If anyone is still wondering about the lyrics, it's a tribute to victims of Hurricane Katrina - New Orleans, the Big Easy. The reason it is so upbeat is because that's the way New Orleans mourns. He shared the story and the inspiration on "In the Artist's Den."
Raphael your Cd is amazing. All the songs on your Cd are off the chart. This is what I call DAM GOOD MUSIC! Thank You. Please do not let this music die.
I just have to comment on this song,since I am from New Orleans and was there during and after the storm. Where was this song when we needed it most? The song just blew me away! Not only did it bring back memories of that horrible experience,but also of my childhood church going days! This song not only speaks for katrina victims but you can apply it to life in general! That is what I call soul music at its best,when it touches the "soul".
I recently heard this at a party and was instantly hooked. I mean, damn, if this isn't "good" in your opinion, then your opinion doesn't warramt merit. l2music imo. DAMN IT MAN "SOOOMEEBOOODYYY TEELLLL MEEEEEE"
Wow!
The horns just came in and flew me straight to the Big Easy
