Don’t Bring Me Down [Bitpop/Chiptune] – Tribute to Electric Light Orchestra

8 bit Bitpop/Chiptune cover of the Electric Light Orchestra song, Don’t Bring Me Down – Made with the sounds of the Commodore 64 home computer.

This is another one of those songs I heard repeatedly while spending my 20 cent pieces at the Caloundra Amusement Centre (“Pinnie Parlour”).

I found that there was an unusual harmony between this song and the laser sound effects of Space Invaders.

Made with ♥

Lyrics

You got me runnin’ goin’ out of my mind
You got me thinkin’ that I’m wastin’ my time
(Don’t bring me down, no no no no no)
I’ll tell you once more before I get off the floor
(Don’t bring me down)You wanna stay out with your fancy friends
I’m tellin’ you it’s got to be the end
(Don’t bring me down, no no no no no)
I’ll tell you once more before I get off the floor
(Don’t bring me down)Don’t bring me down, groos
Don’t bring me down, groos
Don’t bring me down, groos
Don’t bring me downWhat happened to the girl I used to know?
You let your mind out somewhere down the road
(Don’t bring me down, no no no no no)
I’ll tell you once more before I get off the floor
(Don’t bring me down)You’re always talkin’ ’bout your crazy nights
One of these days you’re gonna get it right
(Don’t bring me down, no no no no no no no)
I’ll tell you once more before I get off the floor
(Don’t bring me down)Don’t bring me down, groos
Don’t bring me down, groos
Don’t bring me down, groos
Don’t bring me downYou’re lookin’ good just like a snake in the grass
One of these days you’re gonna break your glass
(Don’t bring me down, no no no no no no no)
I’ll tell you once more before I get off the floor
(Don’t bring me down)You got me shakin’ got me runnin’ away
You got me crawlin’ up to you everyday
(Don’t bring me down, no no no no no)
I’ll tell you once more before I get off the floor
(Don’t bring me down)I’ll tell you once more before I get off the floor
(Don’t bring me down)
