So excited to get my CD. Ordered it yesterday. This is a great reggae pop tune. Shaping up to be one of your best records from what I've heard so far. :)

Nice tune. Classic Colin Hay. Sweet B3 sounds too!

The one who keeps their eye keeps his mind.
The one who keeps their mind preserves their heart.
Clear your mind so that the heart can get through to others. 
Don't dampen your fire under another's covers!
A snake keeps it's distance from the that. 
So keep the that upon your back..
If you're smart and you don't wanna deal with that. 
Don't let the pressure....
Of a Babylon culture...
Distract you from the better...
Don't forget your humour and forfeit your culture. 
Let's get together and make the weather get better. 
All we need is love.
We need to talk to eachother again.
Put aside our cell phones...
And see....
The real state of humanity...
And then the government's true wae power sick insanity...
And end this great calamity...
Until we blow the whole Earth up!
What are we doing with the body yes our cup?
Turned into money sick criminals with guns in the air yelling separation as an anthem. 
We need to weep and let our eyes become clear. 
Get the garbage lies out and come out of our disquise, shout...and be free. In Peacccccce.....
Peacccccce.....
Knowing Love's true voice...
Giving proper space to one another.
Not holding guns and imprisonment sentences over eachother.
We've missed the boat to Love.
Become a modern slavery so bad.
It makes the Earth so sad. 
Not rad.
We don't want a new fad.
We need to reverse this capitalism sick religion before it gets too bad.

Far From Home

Most artists who have experienced the levels of success and adulation Colin Hay has would be content to sit back and earn a living walking to the mailbox and back. Yet Hay is restless, eager to move forward and continually hone his craft while continuing to challenge himself. Hay's solo shows intersperse classic and new songs with hilarious, poignant, and downright surreal stories drawn from his often unbelievable experiences over the past three decades. "I've been doing these solo tours for a number of years," he explains, "going back to the same places and building audiences by doing the best shows I can."  Themes of redemption and renewal come naturally to Colin Hay, as he is in the midst of a remarkable renaissance.
