MUSICAL GENIUS.
His lyrics are so mystical and spiritual and brutally honest.
There was something he wrote in the best of album, about one of their previous albums. He said "LIVE was the only band doing music like this at that time. Some kids were burning down Woodstock to Limp Bizkit and I was meditating and writing songs about dolphins, now that's alternative".
And even today, LIVE is probably one of the very few bands who still write these kinda songs!
I think every single one of his lyrics, is so honest and so sad but so powerful. Seriously, I'm not kidding, check LIVE out. They're one of the best yet relatively unknown (in Singapore) bands around!
You don't need no friendsGet back your faith againYou have the power to believeAnother dissidentTake back your evidenceIt has no power to deceiveI'll believe it when I see it, for myselfI don't need no one to tell me about heavenI look at my daughter, and I believeI don't need no proof when it comes to God and truthI can see the sunset and I perceiveI sit with them all nightEverything they say is rightBut in the morning they were wrongI'll be right by your sideCome hell or water highDown any road you choose to roamDarling, I believe, Oh LordSometimes it's hard to breathe, LordAt the bottom of the sea
