Description Hey hey...so let's talk Music, animation and the arts....oooh baby you gotta let me just create, and impress the coach, you know, lou Reed knew right?...anyways... i'll be brief because the Song, ''Vanity Race'' is a bit of a Touchy Subject because it concerns everyone, and it's hard not to offend if you're writing a song about Addictions, disorders, obsessions, Mantra's, shallow, Superficialness in this modern dopamine society.....i was like that once...an Addict to social norms online and offline..until i looked up and saw all that wider open space.....man, and i played good for the coach...

Breathing a Sigh of Relief and just grabbing my old Guitar, you know, trying to remain, Like we all do, Creative, Artsy, like all you lucky, lucky, artists, photo hounds, Free thinkers, painters, poets, bohemians, preachers, saints sinners and even the one wearing the glasses ! you know? being active - seeing if my vocal pipes were firing on all cylinders, adding a drum Section, then Pondering on all those minor spectrums of Addictions and Distractions that we all may or may not be aware of,  it’s not as simple as being an addict or not being an addict right, we take minor Addictions for granted in everything we do.... online social media for instance, how many times do we watch tiktok?, or post on Twitter, FB, instagram? Watch a YouTube vid?, . is it deemed worthy to completely take control of our life, if you allow it too?... can we handle these minor Addictions?, maybe it ''significantly interferes” with our routines and distorts our ability to function?.....ah ha!...now that's the plan isn't it - for us all to be Dopamine addicts to online social media..maybe?.. do you ever ask yourself the obvious philosophical question '' the time I’m spending on my phone, laptop is it affecting my ability to be normal, do i follow what everyone is doing?, am i just part of this Dopamine nation,....so i wrote the Song, no big production, just me, guitar, drums and the question....with Animation of course. 

The Animation that buddies up to the Song, was created by an award winning science producer and motion graphics designer Pierangelo Pirak.

The Lyrics to Vanity Race

When there's nothing more with words, that i can sing,
and there's nothing more that i can do,
and after i broke out of my vacant mind,
i finally sort out all the fiction from truth.

I'm not gonna follow, maniacal mantras'
I'm not gonna follow, no Psychotic creed 
no Classist delusion, no jesus confusion,
no liberalised snowflake, protesting in safe space.

i'm on the first Strike
i just woke up with a mean look on my face,
those 1st world flunkies caught up in the grind,
they all competing in the vanity race.

Social media junkies with their selfies and their likes.
got the trending status insanity,
all that thumping and that twerking
all that bucking and that jerking,
got them triggered on that NME

I'm not gonna follow, some self-righteous Guru,
i'm not gonna follow, those paranoid freaks, 
no Classist delusion, no jesus confusion,
no liberalised snowflake, protesting in safe space.

i'm on the first Strike
i just woke up with a mean look on my face,
those 1st world flunkies gotta lot to hide
they all competing in the vanity race.

i'm on the first Strike
i just woke up with a mean look on my face,
those 1st world flunkies caught up in the grind,
they all competing in the vanity race.

First world funky, crazy monkey, liberal snowflake, media junkie,
Selfie status, PC races, Don't stop trending, don't stop trending, Don't stop trending,

First world funky, crazy monkey, liberal snowflake, media junkie,
Selfie status, PC races, Don't stop trending, don't stop trending, ooooh, Don't stop trending, ooooh, Don't stop trending, ooooh,

weeeoooh,

Were all competing in the Vanity race, were all competing in the vanity race, were all competing in the vanity race,

Weeeoooh.

thank for listening if you stop by, and headphones are preferred.
