than puppies and ice cream combined.
idk bout you but puppy ice cream is pretty high up there
@@radensatriadewanto haha nice
I love how your playing just exudes love for music in general. It's not just talent, it's not just hard work... it's the passion. You are just an exceptional performer. Inspiring af.
Who needs a professional studio when you can produce gold like this.
thank u and thank u for ur support!
Unfreaking believable Rai! Just shared to everyone I know. I think I broke the repeat button.
thanx man! thank u for your support :)
thx for coming out and supporting!!
This is just masterpiece 🥹
I love your song ..
I'm from thailand
fighting !!
The bass hand seems to be on autopilot while Rai sings and plays the lead. This guy is truly a remarkable musician!
In these day's popular culture , how many singers have this musician's gift ?
In 70's , 80's , singers were musicians generally.
But now , singers just singers...
This guy is totally musician singer!!👏👏
Such a vintage sound. True Talent
Your soul, your music, no difference. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Rai, you got me dying bruh. Love your fkin ‘delicious’ chords and vibes you put in your music. Keep it rolling bruh!
thanx :) glad u could make it!
So glad you posted this video. It was amazing to watch you vanish into your music. It's as if you started out as a guy, and then thirty seconds later, you had become a whirlwind of music. Awesome.
He's in Hoboken, NJ tomorrow saturday...cant wait to see this guy amd Bernhoft...its gonna rock so hard
I really like this. Any chance on an NPR Tiny Desk Concert? that would be killer.
thank u for listening! :)
WHO ON THE FACE OF THIS EARTH COULD DISLIKE THIS.
First I listened to this while doing my work with my browser minimized. I enjoyed the music so much that it liften up my mood. The I heard the bass line 4:38, and kinda wondered who is this dude who played the bass. Never I thought that he was doing one-man performance. Then I rewatched the whole video from the beginning, glad I do. I really enjoyed your music! Keep up the passion!
for sure!
You, my friend, are a legend.
Thanks cam ;) ( and others!!)
Rai you can do no wrong, you just keep getting better and better, and i already thought you were the best. Much respect, come home to oz soon. take care

Unbelievable flow in the bass-hand and in the singing, and I love this piano-groove-style! But from one man!!!😮❤ Is there a Club Remix from this?
thanx! :) hope to see you at a show sometime.
thanx :)
Heard you on KCRW yesterday. Then I promptly got drunk but I still remembered your name because the host spelled it out over the air. This is fantastic, love the boogie bass.
That was excellent!
That is an AWSOME song!!!!!!! - It is gonna be my new dancefloor hit :) - THANK YOU!!
ha thanx!!
thanx man! thank u for listening :)
Rai you are one bad boy! We have something in common,...I also play left-handed key bass, and for years I've also had people ask how do I do both at the same time. I've explained, grow up listening to Stevie Wonder, Herbie Hancock, George Duke, P-Funk, and Prince and of course, be blessed by God, and the rest just falls into place. Keep jammin' brotha'. 😎
seriously phat groove right there!
Thank u!! lovely to meet u too! Great studio! :)
I saw you open for Bernhoft in West Hollywood and I don't know who I enjoyed more!
I bought a CD from you that night and haven't stop grooving
by the way your left hand is nuts!
I just played this video though three times. Wow. Just wow. Thanks for sharing what you have, Rai.
