"MAN OF THE PEOPLE is about the person who stands behind the disgraced politician, the religious leader that’s been caught in a sex scandal. The wife, the girlfriend, the husband, the partner, whoever is the family, the children—the people that stand behind these figures that are disgraceful. The collateral damage. I pity these people sometimes." - SW
Lyrics:
Trust, you know how to take it
Love, you know how to fake itAnd I will be there beside you
The camera eye, the drug is just to be near youHey, well I can take rejection
Hey, what does it take to get your attention?
Cos you’re a man of the people
A man of the people
And I’m just part of the planI lie here like a dog
And think of all I would undo
Anyone would go
But I got nowhere to go toAnd what is left of us?
Now there’s only the cinders
Ambition froze me out
Like a demonic winterHey, well I can take rejection
Hey, what does it take to get your attention?
Cos you’re a man of the people
A man of the people
And I’m just part of the planHush now, the winter gets you
Hush now, the winter gets you down -
Rumor has it that this guy is the next music director of the Chicago Symphony.
He's young...

If you enjoy swing check out the band Asleep at the Wheel. They put out a lot great albums over the years. I really like their live albums - catches the spirit of swing as it should be.

Funny that you should mention that. They were the musicians and accompanying singers on the album I showed above.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

I think it's sadly telling that YouTube put this at the top of my recommended feed.

Fun Video (at least for me). LOL Video of Bruce Springsteen getting a request for a song that they have never done before (You Never Can Tell - Chuck Berry). Fun to see how they put it together.
I have zero improvisation skills with music, so would never ever ever be able to do something like this.

Not a Springsteen fan. Never have been.
(just kid you. You still have (mainly) good taste in music!)
Edit: you may like his album when he was at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. Here is one song.
