    I listen to Mike everyday on the way to work so i can get mentally prepared for the day. Sometimes i cry, and sometimes i sing at the top of my lungs smiling.

    343 people don't understand music or how difficult it is for a male to have such a wide vocal range, period.
    This man's skill is not easily matched by almost any musician alive at the moment.
    He isn't mainstream because his message doesn't fit into the mainstream narrative. His message is love and positivity, that's not the mainstream narrative; that would be sex, drugs, and money.

    i don't know how I've managed to live 31 years without letting this man speak into my spirit.... just wow... this song is awesome... but my favorite is "permanent holiday" ... the way Mr. Love uses the loop petal is the same way that God speaks revelation into our lives... I've never seen anything like it.... this guy is surely deserves a crown... way better leadership than what we have today... thanks for just being you, brother!!!

    As a retired player of 40 yrs, I'd like to say, NOW THATS TALENT! Thank you! As a player from the 60s and 70s I thought all the talent had disapeared, I hope some label has enough ear to hear this talent. May God bless and may millions hear and appreciate your voice, writing, and playing. Thanks

      I Pray Mike never $ign$ on the dotted line with any label and that He stays independent of their fuckery and free to do what his heart leads Him to at any time .. Record co. Contracts kill the Spontaneity and that kills' the music.. you were in it for 40 years so you likely already know this to be true.. cheers my friend.. we do agree on this talent

      have you heard permanent holiday, when he loops bits of words over and over and eventually builds to be the chorus, that really did blow me away, i thought the song was going a bit weird at first, which of course is the idea but when it comes together its amazing, what a talented guy and his lyrics are direct from his heart and soul.

    Penniless
    Mike Love
    I’ve kept my mouth shut too long
    Begging for scraps down here at the bottom
    And though I know it might ruffle some feathers
    I just can’t hold my tongue no more
    Cause I’m sure that the weak and the poor got
    Something to say but they can’t pay so nobody listens
    And a man with a hell of a plan can’t do nothing with
    His hands while he’s stuck in the back washing dishes
    It don’t seem right that some work ‘til the day that they die
    And some never have to work a single day in their lives
    Won’t somebody tell me why
    I get paid half as much to work
    Twice as hard as all these yuppie jerks
    Just because I don’t wear a suit and a tie
    Am I out of my mind to wish that I was
    Penniless, so that I could rest
    All these money troubles give me stress
    Always wanting more and having less
    All these worries take my
    Life away, there goes another day
    Working minimum wage
    Trapped up inside this cage
    With one foot in the grave
    I think it would be best if we all were just more
    Penniless
    They say you’re penniless you’re broke but to me it’s a joke
    Cause the wealthiest ones, mentally, spiritually, are the unhealthiest ones
    Their trust funds ain’t gonna save them when the judgement comes, we’ll just watch ‘em run
    Cause the tidal wave’s comin’ and it’s gonna break
    And take away all ignorance, leave only truth in its wake
    Cause any system’s bound to fail that lets the treacherous prevail and puts the innocent in jail, watches them burn at the stake
    But I and I know that there will come a day
    When the breeze will blow, and take this all away
    And in time everything will be okay
    If we can just find a way to stay
    Oh what we hold within our hearts
    Will always be, will never part
    And what we hold within our hands
    Will quickly turn to smoke and sand
    So let it go
    Cause the rain will fall and wash away
    And sun will shine another day, another life, another way, another chance to run and play
    And all these things that you hold dear, they will soon all disappear
    So let it go, let go
    Cause what we hold within our hands
    Will quickly turn to smoke and sand
    So let it go, let it fade, let it slide and slip away
    And may your soul be at rest
    Rich in love and rich in joy and rich in truth and truly blessed truly
    Penniless

    If Mike Love ever comes to your city, or near you, go see him live in concert! It's funny how we don't talk about profits today anymore, but anyone can see that he is a profit. During his last concert he talked about that once he put his ego aside, the music just came to him from an external source. Imagine if all of us could put our egos aside and see what amazing things would come through us!

    (Rogando por sobras aqui abajo, en el fondo)
    And though I know it might ruffle some feathers
    (Y aunque sé que podría erizar algunas plumas)
    I just can’t hold my tongue no more
    (Simplemente no puedo contener mi lengua más)
    Cause I’m sure that the weak and the poor got
    (Pues estoy seguro de que el débil y el pobre tienen)
    Something to say but they can’t pay so nobody listens
    (algo que decir, pero no pueden pagar, asi que nadie los escucha)
    And a man with a hell of a plan can’t do nothing with
    (Y un hombre con un plan endemoniado, no puede hacer nada con)
    His hands while he’s stuck in the back washing dishes
    (sus manos, mientras está atrapado en la parte de atrás, lavando platos)
    It don’t seem right that some work ‘til the day that they die
    (No parece justo que unos trabajen hasta el dia en que mueren)
    And some never have to work a single day in their lives
    (Y otros no tengan que trabajar un solo dia en sus vidas)
    Won’t somebody tell me why
    (Nadie quiere decirme por que)
    I get paid half as much to work
    (Me pagan la mitad por mucho trabajar)
    Twice as hard as all these yuppie jerks
    (Doblemente duro que todos estos tontos yuppies* )
    Just because I don’t wear a suit and a tie
    (Solo porque no uso un traje y corbata)
    Am I out of my mind to wish that I was
    (Estoy loco por desear que fuera)
    Penniless, so that I could rest
    (Sin dinero? para que pudiera descansar)
    All these money troubles give me stress
    (Todos estos problemas de dinero me estresan)
    Always wanting more and having less
    (Siempre queriendo más y teniendo menos)
    All these worries take my
    (todas estas preocupaciones se llevan mi)
    Life away, there goes another day
    (Vida léjos, ahí va otro día)
    Working minimum wage
    (Trabajando por salario mínimo)
    Trapped up inside this cage
    (atrapado dentro de esta jaula)
    With one foot in the grave
    (con un pie en la tumba)
    I think it would be best if we all were just more
    (creo que sería mejor si todos estuviéramos más)
    Penniless
    (Sin dinero)
    They say you’re penniless you’re broke but to me it’s a joke
    (Ellos dicen "sin dinero estás quebrado" pero para mí es un chiste)
    Cause the wealthiest ones, mentally, spiritually, are the unhealthiest ones
    (Porque los más ricos, mentalmente, espiritualmente, son los menos saludables)
    Their trust funds ain’t gonna save them when the judgement comes, we’ll just watch
    ‘em run
    (Sus fondos fiduciarios no los salvarán cuando el juicio llegue, solo los veremos correr)
    Cause the tidal wave’s comin’ and it’s gonna break
    (Porque la marejada ya viene, y romperá)
    And take away all ignorance, leave only truth in its wake
    (Y se llevará lejos toda la ignorancia, dejará solamente verdad en su despertar)
    Cause any system’s bound to fail that lets the treacherous prevail and puts the innocent
    in jail, watches them burn at the stake
    (Porque todo sistema que condena al inocente y hace prevalecer al traicionero, está destinado a fracasar)
    But I and I know that there will come a day
    (Pero yo y yo sé que vendrá un día)
    When the breeze will blow, and take this all away
    (en que la brisa soplará, y se llevará todo)
    And in time everything will be okay
    (Y con el tiempo todo estará bien)
    If we can just find a way to stay
    (Si pudiésemos encontrar una manera de permanecer...)
    Penniless, so that I could rest
    (Sin dinero, para que pudiera descansar)
    All these money troubles give me stress
    (Todos estos problemas de dinero me estresan)
    Always wanting more and having less
    (Siempre queriendo más y teniendo menos)
    All these worries take my
    (todas estas preocupaciones se llevan mi)
    Life away, there goes another day
    (Vida léjos, ahí va otro día)
    Working minimum wage
    (Trabajando por salario mínimo)
    Trapped up inside this cage
    (atrapado dentro de esta jaula)
    With one foot in the grave
    (con un pie en la tumba)
    I think it would be best if we all were just more
    (creo que sería mejor si todos estuviéramos)
    Penniless
    (Sin dinero)
    Oh what we hold within our hearts
    (Lo que tenemos dentro de nuestros corazones)
    Will always be, will never part
    (Siempre estará, nunca se irá)
    And what we hold within our hands
    (Y lo que tenemos en nuestras manos)
    Will quickly turn to smoke and sand
    (Rápidamente se convertirá en humo y polvo)
    So let it go...
    (Así que, déjalo ir...)
    Cause the rain will fall and wash away
    (Porque la lluvia caerá y de lo llevará)
    And sun will shine another day, another life, another way, another chance to run and play
    (Y el sol brillará otro día, otra vida, otro camino, otra oportunidad para correr y jugar)
    And all these things that you hold dear, they will soon all disappear
    (Y todas estas cosas que sostienes, caríño, pronto desaparecerán)
    So let it go, let go...
    (Así que déjalo ir, déjalo ir...)
    Cause what we hold within our hands
    (Porque lo que tenemos en las manos)
    Will quickly turn to smoke and sand
    (Rápidamente se convertirá en humo y polvo)
    So let it go, let it fade, let it slide and slip away
    (Así que déjalo ir, deja que se desvanezca, deja que corra y que se largue)
    And may your soul be at rest
    (Y así tu alma pueda descansar)
    Rich in love and rich in joy and rich in truth and truly blessed truly
    (Rica en amor y rica en alegrías, rica en verdad y realmente feliz, realmente)
    Penniless
    (Sin dinero)

    Penniless Lyrics
    I’ve kept my mouth shut too long
    Begging for scraps down here at the bottom
    And though I know it might ruffle some feathers
    I just can’t hold my tongue no more
    ‘Cause I’m sure that the weak and the poor
    Got something to say, but they can’t pay so nobody listens
    And a man with a hell of a plan
    Can’t do nothing with his hands, while he’s stuck in the back washing dishes
    It don’t seem right that some work ’til the day that they die
    And some never have to work a single day in their lives
    Won’t somebody tell me why
    I get paid half as much to work
    Twice as hard as all these yuppie jerks
    Just because I don’t wear a suit and a tie
    Am I out of my mind to wish that I was[Chorus]
    Penniless, so that I could rest
    All these money troubles give me stress
    Always wanting more and having less
    All these worries take my life away
    There goes another day
    Working minimum wage
    Trapped up inside this cage
    With one foot in the grave
    I think it would be best
    If we all were just more penniless
    They say you’re penniless, you’re broke
    But to me it’s a joke
    ‘Cause the wealthiest ones, mentally, spiritually, are the unhealthiest ones
    Their trust funds ain’t gonna save ‘em when the judgement comes
    We’ll just watch them run
    ‘Cause the tidal wave’s coming and it’s gonna break

    And all these things that you hold dear

    And may your soul be at rest
    Rich in Love and rich in truth and truly blessed
    Truly penniless
