Lyrics:

Well if I ever see the morning
Just like a lizard in the Spring
I'm gonna run out in the meadow
To catch the silence where it sings

I'm gonna force the Serengeti
To disappear into my eyes
And when I hear your voices calling
I'm gonna turn just inside out

Well if I ever get to slumber
Just like a mole deep in the ground
Hell, I won't be found

Deep in the dust forgot and gathered
I'll grow a diamond in my chest
I make reflections as the moon shine
Turn to a villain as I rest

Well if I ever get to slumber
Just like a mole deep in the ground
Hell, I won't be found

I know there is a hollow
I need to fill it with a draft
Of all the words that I won't say
And with a quiet whisper
I send a curse upon the day
That never used the Sun to see the light

I'm gonna float up in the ceiling
I built a levee of the stars
And in my field of tired horses
I built a freeway through this farce

Well if I ever get that slumber
I'll be that mole deep in the ground
And I won't be found
More TTMOE, please!
Perhaps a job in the circus would be a more appropriate vocation?

There's a treatment for that.

good grief! {#Drunk}
Thank you Cletus the Slack-Jawed Yokel. 1.
I hope he's not found.
{#No} 
Yeah, some will dislike it, he's not middle of the road which is good, certainly grew on me when I started listening to him
The rating for this song is shameful! I just gave it a 10 to get it higher.
I can't even begin to describe in how many ways and to what depth this is bad.  Really bad...

So?  He still can't sing slop up an alley.

of course, I hit mute before I scored it a 1.
just awful. really, really, awful.

 
Don't sit on the fence - let us know how you really  think ;)

The voice is 'distinctive', right enough, and 'characterful' - the sort of voice that you either love or hate. It gives me earache so it's the mute for me, but others will think it's the dog's bollox, I'm sure.

6 people got frightened by his astounding height.

Yeah luckily many people do not share your opinion on this artist. Give him another chance please.

It is shocking to hear the negative comments about this artist. I urge Radio Paradise to continue playing this incredible artist's music. The 2010 releases are nearly in everyone's top 20. Luckily, the comments on this station do not represent the overall feeling of how amazing "Tallest man on earth" is. Try "Like a wheel", or "The dreamer" from the 2010 ep "Sometimes the blues is just a passing bird". Please Radio Paradise, start playing this guy's incredible music. The more you hear, the more you will be hooked. He is a lyrical and musical genius.

truly awful voice.  don't know if the songwriting is any good because I can't stand to listen.

oh Bill, sometimes you just like to make us pay for all the good music you play, don't you ?

It's not so much that you won't be found but that you were ever found at all.
YEEEEES!!
I have a feeling we will be hearing a lot more on RP of this young man from now on :D
And I thought Bob Dylan had an obnoxious voice...
A joke? Yes he is, no kidding.

...this is pretty good; nice to hear in the mix...
YEA BILL!!!! Thank you for this!
