MP3 Description:

Here's a WHAT IF song - What if I were in a RECORDING STUDIO, how would this song sound once embellished? Raise Your Arms - Carolina Commons - Mark Holman - Holworks - ASCAP 2008 all rights reserved. Here I am playing and singing a song that makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up and makes all the dogs in a two block radius of my house howl the La la la parts as if they too know what may be. . .Raise Your Arms

    At first I thought it was a song about aerobics and then I heard the opening beat and I still thought it was....then I heard a comment close to my heart. You know my neck hair is rising higher as my resentment thickens. I think Juggs the dog is protesting along with us. You have a way, Mark, to get right down to the gut, like you say in your bio. We can feel the hopeless feeling we all have for lost loved ones, not necessarily in conflicts, but in time.

    I have a lot to say about the underlying themes, but will save it for later. Your uniqueness of, for example, the request for the fallen to wave good bye, impacts this song in a positive way. Moving on................

    i find this very intruiging. such a somber subject matter. yet, such a fun beat. minor chords. what an odd mix. but you made it work here. i think its really cool the way this works. its almost demented. :) fits my style. the only part i'm not sure about is the la la la la part. would a dude in this situation be singing la la la la la. ? i picture a smurf singing and dancing in vietnam! lol ok, so that waaas demented. cool song!

    currently my favourite Holworks song! the invasion theme with the bongo/conga beat reminds me of the movie Apocalypto. excellent! five thumbs up!
