Hit Record: By Andrew Reist

when I'm looking at you now
It's hard for me even to shout
Cause in your eyes there's doubt
Do you even wanna be here at all?

Got to let my heroes out
Never thought I could live without you now
But in your eyes there's doubt
Wake up and smell the flowers it's over now
It's over now

I hope that you feel ashamed
Cause your new gig is a total disgrace
Take your time in this place
But pack your bags
Cause we want a new face
A new face

(metalish break)

When I hear of new release
I'm just the first one out the door
But your new game's a piece
And I won't play it anymore

Got to let my heroes out
Never thought I could live without you now
But in your eyes there's doubt
Wake up and smell the flowers it's over now
It's over now

I hope that you feel ashamed
Cause your new gig is a total disgrace
Take your time in this place
But pack your bags
Cause we want your old face

(latin/clappy bridge) - change of genre

Selling out
Never felt so good before this one
You're in hell
Cause an artist'll feel it for this one

(heavy break)

note: the metalish and heavy breaks were written into the song as a part of the challenge, but I feel as though the latin/clappy bridge is ultimately what fulfills it.

The song never explicitly says 'hit record', but it is entirely based off my disgust at my favorite artists selling out to make hit records. Bonus points if you can guess which artist I was thinking of while writing it!

you rule man!i have to admit that, at the beginning of the competition, i just wasn't into that style of music. i must say that you have made me a fan. great use of the challenge! you managed to genre hop while still keeping your style. the hop didn't seem out of place at all. i'm definitely going to save this track. great mix. i really like your drums on this song. you could totally be the nur ein.
