Hi Forum,
I'm looking for a "Special kind of Muso" lol that would like to take a stab at Golden Fleece.
I composed this lyric as a tribute to Michael Jackson, have always been a staunch fan and never for a moment believed the slander against him. He was just a kid at heart, robbed of his childhood by the Jackson 5 professional lifestyle, Then those wolves decided to get rich by opportunity. He was investigated by 2 Sherrif's departments, as well as the FBI and the vile allegations that thrashed his name, was disproved in the Justice system, he was totally innocent!
It's comprised out of a dream I had, and a Greek Myth - Golden Fleece means" Kingship and authority." As MJ was the King of Pop, I think this fits nicely.
Chorus
He was my Golden Fleece golden fleece
Wolves took him down, Piece by piece
Law suits was their plan to succeed
Spread their lies in the name of greed
They ruined his name, to criminalize
Broke his heart ….caused his demise
V1
I dreamt I walked up Heavens stairs
Reached the top,and saw M.J. there
I said” Hey M.J. you’re still in our hearts
The moonwalk you perfected is now an art
Billy Jean, Thriller, Black & White
Still hit the airwaves, day and night
Justice has since disproved their story
You’re restored to your former glory”
Chorus
He was my Golden Fleece golden fleece
Wolves took him down, Piece by piece
Rich pickings was their plan to succeed
Spread their lies in the name of greed
They ruined his name, to criminalize
Broke his heart ….caused his demise
V2
So then M.J smiled and said to me
“Don’t worry, look around and see
This is heaven, the best place to be
My neighbor is Queen’s Freddy Mercury
Elvis is here, and also Kurt Cobain
Name of my road is Legend Lane
Jimi Hendrix lives down the street
The music goes on beat after beat
Chorus
He was my Golden Fleece golden fleece
Wolves took him down, Piece by piece
Rich pickings was their plan to succeed
Spread their lies in the name of greed
They ruined his name, to criminalize
Broke his heart ….caused his demise
V3
So I waved goodbye & walked downstairs
Saw a sign” Walk on ..Devils down there”
He stood waiting at the end of the stairs
Devil said “you not the only one who cares
You question about justice being served
I think you’ll like what’s been reserved
My V.I.P special room is waiting for them,
My reward ”Eternal Hell” will be my gem
Chorus
He was my Golden Fleece golden fleece
Wolves took him down, Piece by piece
Rich pickings was their plan to succeed
Spread their lies in the name of greed
They ruined his name, to criminalize
Broke his heart ….caused his demise
Not sure what genre would suit this, hoping that the Muso will see what suits it. But probably MJ's kind of pop genre will suit it nicely!
So if you're a Muso, a MJ fan and this appeals to you, let me know. Judging by MJ's Twitter fan base, his legend is still very much alive, and his fans miss him...........
