Bitcoin (I Love You) wiki

This song was made during the height of the Bitcoin craze in late 2017/early 2018. Bitcoin reached nearly $20,000 per coin. It's also when I started trading cryptocurrency and learned that day trading is hard. I started losing money, then I broke even, then I got out. A noob to the trading world can't ask for more than that, many people lost a lot of money.

Production

This song was recorded with my Les Paul guitar, and everything else was virtual instruments. Never having released a rock song until this tune, and I didn't know that getting a good guitar tone was so difficult. The rhythm guitars were recorded with all the guitar knobs cranked up, because I didn't realize that the 9v battery in my active pickups was dead. I also plugged direct into the MBox Pro, and use the Eleven Rack plugin.

The drums, bass, and supplemental lead guitar were done with Xpand2 on ProTools.

This song is part of a "one by one" or "slow release" release album I'm working on called Binary Love (Songs About Technology and Pretentiousness) of which the already released song I Don't Think You Understand is part of.

Bitcoin (I Love You) lyrics

Bitcoin, I love you, I love you, I love you. I love you today

Bitcoin, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you. I hate you today

Down, down, down, down, down, down...

And now my exchange is cock-blocking

Bitcoin, you love me, you love me, you love me. you love me today

Bitcoin, you hate me, you hate me, you hate me. you hate me today

When you're up I'm up

When you're down I'm down

I once had a lover just like you

Down, down, down, down, down, down...

Up, up, up, up, up, up, up...
