From the recording Mega-Top #1
Mega-Top is the very latest Electronica House song offering by John Royce Holtz, J.D..
With an accentuated Baritone voice that I’m proud to call my own with a bit of synthetic accentuation, the tune refers to the extreme, looping topspin in tennis that clears the net by a wide margin of error and is both an ultra-consistent, offensive and defensive, kicking up and out weapon in fierce competition….A sometimes lethal, leaping weapon that I triumphantly utilized to slay four ranked NorCal and SoCal former junior players (and fellow teammates) to champion the Cal Riverside Walk-On Tournament way back in the Day….
Mega-Top lyrics include the following: “Mega-Top… Mega-Top… Mega-Top…. Spin, Spin, Spin… Hands High Over Head…. Blasts Bungee Jumps off Baseline… Loopers without Bloopers. High up Catch Fence…This ennobles me to Chisel out the W…..!
CHORUS: “Don’t You Wish You Hadn’t Shown Up for the Match at All?!”—What a backhanded cap on the hypothetical opponent’s lack of competition tennis acumen!….of course, without my Mercy on the largely fictitious battlefield, complements of this varsity, collegiate NCAA D1 Player somewhere in betweeen top amateur/lower professional…with a classical tennis game, nevertheless…I was like a fricking Wall with readily consistent barrages of power-laden clusterf*cks!!!
Mega-Top is a bit Cocky, to say the least—Don’t you think?! “Opponents have an Irresistible Urge to Self-Destruct…. If I do happen to fall into the tank (not trying as hard as I should), I can rise like a Phoenix from the Ashes…No one;… Mental.. (“Who art though?!”)…Arthur C. Stackerazz…The Pleasure is Mine…(to kick a little college “A!”, including possibly yours, from Yours Truly, Sir Stack!).
Organ juxtaposes nicely with techno bass/drums, Baritone singer/and closer to Falsetto, double extra crooners in the tune’s second half (We’re one and the same!)… Electronica rocks the house with my Mega-Top on the University of San Francisco Hilltop (a.k.a. Lone Mountain!) Reminds me of that awesome song by Rainbow, The Man on the Silver Mountain !
Mega-Top also connotes at or near the top of the heap in as many versatile categories as possible: world-class writing, awesome, beast-like tennis (during more than a handful of occasions), perhaps somewhat lazy, albeit semi-perfectionist New Wave Rock and Roller who often stayed up all night’s otherwise quietude to edit quality tunes….This is one of the brand newest, spanking songs on the fricking planet! (I’m such a prolific Hipster House Generator, as well as creator in the aforementioned musical genres, including R and B…./Rock Fusion/ with a bit of improvisational jazz, to boot!
Ironically, I changed my tennis game a few years later to hit with littler, driving, and pummeling Topspin all the same, while serve and volleying…But that does not change the fact that my former Mega-Top will still always serve me well—should I ever decide to revert to the tried and true “loaded consistencies” in my Golden Years…in yet, another feasible comeback from the extinct!
Warm regards during this blistering swelter of a Summer in The Sack Town not too far off from where the “Prince of the Sierras” temporarily resides…
