    Do you remember the 21st night of September?
    Love was changing the minds of pretenders
    While chasing the clouds away
    Our hearts were ringing
    In the key that our souls were singing
    As we danced in the night
    Remember how the stars stole the night away
    Hey hey hey
    Ba de ya, say do you remember
    Ba de ya, dancing in September
    Ba de ya, never was a cloudy day
    Ba duda, ba duda, ba duda, badu
    Ba duda, badu, ba duda, badu
    Ba duda, badu, ba duda
    My thoughts are with you
    Holding hands with your heart to see you
    Only blue talk and love
    Remember how we knew love was here to stay
    Now December found the love that we shared in September
    Only blue talk and love
    Remember the true love we share today
    Hey hey hey
    Ba de ya, say do you remember
    Ba de ya, dancing in September
    Ba de…yaa

    @epyx88 I've largely given up playing real pianos because they have nowhere near enough bass. I add as much bass to the mix as I can. If you do that then you naturally become very aware of what you're doing with the bass. On Bill Withers 'Lovely Day' I did copy the bass line. I normally just copy important features of the bass line, but if I'm playing without drums I use the bass to create the beat - which a real bass player wouldn't need to do to the same extent.

    Thanks Ljuskica - there is a drum machine built into the keyboard and I used to use it but the problem is that people said it was annoying and I must admit that because it pumps out the same rhythm all throughout the song then it gives a flat feel to everything - so I've largely given up and try to keep the rhythm going just with the filling notes.
