Kewl vibe for driving down the highway for sure!!!

It puts me at an outdoor, on-the-beach, hotel bar somewhere in the Caribbean...drinking a Jack-&-Coke that has an umbrella in it...just for decoration.  ;D

Rob Thomas for sure. Definitely recalls "Smooth." Love that song.
Lyrics are fine, nothing groundbreaking, but they get the point across.

For me. the tonal modality of the song is something that I never get tired of enjoying. "Latin Rock."
IMHO, the music and the lyrics are a real good coupling and provide an enjoyable listen.
Penetrating song art too.

I'm glad that you posted it. Site enhancer. Consider me a new fan.  ;D

Hi all:

I thought I'd put my song Vexxed up for review....

And yea, if you're wondering, I copped a Rob Thomas Santa vibe here...in part because if I was planning to perform again, I have the vocal range of Rob.  I am a multi-instrumentalist and have played for almost 60 years so I can play all the instruments here...but I did use Suno to produce it.

Lyrics:

Vexxed

[Verse 1]
There's something in your eyes
And the way you looked at me
You got me paralyzed
With anxiety

Everything around you
Fades into obscurity
There's nothing I could do
You're entrancing me

[Prechorus]
I feel my heartbeat faster and time's standing still I can't move my feet
I can't take my eyes off of you give the rest of my life for one night spent with you

[Chorus]
From the moment that we met I knew I was through
One look at you there was nothing I could do
I can't breathe I can't sleep when I think of you
Under your spell overwhelming me I'm vexxed by you

[Verse 2]
Enveloping my soul
Feel you taking over me
I'm losing all control
Am I in too deep?

You touched me and I'm done
Feel my free will slip away
There's nowhere I can run
Wouldn't anyway

[Prechorus]
I feel my heartbeat faster and time's standing still need to feel your heat
I can't take my eyes off of you give the rest of my life for one night spent with you

[Chorus]
From the moment that we met I knew I was through
One look at you there was nothing I could do
I can't breathe I can't sleep all I dream is you
Under your spell overwhelming me I'm vexxed
From the moment that we met I knew I was through
One look at you there was nothing I could do
I would lie I would cheat I would steal for you
Under your spell overwhelming me I'm vexxed by you

[Prechorus]
I feel my heartbeat faster and time's standing still I can't move my feet
I can't take my eyes off of you give the rest of my life for one night spent with you

[Chorus]
From the moment that we met I knew I was through
One look at you there was nothing I could do
I would lie I would cheat I would steal for you
Under your spell overwhelming me I'm vexxed
From the moment that we met I knew I was through
One look at you there was nothing I could do
I can't breathe I can't sleep all I dream is you
Under your spell overwhelming me I'm vexxed by you
