What's Going On Next Door speaks to things we don't generally want to speak about. Domestic violence, abuse, child porn... these are things that are in our world sadly, and sometimes it's hard to know whether to speak out and intervene or stay silent. This song is meant to make you stop and think about it. What would you do if you were right next door and something not so nice was happening?

Natalie Brown & Jeremy Rwakaara + All lead & background vocal sweetness by Natalie Brown + Keyboard & drum programming, recording, mixing & mastering by Jeremy Rwakaara at Studio 302 Toronto, Ontario CANADA & Gaithersburg, Maryland USA www.studio302.com + Produced by Jeremy Rwakaara for Zikki Productions

From Natalie's 2009 release "Random Thoughts"

What’s Goin’ On Next Door?

V1
Here I go again
Covering my ears so I don’t hear it
(What a doggone shame)
Time and time again
I close my eyes
So I don’t see it
(It just feels insane)
But I wanna know

CHORUS
What’s goin’ on next door?
It’s hard to tell for sure
It’s not my business, no
What should I do?
What if that’s me next door?
Would I want you to know?
If I was hurting so
What should you do?

V2
It’s no concern of mine
But I could be mistaken
(It’s a chance I’ll take)
There might come a time
When it’s too late
Someone’s forsaken
(It’s a sad mistake)
Still, I wanna know

CHORUS
What’s goin’ on next door?
It’s hard to tell for sure
It’s not my business, no
What should I do?
What if that’s me next door?
Would I want you to know?
If I was hurting so
What should you do?

BRIDGE
I need to know if I’m responsible for
My neighbor, or a stranger
But if I wait, it might be to late
For an answer
Wake up people this has got to STOP

CHORUS
What’s goin’ on next door?
It’s hard to tell for sure
It’s not my business, no
What should I do?
What if that’s me next door?
Would I want you to know?
If I was hurting so
What should you do? x

Cup of Joe
Natalie Brown has One of most incredible voices here on IAC, yeah I say that every so often, so then she fits in with the cream here of the crop of IACERS....definitely some serious years of experience honing her skills and having that natural innate singing ability , what a gift she has and loving the listening, (numerous times while checking the song out) Great Vox on this tune, there is some real grooving soul going on in this tune..even though it is indicated as pop it has some real great soul infused in it, for ,me anyways. Soaring vocals. Tight solid groove to the instruments. great bgs too. Nice one AGAIN .....she will be another one of my favs here at IAC........

Great singing, witty lyrics, and good message. Good song.

BAKER'S DOZEN
Tight production, Natalie's voice is well developed, soulful, and sexy. The subject is important in this song. What's going on in this song is tight harmonies, and some good soul searching. Retro

The VIBE
serious soul feel, really love the vocals and harmonies. Nat is a seasoned vet in the music world and her work here is so good, world class. So radio friendly. big fat juicy groove happening. class stuff , so well crafted. great lyrics. the story weaves and leads to what's going on next door. something so fine happening here on this song. Thanks Nat, we miss your singing, bring something new sometime soon to us, VIBILICOUSNESS.
