about

This performance comes from a fundraiser that my friend Mark Nelson Preston assembled in London, Ontario. The venue was a huge former IMAX theatre re-christened the London City Music Theatre. I have no clue who they usually fill it with, but the small audience that showed up for our concert got a treat for sure!

The vibe was a little weird, with some performers alienated about the lack of audience, but I noted who was in a good mood and asked them to accompany myself on "Nobody's Saviour" and just "follow the changes". I was blown away, loved the sound and the space! You can't hear him at all due to a shortage of patch cords on stage, but Rehan Dalal does an acoustic lead guitar solo after the 2nd chorus.

Technical note: I actually added delayed reverb to the recording-- the venue was much "dryer" sounding than what you hear here. But this is how I remember it sounding.

lyrics

NOBODY'S SAVIOUR
(2006 Myke Mazzei)

Here I am in the dark, and I'm rambling again
Just the moon and the night sky for a friend
Nobody's saviour but my own
Came here by myself and I'm leavin' alone

Came down to talk to you, you gave me the old excuse
Where your friends and your family just don't care
Have you the will to say "I'm gonna leave today!"
When tomorrow comes knockin', will you be there?

They say that everyone... loves a clown
It's just a smile upside down
But if you catch a trace of your mirrored face
All you'll see is a frown

I make no promises to cure your loneliness
That's a will you'll discover deep inside
Grab on to what you've got, and my friend that's quite a lot
You've been running so long, call me when you find that light
