One of the Top 5 hymns of the 80's that perfectly describes 80's...Those who were teenagers in the 80's knows what I'm talking about,right my generation? :0)

Our dad would send us to our room He'd be the voice of doom He said that we would thank him later All day he was solid as a rock But by 8 o' clock We'd be crumbling 1 night My brother Joe and me Climbed down the family tree That grew outside our bedroom window We ran though we knew it couldn't last Running from the past From things that we were born to be Looking back it's so bizarre It run in the family All the things we are On the back seat of the car With Joseph and Emily We only see so far And we all have our daddy's eyes Looking back it's so bizarre Dad rang the officer in charge A man so large He barely fit his circumstances He said 2 kids out on the street Were picked up on the beat And in the station So there's me With Emily and Joe Daddy driving home All heading in the same direction He knew no matter what the breaks We'd make the same mistakes Couldn't take his eyes of Joe and me Looking back it's so bizarre It runs in the family All the things we are On the backseat of the car With Joseph and Emily We only see so far And we all have our daddy's eyes Looking back it's so bizarre It runs in the family All the things we are Looking back it's so bizarre Like a dream within a dream We're all somewhere in between Like a drummer plays his drum Like a father like a son And your gonna have to face the music Hey hey We keep it running in the family Hey hey We keep it coming in the family Looking back it's so bizarre It runs in the family All the things we are On the backseat of the car With Joseph and Emily We only see so far 'Cause we all have our daddy's eyes Take me back into your arms It's no longer a mystery There's no cause for alarm Could have never come this far With no sense of history It always leaves a scar And we all have our daddy's eyes Looking back it's so bizarre Running in the family Running in the family And we all have our daddy's eyes Looking back it's so bizarre hey

I love the lyric "a man so large he barely fit his circumstances"

[@juanete838]

@@kellygallagher7148 yes it's nice I wonder what the hell this lyrics mean. Seems deep.

[@Hulk2k6]

@@juanete838 The original song was about a Science Geek but Mark changed the lyrics to make it more relatable.

Obligatory "30 people know nothing about music" comment. But seriously, what a riff. Great stuff and great musicianship. That slap bass is popping.

[@didiercoverbass3126]

Hello Mark, I am a 56-year-old young French bassist, I started in May 2021 thanks to lessons and tutorials on KZbin, I really like the slap, but I have a lot of trouble mastering it, even soon with my 2 year old bass. I have an Ibanez 5 string, I do not know if it is suitable for slap. And yet I still played a few titles in the 80s when I was a DJ in a nightclub in France. I appreciate the way you practice the bass. I pull my hair out when I try to slap, it doesn't sound as good as I would like. Friendships from France.

[@lewisdraper2858]

It's a completely different type of music but the bassist in 'Korn" plays amazing slappadabass 😊
