    Verse 1]
    You tell me this town ain't got no heart
    The sunny side of the street is dark
    Maybe that's because it's midnight, in the dark of the moon besides
    Maybe the dark is from your eyes
    Maybe the dark is from your eyes
    Maybe the dark is from your eyes
    You know you got such dark eyes!
    [Chorus]
    Nothing shaking on Shakedown Street
    Used to be the heart of town
    Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart
    You just got to poke around
    [Verse 2]
    You think you've seen this town clear through
    Nothing here that could interest you
    It's not because you missed out on the thing that we had to start
    Maybe you had too much too fast
    Maybe you had too much too fast
    Maybe you had too much too fast
    Or just over played your part
    [Chorus]
    Nothing shaking on Shakedown Street
    Used to be the heart of town
    Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart
    You just got to poke around

      yungsavagesleeper It could be a Synth9 by Electro-Harmonix. Not sure.

    • @chrisd3852
      @chrisd3852 5 років тому

      pretty sure its a fuzz pedal, put through a small stone phaser or univibe clone.

    @billmcintosh220 4 роки тому

    The bass line sounds like it's running away from being buttered by the guitar. He's like "That shit ain't Irish Kerry Gold. It's PARKAY!!!!!!" Maybe I had to much to fast. I better cool it down.

    • @kostakos1331
      @kostakos1331 8 років тому

      +Kostas Papadopoulos Guys, are you kidding me? This is not even close to Multi Love mixing/mastering wise. Here it's super clean and you can hear all the different layers like a top 50 song. I'm not saying it's bad thing, it's just different.

      @tubebeaver1 8 років тому

      Yup I think you're right, straight into the computer on this one maybe? Sounds like a drum loop (which is fine). I'm actually kinda digging that UMO and Silicon are starting to melt together into some kind of amorphous new thing - check out the new UMO single "First World Problem" to hear what I mean.

  • @tubebeaver1
    @tubebeaver1 8 років тому +7

    The Dead sucked and will always suck.
    No amount of drugs could ever convince me that any of their music was worth my time to listen to.
    It takes a band as good as UMO to make one of their songs actually be awesome.

    • @hippiecheezburger5457
      @hippiecheezburger5457 8 років тому +7

      +tubebeaver1 I'm not sayin I'm some deadhead but dude Jerry Garcia played some amazing guitar just as good as other great players like Clapton or somebody, the dead explored so many styles and made those styles their own as well, UMO is influenced by the grateful dead and plenty other bands of that era it seems and I love their songs too because I like those styles of music that have all branched off each other, sorry for my rant

    • @tubebeaver1
      @tubebeaver1 8 років тому +1

      Yeah, right?! I actually had the temerity to express an opinion I formulated based on 40 years of active listening. How dare I demonstrate any kind of individuality or ability to discern mediocre music from the truly sublime. Next time I say anything about music, I’ll make sure I’ve got legions of people who all like the same thing for reasons they can’t even clearly express backing me up! Thanks! Long live the Mean Hippies!
