Hi Y'all!

After Perception we had a few calls for a happy song. Hopefully this fits the bill. We at least hope it will give you a few grins and get your foot tapping.

Mush alert! We also had a request for a song about love; from our self-professed most loyal fan. :kiss: Well since our songs are NEVER about love, :P we thought we might give that four letter word a go too. :) well it's about some four letter word at some point anyway. :)

By the way, the song is mostly due to a miserably wet and cold day. Apparently, it makes David's creativity go crazy. He had most of this song down in a weekend. Bonkers! B)

We hope you enjoy it.





Give Me A Sign (Emoji Song)

A smiley face, a cloud with rain

A car and a bus and an aeroplane

Yellow for the sun, silver for snow

I take them all with me wherever I go

If you want to make me happy

If you’re trying to please

Send me some of your emojis



A horse and a sheep and a cow and a pig

I’ll send them to you when your troubles seem big

The sea and the sky, the stars and the moon

When it’s your birthday i can send you balloons

If you want to make me happy

If you’re trying to please

Send me some of your emojis



A sign to go fast, a sign to go slow

A sign to show you which way to go

A bike and a tram and a ship and a truck

There’s even one that says ‘good luck’

If you want to make me happy

If you’re trying to please

Send me some of your emojis



A fish and a river and a tree and a lake

You can start on over if you make a mistake

A knife and a fork and a glass of wine

I’ll send them to you, you can have a good time

If you want to make me happy

If you’re trying to please

Send me some of your emojis



A sign on the window, a sign on the door

There’s a bell that rings when you walk on the floor

A sign at the back and a sign at the front

That says come inside, we’ve got whatever you want

If you want to make me happy (Yes it’s time)

If you’re trying to please (I know it’s time)

Send me some of your emojis (Give me a sign)



A heart for me and a heart for you

If i sent you three hearts would it make it come true?

A heart that looks like a valentine

You could send it to me to say you are mine

Best of all there’s a heart that beats

If i press this button i can make it repeat

It’s there for me and it’s there for you

I’ll keep it on my screen til the day it comes true..

If you want to make me happy (Yes it’s time)

if you’re trying to please (Your place or mine?)

send me some of your emojis (Give me a sign)

Just fantastic! Perfection. Loved the guitar work. Loved the rhythm. Loved the melody and backing vocals and the lyrics. How many tracks in total (and how many just for the backing vocals at the end)? Great work!

A fun, catchy tune for sure! I enjoyed watching and listening to this great piece. Was just thinking that if either of you ever perform this song at an open mic, you would need to have the video playing on stage with you. It is fun to watch for the next "emogi" to pop up on the screen. So, when you guys get your "Big Break" and are performing in front of 10,000 people live, remember to bring the video along for back up.

You two are on a roll.

whahhahhhahh!! :laugh:
This is definitely the best one ever, my favorite one on the upcoming album for sure!! :woohoo:
My smile won't go off of my face now, at least not for the whole weekend. Ab-so-lute-ly brilliant!

I just Love the lyrics, the music, the smileys, the noodles(?) :P , and the talk in between. :P
What can I say? I wish we had more emoticons to show our appreciation, because i've ran out of them... no clue where they all went? :blink:

:kiss: Shel, David, LOVED it big time :kiss:
Corina.

p.s. I hope David will have another rainy day... someone's gotta do the job, right? ;) :laugh:
(quickly back to another run of the emoji's)
