BUY HERE: This was the third song I wrote after I taught myself to make whole songs back in 03. I sampled the opening few bars of Nico's mournful, lugubrious These Days and turned it into a thing of joy. I got Lois Winstone to sing the chorus, but she said my demo sounded great as it was, and to leave it like that. So I did. Then I took it to New York and put a children's choir on it. Billy Joel's dentist gave me $3000 worth of free dentistry because he said this song “will outlive us all“. He also gave me a pair of those awesome orange visor things they put over your eyes when you're getting your teeth lazered. Wonchop did this video back in '05 as a demo for a potential full animation that, for a number of crap reasons, never happened. The demo is ace regardless. Upped here with the mastered version of the song, as opposed to the lo-fi version he was rocking with on his page. Oh! What A Glorious Thing is taken from my debut LP, When We Were Young. . I predict it will be number one on lots of charts at some point. AKIRA THE DON OFFICIAL: TWITTER; FACEBOOK: BUY Akira The Don CDs, T Shirts, MP3s and more:
