Mic Christopher - Listen Girl, official video.
LYRICS:
Listen girl I might
If you ask me very nice
I just might tell you the truth
Because you give me love and I like it
And charming as you might be
Listen girl you like it to
All of the corner kids
They're looking for joy
Dreaming of playgrounds and toys
Well they're dreaming no more
'Cause they've been there before
And now they just sit and absorb
Like when I couldn't get out of bed
Oh I could hardly walk
But I come here to muse
I come here to talk
To say listen girl ...
And the fluids
That hold me in my mind
A candle in the way
To falling back in time
And beer
The wilful little tout
That brightens up my nights
But hoodoo when I'm awake

Weird (I guess).
Most of this video looks like it was filmed in NYC, but about 3:32 there is a shot of a rock in a stream that looks exactly like the rocks from the shores of the river Rhine. Anybody have any trivia about this? Just curious.
God bless your soul Mic. It's hard not to cry every time I listen to his voice, his perfectly honest talent. What a great loss.

Mic you are a legend , and you live on in my and carmel's dreams. God speed my brother

Such a great shame he passed, his talent and warmth are missed by many. At least he left us with a superb solo album to remember him by, and with people like Glen and Marketa covering his songs live he will live on in some way. R.I.P Mic

It was NYC. He went back to where he was born as he was born in NY.. Lisa Hannigan was there. Somewhere's there's another video of this trip and they take the subway to Coney Island near the end. If I'm not mistaken, Glen Hansard was on this trip.
The year before his death he had had a motorbike accident which injured his head and neck. That next year, he had the fall in Holland. Maybe it was too much for a body to bear. Two head injuries.

He fell on some slippery stairs and busted his dome. Sad way to go.

Died in norway in 2001. He was there for a gig and was out one night and slipped on a step. He fell into a coma then and died shortly after...R.I.P. Mic

he was touring with the Waterboys in Holland. When he was out after the gig he fell down some steps and banged his head. He passed away after ten days in a coma. His friends worked to finish the album he was recording, and 'Skylarkin' was released on his first anniversary.
