Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - The audio version of this story opens with a clip of Cortes Island’s own Kim Paulley singing in what may be the first music video release of Bryan Adams' ‘Straight from the Heart.’ That was in 1979. Adams originally thought it should be sung by a woman and did not make the song famous for another 3 years. 
 
Paulley has been entertaining Cortes Islanders for the past three decades and in 1994 gave a special unscheduled performance for Queen Elizabeth on Twin Islands. In the first broadcast of a two part series, she talks about the beginnings of her career.

SMILE - The Thai Journey

Heartfelt

Lyrics:
Mind out the gutters
Open the shutters, the light keep me covered
Trying to find my strive my lover
Don't switch sides I keep it 1 hunna
Pain, i say but I'm just another
I don't really care you won't hear me stutter
So many men, gon lose a brother
And just wanna do a runner, nuh uh

Tell me what you thinking about
Deep dive in your head let me out
Live a life, do you wanna live it loud?
I said look alive everybody dead around
Drop like flies are you the next dying?
Preaching wise words echoed in the choir
It don't matter what I say now
Whole lotta chatter will you breakout?

Will you,
Will you breakout?
Whole lotta chatter
Stay the same wow
Whole lotta talking
Bait now
Wonder, will you breakout?
Tell me what's the game now
Tell me I'm insane now
I don't give a fuck
Just know I'm gonna breakout

Summer is coming I'll pick myself up
Let me do what I do, stop giving a fuck
It's a bummer but I'm gonna fucking prove I've got
Nothing to lose, cos who do I truely love?
This coming straight from the heart, one that cupid shot
Can't feel my face I'm fine, is it you or not?
Won't run away this time, I can't choose to stop
I'm gonna rise from the ashes fore I truely drop yeah

Like a Phoenix phasing through all the demons
Preaching keep my head on, I'm needing
A whole lot more, a whole lot of reasons
Soul got caught up in a lotta feelings
Speaking my mind, speak in my mic
Creeping slowly, I'm bleeding, I might
Keep it holy, I see a white light
I ain't going, ain't really my time

Will you,
Will you breakout?
Whole lotta chatter
Stay the same wow
Whole lotta talking
Bait now
Wonder, will you breakout?
Tell me what's the game now
Tell me I'm insane wow
I don't give a fuck
Just know I'm gonna breakout

Yeah
Breakout
Breakout
Wow
Will you breakout?
Breakout
Breakout 
Yeah

Heartfelt

Lyrics:
Sat on the doorstep
I write what my brain can't process
I wonder how much mores left 
I sigh, I keep on going

No stars it's just my thoughts and
The clouds above, so porpoise
Like the blunts I used to toke
Like the elephant we ignoring

Cigerillo smoke getting old already
Time keeps flying I'm nearly 20
In for the ride? Keep your hands inside, be steady
Drop inbound and we fly, confetti
Shooting, I feel like a yeti
Cold to the touch ain't nobody really get me
Wanna throw up but my brain won't let me
Fuck daggers in your back this feel like a machete

Stabbing
I keep on rapping
I can't read your mind 
But I see what happened
I see through your lies
I need a chance said
You can tell what I 
Am tryna say, but damn it's tough

Tell me Give up
But I'm never really done
Lil hiccup
I can't ever rid the love
Tell me I'm not
Where i thought i was
Getting me lost
Everything I could want
Can't ever leave 
Breathing heavily
I can't ever leave
That memory

Telepathy 
I'm in your head and I can't stop
Telepathy I can see everything from above
Telepathy, heart, soul, forever bleeding fuck
Telepathy, uh uh, Telepathy yuh

Telepathy [Prod.SAMMAELタタ]

Heartfelt

Lyrics:
Pain, so cold
No aims no goals
Don't Wait
Dont hope
Don't Wait
Don't go
Yo name, yo soul
My brain, my road
I see slow motion
Sleep eyes open

Phoenix, ashes, rise burn fast it's
Strange, the past is a blur, camera flashes
Her, her too, hurt, too much damage done 
Relapse on the mind, reak havoc
Dumb, in my eyes, heart broken ask why
God don't speak but I can't see the signs
Run in my mind scars show I can't hide
What I be, when i bleed, when I capsize
Phases I've gone right through
Never thought it'd be me and you
Looking back now that lense is blue
Said love but I guess it isn't true
Is that cross round your neck or do
You just want to forget it too?
You said a lot of excuses
But i know its nothing new yeah

What about him
What about me
What about friends
What about peace
What about your head
On my shoulders lean in
What about your lips
Round mine when we breathing
What about the days going out when we eating
What about the days when we cuddle on the evening
What about the way that I felt
Bout the way that you fell
Was it ever even 
Real, real
Real, real
Don't know how to feel
Don't know what is really
Real, real
Real, real
Don't know how to feel 
Don't know what is really real
