Mikes brilliance as a vocalist composer, guitar player and wizard of sampling and looping just speaks for itself, but how good and tasteful is this percussionist and what great harmonies, a remarkable inspiring duo that sound like a six piece band that's so in the pocket its infectious!

[Steve-eced]

Mike is a genius, that goes without saying. But, can we take a minute to recognize dude on bongos because he fuckin killed it!

[ryanvicente]

This song has the best key change I've ever heard 😍

[salvadorformento]

This guy is in another level! Just perfect groove, a prodigy of rythim.

Super skill artist, thank you so much for posting . I met Mike Love in the streets of downtown Hilo in March of 2021. He is such a humble performer!

[nicolas_explorama]

In a world of endless tasteless creation, that one totaly wow me away

[TwanBraccoGartner]

This is unbelievable. So beautiful, so much craftsmanship. Can't believe this is live (and life). Thank you, Mike & Sam.

[daiiahi]

Again, one amazing artist. Can't pigeon hole this guy into any category. He just excels in each and every way. Love his vocal range! Excellent!

[Bassalicious]

This performance is absolutely unbelievable. I listened at least half a dozen times to the entire session and I literally cannot believe this ACTUALLY went down.
You're an incredibly talented fucking genius, Mike Love!

lyrics, ,
I've had enough of this foolin' around
Being knocked down and playing the clown
This city life was never meant for me
I've got to get back to the country

So I'm going to spread my wings, fly away
I can't stay another day
I'm leavin' out of babylon
I'm movin' on

Come rally all my people it's time we move
Oh if you're stuck you got to groove
Come on and shake the dust off of your bones
You don't want to be left alone

Cause we've been tricked and fooled for so long
Held captive down in the babylon
So listen to your heart to show you the way
Don't get caught up in hearsay

I've had enough of this foolin' around
Being knocked down and playing the clown
This city life was never meant for me
I've got to get back to the country

Cause everytime I go to town
I see the policeman with his ticket book in his hand
He says license registration and insurance please
He already knows I ain't got none of these

Cause I'm a natural dread just trying to survive
Jah knows I ain't gonna work no 9 to 5
But I got to provide for my youths and my wife
And make sure that they live a good life
But babylon just won't let us be who really want to be
And we've been troddin' for so long
How many more miles 'til we're free

I'm crying from the mountaintop
Oh babylon set my people free yeah

Can't the heathens see
I've had enough of this foolin' around
Being knocked down and playing the clown
This city life was never meant for me
I've got to get back to the country
I've had enough of this mentality
That's poisoning all humanity
It's rising all around me so my man I must flee
I've got to get back to the country

So I'm going to spread my wings, fly away
I can't stay another day
I'm leavin' out of babylon
I'm movin' on

Spread my wings, fly away
I can't stay another day
I'm leavin' out of babylon
I'm movin' on
I'm groovin on

I just want to say that I found this song while 2 tabs into an acid trip
6 months ago and because of this songs message, I completely dropped my
shopping addiction, stopped using cocaine, quit drinking, quit all my
toxic friends, quit my social media addiction, im saving money to leave
the country, stopped eating nothing but fast food and I went vegan. I
listen to this often to remind myself of what matters. We all know how
to be happy, we just have a hard time applying it to our lives. I've
never been happier and healthier. Thank you for the amazing music and
powerful message, dude. Take back your knowledge, friends.
