Hi Steem Friends!
I have been working on this recording all week! I decided to get out of my usual rhythm and make a higher production quality video. I actually pre-recorded the audio so I could layer multiple tracks and then went a little "rockstar" in the video! haha
I'm sure i'm not the only one who is obsessed with this song right now. It's so catchy and fun to dance along with. To create the audio - I actually went through a six part process. I started with the piano and then layered from there.

Fun with an Egg Shaker!
Snapping Recording
Time to Clap!
Sometimes you Gotta Beat on a Bucket
Once I started layering some percussive elements... it was almost addictive and I kept wanting to add more! Finding a random bucket to add some bass is proof of that.
Here are the lyrics:
Havana, ooh na-na
Half of my heart is in Havana, ooh-na-na
He took me back to East Atlanta, na-na-na
Oh, but my heart is in Havana
There's somethin' 'bout his manners
Havana, ooh na-na
He didn't walk up with that "how you doin'?"
He said there's a lot of girls I can do with
I'm doin' forever in a minute
And papa says he got malo in him (uh)
He got me feelin' like
Ooh-ooh-ooh, I knew it when I met him
I loved him when I left him
Got me feelin' like
Ooh-ooh-ooh, and then I had to tell him
I had to go, oh na-na-na-na-na
Havana, ooh na-na (ay, ay)
Half of my heart is in Havana, ooh-na-na (ay, ay)
He took me back to East Atlanta, na-na-na (uh huh)
Oh, but my heart is in Havana (ay)
My heart is in Havana (ay)
Havana, ooh na-na
Got me feelin' like
Ooh-ooh-ooh, and then I had to tell him
I had to go, oh na-na-na-na-na
Havana, ooh na-na
Half of my heart is in Havana, ooh-na-na
He took me back to East Atlanta, na-na-na
Oh, but my heart is in Havana
My heart is in Havana
Havana, ooh na-na
I hope you guys enjoyed today's cover! It was definitely a little out of the box for me - but was a lot of fun to produce!
