about

I love this style of music – pseudo RnB (the old style RnB of course) if you like.

Anne Cozean kindly agreed to do some "girlie chorus" stuff for me on this. Anne knows how much I appreciate her helping out on my tunes, and hopefully has a bit of fun at the same time.

All instruments are me (the kit was played in, drum by drum, hihat by hihat, cymbal by cymbal on my trusty Yamaha PSR300 midi keyboard, as were the horns and B3).

It refers to musicians ability to play by “feel” rather than having to have chord charts or script in front of them.

lyrics

Feel The Beat
© 2009 Neil Porter

You want to do it, you try so hard
Want things to come naturally
Turn up the radio
Put on a CD
You can get there just feel the beat
Close your eyes
Feel the beat
Move your body ‘til the groove locks in yeah
Clap your hands
Move your feet
When this song ends you can do it all again

You can’t write it on a sheet of paper
Don’t have to read it from a cold white page
Just listen closely let the music take you
Take a chance, leave your cage
It’s time to let your heart take over
The muse is calling, you can tag along
Close your eyes don’t run for cover
Lose yourself in every song

Don’t start out with inhibitions
Leave your left brain at the door
Loosen up
Move with the music
Slide and sway and let the good times roll

Grab the moment
Take a chance
Kick off your shoes, get up and dance
Don’t stop moving
Wait and see
Close your eyes and feel the beat
