When we are bored...we should help somebody...

Made the shortlist at the Australian Songwriters Association 28th Contest

Music & lyrics Vincenzo Pandolfi
© copyright 2008

I was lying on my old couch
Feeling kind of lazy
Bored with the world
And listening to my radio
When this song came along
And it said….

Have you seen the old man?
Who lives down the road
In the old old house
At the corner of the street
Have you spoken to him lately

He lives alone…He lives alone

Have you asked him how he feels
If he needs a little help
Does he need a lift or something else
So here is what to do….

If you are bored help somebody
There’s much to do in this world
How could you be so bored
Something is missing from inside you

If you are bored help somebody
Someone needs a hand
How could you be so bored
Something is missing from inside you

Look around…just look around…

Have you seen the old woman
Who lives just down the road
She walks slowly up the hill
Feeds the birds down the park
Have you spoken to her lately
She lives alone….She lives alone

Have you asked her how she feels
If she needs a little help
Does she need a lift or something else
So here is what to do….

If you are bored help somebody
There’s much to do in this world
How could you be so bored
Something is missing from inside you

If you are bored help somebody
Someone needs a hand
How could you be so bored
Something is missing from inside you

Look around…just look around…

ALtErNaTiVe ReTrO aNd PsYcHeDeLiC
A strange melodic eccentric late 60s style pop song-Its great melodic quirkiness and small town characters storytelling reminds me of really early Bee Gees and Mark Wirtz Teenage Opera,which is of course totally fine by me..


NOT FOR SALE
Vincenzo is a breath of fresh air ... and that cannot be bought ...


STEVE ISONS IAC DIARY....
11.2.2008...I heard this first responding to a thread Vincenzo had up wondering if the tune was lifted from somewhere else..I'm so glad i listened.There was another thread going round about the Grammys-and i thought this songs got more heart,melody and creativity than anything that was performed by all the multi-platinum selling artists there..Of course its very 60s influenced-but the reason i love 60s music so much isn't specifically 'cos of the 'sound',but because the songs were so much more richly imaginative,evocative and generous-spirited then,like this..The delightful key change from the verse,the sense of freedom and unselfconscious in the writing and voice-the genuinelly joyful chorus that invites you inwardly to singalong.How rare are those qualities nowadays? As there's only me and one other person who's added this lovely song to their stations, i'm guessing its not to many peoples taste..People seem to prefer cod-earnestness,safe predictable songwriting and pristine, well recorded professionalism to charm,scruffy magic,generous spiritedness and genuine individuality-which is a shame, i think..We could learn alot from Vincenzo...


Voices
A truly heart-felt vocal. Thank you Vincenzo for your voice and message!


CREATIVE VIBE
generous tones, grows with the listening, reminds of the ol 60s chestnut "everyone's gone to the moon..."


^^Moods For All Seasons^^

Psonic Ptonic Review
If there were one song on this site I'd suggest listening to to cheer up it'd be this one. Puts a smile on my face every time. Lovely heartfelt lyrics with a lot of wisdom behind their simple message on top of a heartmelting hook...now that's pop song.
