I wish I had something new new to share, but I'm obsessed with my WK100 project, (see my profile) after nearly a year, I started after FAWM 2021 I need to keep pounding at it, and I figure 4 hours sweating over a hot re-mix/master, this qualifies as a song "finished during FAWM". :)
This started life in November 2014, and I'm sure it never sounded this good, but still while it's raw (and while my ears quit hurting) I'd love any feedback on production/performance/songcraft so I can wrap it up as #57 of the collection.
Thanks for your indulgence and any feedback that will make this better and finally "done"! :)
But don't worry I've got 2 brand newies that I've been dabbling with beside the project that I hope will be ready by end of month...
I hope you enjoy, after a few hours rest I'll get back to some awesome listening and repaying visits from my first song this month.
Hugs....
"Stink It Up! (Sweet Forever)" by Wolf Kier (wk057)

______
You got a love to give
I wanna take it
But every time I get me some
I make some mistakes
I say something stupid
I do something dumb
and I stink it up....
(I stink It up, baby)
How long sweet forever
are you gonna forgive me?
How long sweet forever
are you gonna keep giving me?
How long sweet forever
are you gonna give me a chance
When I stink it up
(Stink It up, baby!)
I stink it up, living on the edge of your love
I stink It up, baby, you're gonna give me up, yeah...
I stink it up. I stink it up. I stink it up, baby..
(bells)
It ain't broke but it don't tell the time no
If I can't love myself, how can I love someone else oh?
I got a tattoo on my heart, it bears your name
But baby I still stink it up.
(I stink it up, baby!)
How long sweet forever
are you gonna forgive me?
How long sweet forever
are you gonna keep giving me?
How long sweet forever
are you gonna give me a chance
When I stink it up, baby!
I stink it up, living on the edge of your love
I stink It up, baby, you're gonna give me up, yeah I
I stink it up. I stink it up. I stink it up, baby..
If I had all the time in the world
I could not work out how to please
I'm afraid to say, a word
in case I displease you
Could we find a way
To get along, get along get along (little doggy)????????
Some would say that I will never learn...
(solo)
I meant what I said when I said forever
If the world ends, baby, I hope we face it together
But I can't help myself I get the dance in my pants
and I stink It UP
(I stink it up, baby)
Sweet forever Can't you see I need you to stick with me.
Sweet forever, can't you see
Sweet forever, can't you see
Sweet forever, can't you see
Sweet forever - I'm gonna stink it up!
(I'm gonna stink it up)
I stink it up, living on the edge of your love
I stink It up, baby, you're gonna give me up.
I stink it up. I stink it up. I stink it up, baby..
I stink it up, living on the edge of your love
I stink It up, baby, you're gonna give me up.
I stink it up. I stink it up. I stink it up, baby..

Digging that tight bass sound in lock step with the drums. I like the sweeping synth. You've dialed it back perfectly to create the atmosphere without overwhelming the rest of the arrangement. The bells are a nice touch. Love that signature Wolf vocal delivery in full effect! This song has a great vibe and the rhythm section really propels it forward. I'd like to see the phrase "stink it up" switched up a bit here and there . . . pick it up, stick it up, rip it up, etc. . . . just to keep us on our toes, but keep the same phrasing that works so well. Getting the sense from these few listens so far that the WK100 project has really helped you hone in on a "sound" that's all your own! #tit4tat
@coolparadiso Feb 2022
Tit4tat. Oh those bells bring back memories. I like the way the lyrics fall out . Great live one this it has a soft marilyn manson feel here! Really good one
@jayjay Feb 2022
Once again great production and instrumentation . I like the playful lyrics. Your vocal styling works really well with this.

@andrea Feb 2022
Omg, I can't believe I have missed out on this until now. This rocks my world. The hook called to me! Love the lyrics. The bridge(?) is too freakin funny and awesome. The music is fun, and your vocals are perfecto!
@audrey Feb 2022
Very catchy and entertaining. Can't sit still to this. You got my foot a tappin' and my head bopping. Ha ha Love that beat. Love everything about this. This is definitely dance floor material.
@the3queens Feb 2022
This is completely delightful! Lyrics are great and the "stink it up" hook such a new take. The vocals and musical production are ready for airtime. What a refreshing song. I can see why you're getting that sweet forever. Love the " dance in my pants!" Seriously this just put a smile on my face!
@bradbrubaker Feb 2022
"Sweet forever" is such an imaginative pet name, especially in a song about how time feels like it's running out. I ike how the narrator seems to take pride in a way in the ways he might "stink it up." The wedding bells add a funny irony.
@lenigmusx1 Feb 2022
Yup this one grooves… I get the dance in my pants… the drum groove crushes especially the bass drum part. Chimes yes! I’m a percussionist first and chimes always work. Great tune Wolf!
@gm7 Feb 2022
I see your back on the dance floor. Ha, nice one Wolf. Sweet solo.
@katestantonsings Feb 2022
Valerie is right, Wolf. The way to appreciate the production and listen to this song is with a nice pair of headphones. So many goodies!! You're bass lines are always impeccable. Solid all-around!! Love.
@valeriecox Feb 2022
Your stuff is always great, but it's even more of a treat listening with headphones. It just sounds you and I get to hear even more details and those little extra you add in with stereo imaging. So cool!
@mrblitz000 Feb 2022
the mix has a great pump between kick/bass. instrumentation (bells?) is a journey. lyrics and vocals exist in their own wolfkier space..
@dzdandcunfsd Feb 2022
That opening bell salvo is a little hot, but.. I mean... does it need changed? I don't think so, especially since it seems to coincide about the same space that killer guitar line comes in later. That's just me looking at something to pick on :O) Super energetic and infectious. That gurlgle warbly whatever line is awesome, of course I'd love that louder, but afraid it would drown out some other things, probably some of the drums. Great track! If I've heard this one before it would of been in a marathon listen when I should have already taken a break. Don't remember it LOL.
@kahlo2013 Feb 2022
So catchy! This is a wonderfully apologetic love song! Great beat and layers. I like the chime sounds a lot. The hook is so strong and is delivered so well! This is definitely going to stick in my head.
@matthijs Feb 2022
Love the groovy bassline and the solo is a nice touch!
@marijequerida Feb 2022
As soon as I started listening, I started jamming! It's catchy and upbeat and groovy and I think the bells is such a nice extra.
@seemanski Feb 2022
Firstly, welcome back. I always love listening to your handy work and this is no exception, those bells are incredible. Also loved your bass lines and the guitar solo was sweet.
@ferry0123 Feb 2022
Wow, great mix, my friend. The energy in this... really nice! Maybe the bells at the start are just a tiny bit too loud? I don't know. Great work.
@williamjames Feb 2022
Your voice rocks this so hard! Nice groove and bassline. Very cool song!
@airbagtester Feb 2022
Really love those bells. I think the mix sounds awesome - very crisp and balanced, like a McIntosh apple!
@nahlej381 Feb 2022
This is dope. Kinda gives me the cars vibes (which I love) the bells are awesome. Solid production as usual! You’re over the halfway point! You got this
@richaaaay Feb 2022
Hey Wolf, this sounds great. I haven't heard this one before. It moves right along. I wish I could give some feedback other than kudos but I've got nothing to add. It sounds really crisp and clear, which I like.
@thedutchwidows Feb 2022
Love it. The bass and drums really push it along, and the vocal almost pulls it back, sitting into the rhythm. Makes a captivating listen. And that guitar solo - sweet as anything.
Please say that Then Comes Five is on your list to be remixed/remastered and put up this FAWM...? I've listened to it on so many occasions this last year - it's an absolute fave and I'd love to hear where you are with it.
@shutyatrap Feb 2022
Oh yeah I remember this too. It’s kicked up a gear. Great swagger to it now. It’s energy is contagious.
@writeandwrong Feb 2022
I remember this one!! I like it! This is smoother and it sparkles! You've done an amazing job with this, Wolf! Looking forward to hearing your new ones, too!!! <3
