March 22 Freak Radio Playlist

So Scare

So I poured another measure and it doesn't look right
We'll be giggling and dancing 'til the end of night
So close your eyes and down it as the next one pours
Well now I've gone and said it as I am all yours

CHORUS
There's  nothing in this world that could ruin today
[I feel I'm alive]
I have these mad ideas that I whisk you away
[We blossom and thrive]
There's nothing in this world that could ruin a night electric
What makes our minds tick?
There's nothing in this world that could ruin today

And I didn't finish laughing 'til my stomach hurt
The kind of words that aren't the most conventional flirt
So pour another vodka, which one of them is mine?
I think I may have overpoured like I'm inclined to

CHORUS

Another Vodka

I've been rush-in' (as fools do...) to get this DEMOnstration of what lies in my ice-cold heart out of my confused mind, and out into the world. 

Crappy Valentine's Day y'all!

I'm Not In Love (First Site Mix)

"Winter in the City of Vancouver": On All Streaming Platforms. Here's a landing page: https://linktr.ee/michaelfirthsellers

This is a song about mature resignation in the face of human indifference and natural elements you can do nothing about.

My thanks to Chris Curtis for his harmonies, and to Sergio Aguilar of 423 Studios, for the supremely judged production and instrumental ability he brings to every song we have recorded!

"I would say just the weather in Vancouver in the winter can be kind of unforgiving."
- Brandon Jay McLaren

"I eat out three times a day most days of the year. This is no big deal to most (city dwellers), and it is not something I am necessarily proud of - it's simply the nature of my itinerant life."
- Ben Elliot

Lyrics
Winter in the city of Vancouver
It’s brutal if you don’t have some steady pay
And any working hours you’ve gained
Don’t help to ease the pain
Of living on the edge day after day

Winter in the city of Vancouver
Hail and sleet are flaying me alive
Cos the ragged clothes I wear
Let in more than I can bear
It’s an endless daily struggle to survive

Going south from Lions Gate to Granville Island
Going east from English Bay to Coquitlam
I’m seeking work to get me through to summer
If the job’s well done, press some dollars in my hand

Coyotes snapping at my heels as I walk through Stanley Park
I sure don’t care to find out if their bite is worse than their bark!
My coffee’s cold in my two-year-old disposable Starbucks cup
I fear my hopes are so far down there’s no way to pull them up!

Winter in the city of Vancouver
Christmas snow, the first in many years
As I tramp through dirty slush
My face a cold, red flush
I brush away my bitter icy tears

Going south from Lions Gate to Granville Island
Going east from English Bay to Coquitlam
If I knock upon your door, give me whatever chore
And if the job’s well done, press some dollars in my hand

Going south from Lions Gate to Granville Island
Going east from English Bay to Coquitlam
Boss man says "Just a day, then on your way, son"
But at least I get some dollars in my hand

Winter in the city of Vancouver
A city that I love and love to hate
I’m looking for some heat,
And something good to eat
Nothing more, for now at any rate

LYRICS:

At any moment on any day
A little friction can wipe us all away
In times of trouble, in times of strife
Spare no expense 'cause the price is human life
They come to conquer like they were God's own hand
And set the world ablaze to seize a little land

And everything going down is nothing but disaster
And transgressions of humanity
And everything taking shape is nothing short of wrongful
And crimes that echo in the pages of history

At any moment on any day
The clock strikes midnight and all goes down in flames
To meet ambition with vile atrocity
And piss on notions of all diplomacy
And all hell rains down, the wolf is at your door
Hope no one sees what you're compensating for

And everything going down is nothing but disaster
And transgressions of humanity
And everything taking shape is nothing short of wrongful
And crimes that echo in the pages of history

You want it, you got it
You have upset the balance
You want it, you got it
The world is in a bind
It's all just self defense
We've heard that lie before
A brain dead juggernaut
You're not the only one
You want it, you got it
You got the whole world watching
You want it, you got it
Looks like you've gone insane
Affront to everyone
To your own people too
One minute to midnight
It's all because of you

"The threat" "La Menace"

Instrumental Jazzy tune 

In 2022, when the whole world should be concerned about 
the state of the planet, the simple madness of a man makes us fall 
into horror and destruction.

En 2022, alors que le monde entier devrait se préoccuper de l'état 
de la planète, la simple folie d'un homme nous fait basculer 
dans l'horreur et la destruction.

2nd track from Grundomma 
Grundomma is myself and my brother Glenn Ward. It's been a few years since we actively made music together...but now seems like a good a time as any. We live a few 1000 kms apart across Australia so this a file swapping exercise. Bongo features Glenn on rhythm programming, synths and sampling, bass and yours truly on Piano/keys. The track features samples from the 1970s/80s cult Australian Tv show Prisoner  (released in the UK and USA as Prisoner: Cell Block H)  that ended up playing in repeat on late night Tv for decades afterwards. My brother even owns the DVD box set Thanks as always for stopping by. Grundomma salutes you : )

Bongo!

HEY LOVE YOU!

Hey love you                                                      
More than LC would’ve craved for Marianne                 
No manuscript could sing with more devotion 
A paper chain enough to fill an ocean                    
I’m always up so close and being dutiful.      
Yeah I fix your hair and say you’re beautiful.   
Yeah I fix your hair and say you’re beautiful            
Mmmm breath you in ‘til I’m insensible   

Hey love you 
Like we’re barefoot down a street in Hydra 
It’s feet on top of feet in café’s shadows
I hear applause and faintly drifting cello 
In sticky heat our limbs are stuck like glue
And I kiss your brow and murmur hey I love you
Yeah I kiss your brow and murmur hey love you
Mmmm taste your cheek ‘til I’m insensible

Hey love you 
Bathe your flashin’ teeth in tangerine
The last of breezes scurry into hiding
Nights are satin sheets with harbour lighting
I’m layin’ out your silk across the dresser
I hold you close knowing it’s forever
Yeah I hold you close knowing it’s forever 
Mmmm moving slow ‘til I’m insensible

HEY LOVE YOU

The track picture is a common sight in the canyons of Colorado, and probably all of the Rocky Mountain states.  The sun can be shining while driving in the canyon, but miles ahead there could have been a torrential rainstorm that triggered a flash flood and it is coming...quickly.  You literally have to abandon your vehicle and climb the canyon wall or get washed away.  
The sign and song are metaphorical as well.  When flash floods of circumstance happen in our lives, we must seek higher ground so as not to be washed away in the emotional maelstrom.  Such was the case with Pat and his cancer diagnosis twenty months ago, and with my good friend and collaborator Elmer Stone who unexpectedly lost his beloved wife Bonnie a few days ago.  They are seeking and finding higher ground in their faith, families, and friends.  
A big thank you to Pat for sending me the "ditty" a while back but recently rediscovered that serves as the "higher ground" in the song.

Climb To Higher Ground with Pat Howell, Mandolin (In honor of Pat Howell and Elmer Stone)

Because of the Marshal's popularity in the first installment, we thought a sequel would be fun as he embarks on another daring mission of bringing Old-West law and order to another planet where criminal mischief has broken down the rule of celestial law. Central Galactic Intelligence(CGI)received a frantic call for help that anarchists had taken over a peaceful and prosperous world and needed the Marshal to set things right.  The track begins with him and his crew (Curtis, Seagull, and David)being cleared for takeoff.
A big thank you to Curtis Gremmel(center-left in the mix) for his superb playing, Seagull @farout-music-studio for his visionary and production expertise, and Clara for being the angelic voice of CGI.

Prolific musician, author, photographer and oddity.  With influences ranging from the lofi pop of Guided by Voices, the gothic melodrama of Nick Cave, the glam of Bowie and the nakedness of Iggy Pop - this is Marc Freak.  Former frontman of Freak Circus and Dead Joe.  An experiment in DIY and lofi.  The odd bum note here, the even odder bum note there.  But with art do we care?
