hello everyone , hope this finds you well !!
thank you all so much for the incredible response to whispers 2 and last weeks video ! i think it got more shares than any other video that we’ve released and i really do appreciate it . its so amazing to see you all get behind the charity aspect of the project so passionately and makes me really excited about what we can achieve together :-)
here is the second little taster from the album .
the song is called “david” - i used to play it live all the time so some of you might remember it …. its about a guy that i met outside a hostel that i was staying at in glasgow a few years ago and its definitely one of my favourites from the new record .
once again a huge thank you to bryan dos reis for his remarkable film making talent and patience .
really hope you like it and (sorry , i know I’m a broken record ….. ) please share it around if you can - it makes such a huge difference .
loads of love . mike x

This song makes me sad. I believe there are many Davids out there. People who drink a lot but not alcoholics. People who have various reasons to be unhappy but not enough for others to help them. People who are not homeless but still not having a home. People who are sitting on very bottom of the society while still not being outcasts. People who survive and not living, people who have no hope because they lost illusions and dreams. And there is no help for this sort of people. They are not criminals or bad yet their closest ones hate them anyway. Society helping mentally ill, homeless, imigrants and gods know who else but nobody cares or helps people who earn just enough to pay tax, rent and child support, leaving almost nothing for themselves. This society can be fucked up sometimes.

Here I am an adult man crying over a song that I hear for the first time. Can't stop listening to it. Thank you Mike for your work and sharing your songs with us. You touch my heart.

Beautiful lyrics from a great artist. Whenever people say this generation doesn't have good music I laugh and listen to your songs.

He sings from the heart & its the truth, all of his songs hit home.
I am a truck driver and listen to his songs going down the road.
Thanks for making the long miles shorter......Donna

I love how you write songs about the people you meet on your journeys. So amazing and so touching. Can't get enough of your music. Love Riding to NY too. and my fav.... Feather on the Clyde.

These kinds of songs (this, Riding To New York, Bullets) are usually my favorites.

He sang this song live in September. What a beautiful song and everyone was dead silent.
I have to admit: I cried. It was so pure and beautiful. We love you <3

I met a 'David' barely 2 years ago. He left Ghana to teach in Nigeria for 40 years and never came back home till 2017. He doesn't drink nor smoke, but he came back with nothing. His only daughter is now in her mid 40's. She never called. He died 2 weeks ago and since he has no family to bury him, I did.
Five years ago, I was touched by this song...I didn't know my 'David' will come along in a few years

this song really reminds me of my dad. he used to drink until he falls asleep. even when he got sick and later died, he kept his sadness with him.

Can we talk about how good the actor is in the video

Oh Mike, this has been one of my favourite songs of yours for years. I've been longing for a studio version since forever, but I was always so afraid it wouldn't match up to all the times I've seen you perform it live. The rawness and heart-felt emotion. I have no idea why I was afraid. This is perfect, I was in tears before I even heard your voice. You amaze me. Thank you.

Did anyone notice that the coin at 1:16 is from Czech republic? It is not very common for a beggar in London to get czech coin (as the only one). I feel proud that in one of my most favourite songs is a coin from my homeland, with a picture of my city.

"Now I've drunk away my wealth and I'm a picture of bad health and I'm a shadow of a shadow... of a former self" DEEEEP 😢

Absolutely beautiful. Great work, I love it when songs tell a story like this one, keep it up!

Whispers II?! YES! What a wonderful way to start the day!

Listening to this song my late uncle comes to mind and I cant hold tears. Great music!

This song kinda reminds me of my father. A middle aged man who screwed up his own life beyond repair. Even the actor in the video looks like him.
I'm the kid the doesn't call.

I wonder if David knew that just another ordinary face in the crowd that talked to him for a few minutes immortalised and graced him with a song that told the world of his life.
