David Ford: Sun Studio Sessions "To Hell With the World"

[1GaZa6]

In my own opinion today artists like David Ford are/should be much more respected for not choosing to give in to the mainstream artist/ bands which become puppets. on a string.From what i can see he makes his music and puts his emotion into it as an outlet for his feelings, NOT for the glory,fame and money that goes with being a sell out.

I have full un-dyeing respect for David Ford and all other Musicians like himself.

[1GaZa6]

"why is he not picked up by labels"He's not mainstream.Yes i feel he is a severely underrated artist but he's everything the record companies hate.(he's an individual),I found Slipknot said it best when a reporter asked "why do you have goat logos on your jumpsuits" the instant reply was from Shawn Crahan "Because, we are not a bunch of sheep following a flock" Davids opinionated lyrics and unique style scare record labels that they might not make money of something so "different"

[rupman27isback]

David Ford for president!

[Atomicflash500]

this guy sounds like everybody else these days....sucks

[rupman27isback]

@Atomicflash500 HAHAHAHAHA!!! yeah right!! ur on crack

[littlestar3103]

a masterpiece - beautiful - honest - eloquent.... perfect!!! I can't think of anything that sums up this song (and all of his songs) as well as just perfect...... he's a wonder, truly and utterly, there is magic in the air when you hear his voice ringing out - especially live, his music awakens something in your heart that lies dormant otherwise.......

[acox2009]

Its awful someone this talented gets ignored, while artists like Justin Bieber sell millions of records, David Ford is THE most under rated musician.

[SunStudioSessions]

@acox2009 that's why we created to the show to do our part to shine the light on many great new artists out there in the world- thanks for stopping by!

[rupman27isback]

@acox2009 Agreed!

[GlenRoseOnline]

I heard this song once, and was caught. What a Masterpiece of a song! Really beautiful! I dont understand why this song hasn`t been picked up by a major record label and been violently promoted. It Is a hit..........WAKE UP!!!!

[SunStudioSessions]

@GlenRoseOnline we agree - thanks for tuning in!

[SaKe875]

Brilliant!

[MrPsychodelicacy]

He looks like a Tom Waits reincarnation.

[ChillpointNews]

This is the best song by David Ford. Magnificent.

[tomreeeq9898]

Yet another absolutely brilliant song from an absolutely brilliant artist - a very humble human being.

Im very appreciative of the fact that David has been so successful without the help/hindrance of the corporate music industry.

Classic interview with David:

Reporter: When did you get started in the industry?

David: I'd like to think I never got started in the industry.

[ohnothatsnotgood]

love it

[Akazamaril]

Fantasy voice with piano acompany. I like it, very much.

[craizyfraizy]

is this on itunes?

[nokotan]

It should be. He released 3 new EPs "Pages torn from the Electrical Sketchbook" I think this is on the second one but I'd advise getting them all, especially the 3rd one for Hurricane and Demons (a song from his old band)

[LeePL]

yes it is, it's track 2 on Pages Torn From The Electrical Sketchbook Vol 2

[Halfdannn]

yes, its called "to hell with the world"

[selmalovestodance]

haha

[henry050607]

when ford sings a song, to listen is to be enlightened, moved, or just simply in a state of awe.

[calymere06]

You listen here, my friend. If the mass media or if the world, as a whole, ignores what you say... it's only because they can't take their "righteous" earplugs out yet. You sing words that cross all boundries...

I, for one, will stand indefinitely.. I choose this, I choose this, I choose this...

I choose this.  -Caly

[SoCalRunner07]

By the way, this song is called, "To Hell With the World"

[Tzontonel]

awesome !!!

[londonurbanfox]

Another awesome track. David Ford makes singers like Damien Rice appear pretty ordinary. Presumably this is not on itunes yet as he indicates it is not quite finished.

[SteveMichaelRogers]

i dont think it's fair to compare David Ford to Damien Rice. They are completely different musicians. Just enjoy them both or one of the two if you want. I hame a huge fan of them both. They both have an untouchable quality about them in different ways; things Damien Rice does can't be equalled, and the same with David Ford

[Gandalf4173]

@londonurbanfox :O

Damien and David are in my mind equals! Both can put forward such emotion and power in such simple tunes. But I think we are agreed that is better than the rubbish on the radio.

[NanObrien]

David "Victory of Change" for the untitled song, I love it like all the rest!!  Nancy

[ChristieConsulting]

This is great!!!

[dwibberl]

I'm biased, but that is the goddamn Elvis loving shit!

get over yourself and hear without filters
