Free Music Notes for Everyone Deserves Music
Free Music Review: Great, but...
Hit: 4 Stars
Very good as always, but only a couple of tunes have real power. I'm holding Franti to a higher standard here, due to "Yell Fire". It's still better than 99% of what is out there. Really wish he hadn't made reference to "Nick-at-Night", in what would have been an otherwise more universal and timeless song.Free Music Review: Would it have killed the song?
Hit: 4 Stars
To sing "What I am" instead of "What I be"? Great music, but damn, we have enough illiterate people in this country...Free Music Review: Spiritual

Hit: 5 Stars
Ah, another favorite Sunday work CD's. Franti manages to bring poignant lyrics to some laid back melodies. If you like Franti, check out John Butler Trio and Xavier Rudd.Free Music Review: One of my favourite albums of this decade
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a definite 5 star album ! Wonderful songs, terrific vibrant playing, socially-aware lyrics, and underlying all of this music is a strong source of positive energy, which would seem to originate from the person of Michael Franti himself. There are uplifiting soul-inspired songs , such as the breezy Feeling Free, the rousing and chorus-driven title tune Everyone Deserves Music , and my favourite song on the album the inspirational, fantastic Yes I Will. Songs don't come better than this one! Slow tune Love Why Did You Go Away has a gradual building tempo, while more immediate tunes like the pretty Pray For Grace, the opening track What I Be and the funk wordplay of We Don't Stop also work very well. Definitely check out the landmark song Bomb The World, which is a cry for peace in a time when there seem to be new wars starting up in lots of places. It's a great song that everyone ought to pay attention to. It also appears in a second, rather different dub-influenced version as the penultimate track. Love Invincible and quiet final track Crazy Crazy Crazy round out this invaluable recording that manages to use many different musical elements to comprise a wonderful whole.
I'm sure it's been said before by others, but everyone deserves THIS music !
One of my favourite albums of this decade so far.
