Reached #15 in the IAC "no genre" charts and top 30 for over 6 months. A song close to my heart. "You know it takes courage, courage to believe, like martin king and the kennedys..." Hugh Hamilton's performance rocks, over on Hugh's page. kudos Hugh...

Man Of Faith

1. gather round i'll tell the story 'bout a mother and her girl
some people call drifters in the modern world,
but they got rhythm, rhythm true and free,
maybe they're a bit like you and me.

1st Chorus

who changes water in wine, who finds bread in the air?
who walks on water without messin' his hair?
who catches the fishes using special bait?
wash the curbs, they're serving man of faith.

2. ann she's a tall girl with freckles on her nose
you see em playin' in the street where business people flow,
a tough crowd to play, rush hour turns to dark
each one feeling like joan of arc.

2nd Chorus

who changes water in wine, who finds bread in the air?
who walks on water without messin' his hair?
who catches the fishes using special bait?
better swerve, they're serving man of faith.

the animals and kids run to him,
a man of faith he's got a date
with destiny when the soldiers come,
he sticks to his guns, mary prays,
while he plays his ace that man of faith.

3. you know it takes courage, courage to believe
like martin king and the kennedys,
amid the sea of faces, some laughin' in the dark,
half of em feeling like joan of arc.

who changes water into wine...
you really oughta hear em play "man of faith."
they say "oh man of faith, oh man of faith,
oh man of faith, has anybody seen a man of faith?..." x

Song Comments

Bob Dylan Tribute
Man of Faith depicts a social situation, and wonders about society, faith and God. In part Dylans influence / not to forget the Beatles and the Who! -You gotta serve somebody!

~LIFE AFTER LIFE~
Jesus The King is formed into the Now street scene in SF by the magical songwriting of April and the mixed bag of guitar work...'catchy' just like the spirit of faith.

AOR Overflow
strangely reminiscent of Bob Geldof ... have to give it a few listens to really let it sink in.

:::Abominable Snow Shaft:::
The Abominable Snow Shaft 'succeeds' with April & Huge

Hugo's Thank You Station
My favorite April tune right here...it occurs to me that a common theme of the artists on this station is that they are really unabashedly themselves, putting soul over sheen...that's what I call THE INDIE SPIRIT...I'm so pleased to be reminded of why I fell in love with this damn place in the first place...

AOR (All Over the Road)
strangely reminiscent of Bob Geldof ... have to give it a few listens to really let it sink in.
