Artist picture
Trash-pop, guitar rock and melodic miscellany.
Not so much a band as a bloke with a guitar and a laptop, The Smivets deliver a genre-bending blend of pop, rock, punk, prog and many other monosyllables.

Story behind the song
Had great fun with this - experimenting with feedback, strange sounds and odd chord progressions. Hopefully the end result still has a groove to it.
Lyrics
You smiled and said hello about every day I didn't really think about you that way It turned into a drink or two You know how things start But the briefest touch of your hand on mine Sent a shock right through my heart Your touch is like electricity Your touch is like electricity Electricity I can't breathe and my limbs are shaky So come on baby, defibrillate me Jump start my lifeless heart My puppet body jolts As your shock dynamo fingers give me 50000V Your touch is like electricity Your touch is like electricity When everything starts to itch Palpitations, eyelids twitch I need you to flick my switch It don't take much Just your touch Wait Your touch is like electricity Your touch is like electricity When everything starts to itch Palpitations, eyelids twitch I need you to flick my switch It don't take much Just your touch

Magnificent work. Nice aggressive mood. Great creation for certain. I like your collab with Michael Duran.:) It's on his new collab page that you joined up with. Great music.

This is totally friggin' awesome!! Hard driving smack a beat with a nice jangly feel. Wonderful pop with a nice edge!

Ah..the Adrian Belew side of you is showing a bit mate. ;) Solid track and the strange noise is a bonus!

I hope you're going to apologise to your neighbours for cranking it up to 11, lol :D Superb in-your-face rock, great stuff on the guitars and top notch vocals. Sounds like another hit to me ;)
