This is one of my best all time "hit" singalong songs. It's a call and response, "zipper" song or "chant" which in it's simplicity encourages EVERYONE to either sing along or shake along or dance along or play along with SOMETHING, even if it's just their car keys. This is the original studio version. someday a kick ass live version is coming... I can just feel it...

Since 1976, I’ve been obsessively and compulsively writing
songs. Some of them are inspired by my own life, my attempts to understand love, life, spirituality, peace and justice.
While I recently have started to get a little recognition, you’ve probably never heard my songs ANYWHERE.
But now you can hear them... here... Download. Share. Thanks!...more
