Watch a video of this song here:
vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=2015973173
I was watching Jewel performing an acoustic set on TV. She was singing a beautiful heartfelt personal song. As I was listening I started wondering hmmm...what kind of guitar is she playing? Here is Jewel pouring her heart out and all I care about is what kind of guitar she plays? Then the line first two lines came to me..."do you care what it is i have to say, do you care what kind of guitar i play?" I then opened up my laptop and starting writing the rest of the lyrics. Before Jewel was finished with her concert I had wrote twice as many lyrics as what finally ended up in this song.
The music started with a little tapping riff I came up with for another song...but i decided to make it its own thing...and here it is. Any and all comments are welcome....especially about the mix and how it sounds on your systems. Hope you enjoy!

WHAT DO YOU CARE?
©2007 Ray Kainz
Do you care what it is I have to say
care what kind of guitar I play
Do you care if I’m straight if I’m gay
party all night or sleep all day
Do you care if I drink if I smoke
If I laugh at all your jokes
if I drink pepsi or snort coke
or dip my toast in runny yolks
Do you care what it is I care about
care for some kim-chee, sauerkraut
Do you care if my faith’s in doubt
if I free-style or write it all out
Do you care bout the voices in my head
where you think I’m going when I’m dead
Do you care who’s sleeping in my bed
If I wear adidas or wear Keds
Do you care about the cold and hungry child
and all those who’ve been exiled
Do you care that I dare to get Buck Wild!
Do you care that my hair is always in style
DO YOU CARE?
WHAT DO YOU CARE?
Do you care that I’m gaining some extra weight
Do you care about the current interest rate
Do you care that I pray and meditate
Do you care that the hour’s getting late
Do you care if she gives you a second look
Or if she’s cute and cleans and cooks
Do you care if your name is written in the book
Do you care if the president’s a crook
Do you care about the dumb the deaf the lame
Do you care about the one who only wins the game
Do you claim everyone just brings you shame
but you always tend to do the same
Do you care about the chemicals in your beer
nozone, flyzone, atmoshphere
Someone whispers in your ear
The only thing to fear is fear
Do you care what’s really right and wrong
Do you care about the pizza in Hong-Kong
Do you care if grandma wears a thong
Shall I go on and on and on
DO YOU CARE?
WHAT DO YOU CARE?

A cornucopia of entertaining rhymes, impeccable production, witty yet passionately careless and brilliant performance, adding up to something greater than the whole. Great drumming. Love the chorus hook, the news break, the guitar solo and effects. And, yes, I love it when you go on and on...
