Propaganda, Indoctrination, Social Terrorism, Psychological Operations are the new normal... I ain't falling for it and neither should you. Stay Normal!
Acoustic driven, punk at heart.

lyrics
You say you got a sure-fire way to help a poor man make it out.
I say gotta do it my own way, got a gut feeling without a doubt.
You say we gotta follow you and should obey everything that you say.
But I'm still gonna do it my own way, cause I'm against it all anyway.
U SAy... I SAy
You say you give us voice to choose, to speak out when it's outta control
I say gonna use it my own way, cause you can't argue with my Rock and Roll.
You take more of our rights away, sayin' everything's for our own good.
So who'll wave the banners and march the streets, and will it ever do us any good?
U SAy... I SAy My way!
You say we gotta follow you and should obey everything that you say.
But I'm still gonna do it my own way, cause I'm against it all anyway.
You take more of our rights away, sayin' everything's for our own good.
So who'll wave the banners and march the streets, and HAS IT EVER done us any good!?
U SAy... I SAy
(oration...)
"I see your game,
It's propaganda and indoctrination,
Psychological operations and social terrorism.
You use fear to coerce your people to surrender their rights.
Your war machine is the media, enacted upon your own people.
Your soft-tyranny, corruption, money, power, and control
may rule this country and my fellow citizens,
But you will never rule my spirit...
You will never own my soul,
And so to you I SAy... FUCK OFF!" - Joe Normal

I saw Alvvays open for CourtneyBarnett 2016 'n checked out this album that week on Spotify, made me a fan for life. They make brilliant records if you ask me. Great vocals, songs, guitar parts.

The original release without the last two tracks. Sloan is hecka-talented, I'd say he's the next Paul McCartney. I'm grateful to find a young artist/producer so inspiring, good natured, and melodic.

Christmassy Music
by The Light Music CompanyIf Dayglow's the youthful side of my inspiration, Martin Newell's the older hero that pushes me on, to stay prolific 'n that 'every dog has his day.' I wish him good health, abundance, and much love.
