    Just sent this to a team member at work for our SONG OF THE WEEK!!
    FREEDOM is what we need more of NOW:
    - more love
    - more joy
    With all of our liberties being challenged in the USA
    - mandatory vaccine
    - stay at home orders
    - requirements for our babies
    - requirements for public servants
    We welcome this good energy ❤
    Let Freedom Ring (or sing) ✊🏾

      Studios will spin your records on the big media stations, but they'll take around 80% that's not really a good deal for someone already doing shows and keeping 100% of their living.

    He takes me to church almost everyday and he dont even know it that's the best part. As a former musician in my earlier life I jam his music everyday. If I was able to put the words I feel inside on paper the way he does I would have wrote this song.

    I'm looking for freedom
    I've gotta get free
    You'll give me that feeling
    It's rushing through me
    Amazing
    Vibration
    I'm chasing that spark in the night
    Captive
    Reactive
    I'm asking to show it to me
    'Cause I've been searching around
    Turning every stone
    Spun the world upside down
    I can't leave it alone
    And everyday when I rise
    You break me from my chain
    Supernatural high
    Gets me out my way
    I'm looking for freedom
    I've gotta get free
    You give me that feeling
    It's rushing through me
    Get free, baby
    Die young, honey
    Drink up, baby
    Make love to me
    Get free, baby
    Die young, honey
    Drink up, baby
    Make love to me
    Electric
    Infectious
    It's spreading all over my mind
    Amazing
    Vibrations
    I'm chasing that spark in the night
    'Cause I've been searching around
    Turning every stone
    Spun the world upside down
    I can't leave it alone
    And everyday when I rise
    You break me from my chain
    Supernatural high
    Gets me out my way
    I'm looking for freedom
    I've gotta get free
    You give me that feeling
    It's rushing through me
    Get free, baby
    Die young, honey
    Drink up, baby
    Make love to me
    Get free, baby
    Die young, honey
    Drink up, baby
    Make love to me
    Hallelujah pumping right through ya
    Holy rolling make me feel golden
    Hallelujah pumping right through ya
    Holy rolling make me feel golden
    Hallelujah pumping right through ya
    Holy rolling make me feel golden
    Hallelujah pumping right through ya
    Holy rolling make me feel golden
    I'm looking for freedom
    I've gotta get free
    You give me that feeling
    It's rushing through me
    Get free, baby
    Die young, honey
    Drink up, baby
    Make love to me
    Get free, baby
    Die young, honey
    Drink up, baby
    Make love to me

    Love the band. Bass player's face says it all. Even though it looks very early in morning or later in day, he is inside the groove, a bubble of rhythm. Faces of band should have been lit better, warmer. They deserve a natural look to go with their earthy smokin groove. Love it.

  • @thehookupcupid
    @thehookupcupid Před 8 lety +66

    Do you guys not realize that so many songs have the same chord progressions? Melodies and rhythms can also coincidentally sound like another song, or what not. But, let's be serious, if there's anyone who can write their own lyrics, melodies, hooks, etc., it would be Allen Stone. He doesn't need to copy anyone. The talent is there.

    • @thehookupcupid
      @thehookupcupid Před 8 lety

    • @blacklabelmansociety
      @blacklabelmansociety Před 8 lety +6

      +Alfie Neale actually there are 12 notes. A, A#, B, C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, and G#. Chords are the combination of these notes. Therefore, we have tons of possibilities here!
