GLAMORIZE ME (Vocal Demo) Duran Duran Inspired 1980s Power Pop Song About Adoration, Fame & Glamor

A few years ago, I did a writing exercise I often do with stand along projects - I wrote a group of songs as if they were written by other artists, which included my track "Island Of The Day Before" and this track - "Glamorize Me" - a song for Duran Duran that take a look at the height of their mid-1980s fame. The music is based on the sound and feel of the band's more pop hits. In this video, I created a fictional duo going by Neon Warriors who stand in for Simon and company who exprrience all the glamorous elements and fun from touring, TV and print notoriety, music videos, a video game, a Saturday morning cartoon, and a movie. Make no mistake about it, the 1980s were huge and success had a lot of places it could exist within. Every so often, artists came along that were a marketer's dream. GLAMORIZE ME Lyrics In the misty glow of colored lights Dressed to kill, time to thrill tonight Step onto the scene, I feel so alive I'm center of attention, that's where I reside Every moment is a grand affair A symphony of desire, I won't spare The world's my oyster, we're turning the page All eyes are on me as I take the stage Glamourize me, stop and stare I'm the star of the show, hey I'm everywhere Glamourize me, let the cameras flash I'm the center of attention, dazzling and brash Lights, camera, action, it's my show I'll captivate your hearts, let the magic flow I walk the walk, with a confident glide Superstar charisma amplified A smile radiating like the sun Charm you all till the night is done Lost in the rhythm, a seductive dance In this glamorous world, I'll take my chance Glamourize me, stop and stare I'm the star of the show, hey I'm everywhere Glamourize me, let the cameras flash I'm the center of attention, dazzling and brash They say fame Can be a hollow game But I'll embrace it With no shame Glamourize me, stop and stare I'm the star of the show, hey I'm everywhere Glamourize me, let the cameras flash I'm the center of attention, dazzling and brash
