GRAHAM BROWN PLEADS FOR EMPATHY WITH HIS "JUST LIKE YOU AND ME

Graham keeps the songs coming.........not that long ago we posted his 'First Impressions', and now here we are again, this time with 'Just Like You and Me


This time around Graham has his political hat on again. Just Like You and Me is a call out to those amongst us who seem to think that refugees are somehow different, somehow less human than regular Humans Being...........somehow undeserving of our generosity and support. Humans Being?  What are they ?  Prize for the first correct entry.

 

Anyway, Graham says no...........we can do better, we can't continue to persecute people who do no more than flee brutality, terror and starvation.

 

It's a very raw issue in Australian politics, and here, Graham makes his feelings clear.............we can and should do a lot better! Not good enough Australia.

 

Graham's song came together fairly quickly. We put down the basic tracks intending to use them as a guide, but as often happens, we realised the basics were pretty darn good. So then it became a matter of what to add. In the end it really came down to Paul adding some guitar licks and Graham adding some percussion.

 

We like the way it came up. What about you ?  Take a listen..........click HERE
