DEXTER RELOADED - THE OKE KARAOKE

MUSIC - Throw Your Arms Around Me

Way, way back a bunch of friends of mine went to live in Australia for a while. When they came back they were raving about a band called Hunters and Collectors. Their first single was Talking To A Stranger and it was great. The next time i heard of them they came up with this song, which was recently voted the best Australian song of all time.

Can't argue with that.

I'm doing some recordings for a new album and I am running a Vox Heritage AC15 for the guitars, great little amp it is too. I was after a certain sound and I got it by running a modded TS9 tubescreamer into a non-bluesberry Hotcake then into the Vox. The sound was pretty much what I was after so I decided to do a demo of Throw Your Arms Around Me to see how the sound came out on record.

What do you reckon?

Throw Your Arms Around Me

[E]I will come for you at night[A]time
I will [E]raise you from your [B]sleep
I will [E]kiss you in four pla[A]ces
As I go [E]running along your [B]street

I will squeeze the life out of you
You will make me laugh and make me cry
And we will never forget it
You will make me call your name and
I'll shout it to the blue summer sky

{soc}
And we may [E]never meet a[A]gain
So [E]shed your skin and lets get [B]started
And you will [E]thr[A]ow your [B]arms around me
Yeah, you will [E]thr[A]ow your [B]arms around me
{c: Intro}
{eoc}

I dreamed of you at nighttime
And I watched you in your sleep
I met you in high places
I touched your head and touched your feet

So if you disappear out of view
You know i will never say goodbye
And though i try to forget it
You will make me call your name and
I'll shout it to the blue summer sky
