First of all sorry if that grosses you out. I had to get it out of my system, naming a song like that. There is no reason to call this song that in fact you can call it rainbow unicorns if you want. Actually there is a small reason. When I played this riff to my nephew he said it sounds angry. I recently saw X Men: Origins: Wolverine. The character there called 'Weapon 11' looked really angry and he has a stitched mouth so that was the only rationale.
So, believe it or not. I had a tune stuck in my head for more than a 1.5 decades! I guess it might have started when I was watching this Tamil action movie called 'Managara Kaaval' (roughly translated to 'City Police'. You should watch it if you know Tamil!) and there is this background music for the villain character. It haunted me for months and years. Despite the fact that this tune sort of disturbed me in a negative way (that villain character used to scare me when I was little, brings back some terrible memories), I would keep humming it. Here it is:

And then one fine year (lol year not day) somehow it morphed in my mind and a new tune came out of it which was again stuck in my head. This song's base tune is that tune (starting at 0:36s). Here you go, the final track:
Finally after all these years I was able to get this out of my system. Hopefully this wont be stuck in my head here after.
What else? My sister said my cajon should probably sound less snare-y. So I tuned it (its not really difficult. Adjust a couple of screws until you get the sound you want) and post processed the recording reducing the treble and boosting the bass.
I used Rocksmith's 'Aeolian Metal' configuration for my guitar to get this sound. Do you also hear the palm mutes during the intro ;) ? \m/etuhhhhhlllllll!
