Jah Mon!----Here's a little horror for Halloween....A gift that keeps giving all year 'round.... (Changed up the vocals and added my percussion track...It's a bit more of what I had in mind!)https://www.reverbnation.com/ihor/song/26897326-zombie-loveZombie LoveWords/Music ©I. Wolosenko 2016 Vocals - Igg Lead guitar/Bass - Tony Di Gregorio Guitar - Igg Verse 1 She was a soft summer breeze, drifting through my life I was hoping she would stay with me, maybe be my wife But she told me we were never meant to be, and then blew away I took my broken love and buried it that day in a deep dark grave Chorus Zombie love..............A love that never happened Zombie love ............ dreams won't go away Zombie love ..............you keep coming for me, coming for me Coming back to break my heart again ...and again ... and again... and again Verse 2 I can be walking down a boulevard,... It's a sunny day Here comes a girl that looks like her, Zombie love springs to life again And every night when I go to sleep, it's waiting in my dreams I'm waking up in cold dark sweat ,my head is filled with screams Chorus Verse 3 I try to reason with my heart ....but it won't obey Though it was such a long time ago,.... seems like yesterday Why can't you go away ... leave me alone, before I go insane I need to find myself another girl so I can heal this pain Chorus Zombie love...............A love that never happened Zombie love ..............Dreams won't go away Zombie love ..............I am bleeding for you Bitter tears and howling pain Zombie love..............I keep running from you, running from you Zombie love ..............Rising from the grave Zombie love ..............You keep coming for me, coming for me Coming back to break my heart again ...and again ... and again... and again

Made for Halloween! I thought I heard a Jimmy Buffet influence. Maybe, maybe not.

Hi Tony and Iggy2, I like the reggae vibe that's not pure, but mixes with some Spanish feel, especially in the chorus. Great hook. "Zombie love" almost writes itself, though it could've been silly--about zombies getting it on, but you make "zombie love" a metaphor and rigorously work it and it's fresh and funny and sweet all at once, and a bit harrowing, too. I mean--it just won't go away, you know? Enjoyable all the way around.  Mike

Oh yeah Iggy---love it! That "Zombie Love" is a real earworm.
If writing ever becomes work I think I'm going to have to stop

Thanks....Glad you enjoyed it...I enjoyed making it but it was a bit tricky...took a while to get all of the elements to sound good together....

Travis,
Thanks....I still think "The Harder They Come" was a great film and really broke out Reggae into the world at large....
