      AllyCat307 : I just lost my mom too. I can't believe that it is real. The agony is so unbearingly heavy on it's own, but it gets even worse when I see how totally devastated my dad is. It's all just way too much. I really don't understand how people deal with this, and yet everybody does at some point. How? HOW?????

    • @mikemasse
      @mikemasse  6 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      I’m so sorry for your loss. Please give your dad a big hug for me. This song reminds me of my sister Monica who passed. It was one of her favorite covers of mine. And she is also a mom. Please hang in there and give it time. But you’re so right, you’re not alone.

    • @dontsurroundurselfwithurself
      @dontsurroundurselfwithurself 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Mike Massé Mike thank you. I remember Monica very well from your Superman video. My mom's passing has taught me is that until someone goes through it themselves, they can't truly be as empathetic as they think they are. Your intro tribute to Monica tugged at my heart back then, but it has new meaning now. Same with let It Be. BTW I too am a recovering attorney / guitarist/ keyboardist/ vocalist. My bff in law school was/is a drummer and while our classmates dreamt of pleading a case in the SCOTUS, we dreamt of starting a band together - "Men's Rea" (w/ the apostrophe). He is actually the one that turned me on to you (Africa). Since then, you've inspired me to the point that when I'm learning a song that you also cover, I emulate you rather than the original artist. Prayers of peace, love, happiness and prosperity to you and your family. Same for anyone reading this who has lost someone.

    Lightning crashes a new mother cries
    Her placenta falls to the floor
    The angel opens her eyes
    The confusion sets in
    Before the doctor can even close the door
    Lightning crashes an old mother dies
    Her intentions fall to the floor
    The angel closes her eyes
    The confusion that was hers
    Belongs now to the baby down the hall
    Oh now feel it, comin' back again
    Like a rollin', thunder chasing the wind
    Forces pullin' from
    The center of the earth again
    I can feel it.
    Lightning crashes a new mother cries
    This moment she's been waiting for
    The angel opens her eyes
    Pale blue colored iris
    Presents the circle
    And puts the glory out to hide, hide
    Oh now feel it, comin' back again
    Like a rollin', thunder chasing the wind
    Forces pullin' from
    The center of the earth again
    I can feel it.
    Oh now feel it, comin' back again
    Like a rollin', thunder chasing the wind
    Forces pullin' from
    The center of the earth again
    I can feel it.
    Oh now feel it, comin' back again
    Like a rollin', thunder chasing the wind
    Forces pullin' from
    The center of the earth again
    I can feel it.

    Mike Masse, you have absolutely no idea what I and a whole lot of your fans would give to be anywhere close to your standards. Yet another brilliant piece. It's just as well that you're not having a full band to back you up. They'd certainly have trouble in keeping up with you and your voluminous cover repertoire and the bar that they'd have to set to do justice to you. Thank you for another brilliant piece.

    I started as a drummer in 1984. But as I got older I realized I can't drag a drum set to every garage 3 am music jam set drinking beer and singing at the top of my lungs (which yes I can sing) so acoustic guitar became a mission. My teacher has long passed away from this world but his words ring true daily... " a cased guitar never gets played" and practice at least 30 minutes a day. Only request I have is Norwegian wood. Great acoustic song. Colin hay did a great job id love to hear yours. Forever fan j

    • @ChristomirRackov
      @ChristomirRackov 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Mike M He would need to perform his original music there.
      And that can happen only when he gains enough confidence in his own original songwriting. And for THAT, his "fans" need to stop treating him as just a cover artist or some sort of human jukebox, and realize his has songwriting talent.

    • @JusBidniss
      @JusBidniss 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Christomir Rackov No problems that I can see with his covers (he's amazing at them), his confidence (covers are just the area he's chosen so far, and that's as valid a choice as any), or his fans loving the work he has put out there to date (we recognize excellence when we hear it).
      I'm sure all of us fans would love any original material from him, should he choose to publish it. Mike's got more sheer talent in his little finger than many so-called artists out there today, as we all know and appreciate.
      But I do take your basic point about Kimmel, and if originals will get him on a bigger stage, I for one am all for it.

    • @ChristomirRackov
      @ChristomirRackov 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      JusBidniss BTW, I never said I saw any problems with his covers. ;) Mike is a great *cover* artist - among the best out there. I'm just saying he can be much more than that if he just gives it a shot and shares his music.

    • @JusBidniss
      @JusBidniss 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Christomir Rackov Ah, no worries bro, my mistake, thanks for the reply. BTW, I am a new Masse fan, just found him the other day. I checked out his Loudr store just now (see comments) and found an original work there, Blur! Looks like I'll need to buy that and give a listen when I get some more time tomorrow! And maybe there are others..... :)

      @@mikemasse Wow! I'm here today working my way through all your work. (And it's fantastic! I keep saying thank you and I keep meaning it.) And you were here a couple weeks ago informing someone who was here SEVEN YEARS ago that not only is the music still alive, but tickets are available! I sincerely hope you two get to meet up.
      Should anyone somehow not pick up on how much you care, this kind of thing will definitely help!
      I really appreciate your performance of this great song! It's not one people should attempt without feeling something. Those feels are the song, required. Felt it Mike. Like tears, and that's as it should be for this one.

    How in the world did you hit those high notes at the end!? Incredible!
