The Saturday of ADE 2017 I was invited to the Boom Room at Slam FM Amsterdam… not much of my voice was left after 3 days of ADE, but it’s about the music…
Take your front row seat at the wedding of Mohawk Radio’s James Gregory and his beautiful bride, Mia! See the band, their friends and family be a part of their love and leather fantasy land ceremony. Watch James and Mia say ‘I do,’ then join them all at an amazing reception for Mohawk Radio’s latest music video, “Ready to Love.”
This day was incredibly special to us, we really did find our fairytale in ‘ol rock n roll’. We are so thankful to our friends and family who made this day so magical. A big thank you to the Big Barn Rally team, Alfie, Whitebottom farm family, Nige-Elivis, Ferne Melvin Make-up, Neil Gaw Photography, Lauren-Jaye, Oz Cahill, Judy Marsh, Hooper-Dooper dancers and of course our amazing videography team!! You all made our special day unforgettable, we felt so loved and are so blessed
Ready to Love Lyrics:
Verse:
All alone I was waiting three thousand miles at sea
I was alone and heard you calling, calling out for me
I reached out, over to you and washed up on your shores
And now I’m here, and I am ready, I could not ask for more
And I don’t know, where I’m going
Or who I’m going to be
All I know is that I need you
I need you here with me
Yeaahh yeah
Chorus:
Are you ready to love me
No I don’t know, no I don’t know are you ready to love me
No I don’t know, no I don’t know are you ready to love me at all
Verse:
Lion Heart/ Lying with you/ Lying in your arms
Two completely different strangers/ this feeling is so strong
Who you are and where you come from/ Is something that’s unknown
But we are here, and we’re together how could this love go wrong
And I don’t know where I’m going
Or who I’m going to be
All I know is that I need you
Need you beside me
(Yeahhh Yeah)
Chorus:
Are you ready to love me
No I don’t know, no I don’t know are you ready to love me
No I don’t know, no I don’t know are you ready to love me at all
(Guitar solo)
Chorus:
Ohhhh yeahhh yeah yeah
x2
Are you ready to love me
No I don’t know, no I don’t know are you ready to love me
No I don’t know, no I don’t know are you ready to love me at all
The story of peace on earth is not new and is needed now more than ever. This year has been especially filled with world events that do not resemble peace in the world.
We hope that No Ordinary Christmas will speak to the hearts of many in Kenya and around the world during this holiday season.

[Chorus]
There’s a hundred ways to play the game
Everybody wanna play the same
Nowadays all I wanna be is more like me
While everybody being more like ..
[Verse 1]
I be feelin’ like everybody in the navy
Cause they all act like only one baby
I do what I want when I want now baby
Can’t nobody tell me nothing different, mind your business
I know, I know, he just wanna get me in his bed
And she just wanna be the one to hate on me
You don’t wanna be the one to flake on me
Cause you don’t wanna be the one to lose
[Pre-Chorus]
So everybody slide to the left, slide to the right
Put your lighters up if you feel my high
Slide to the left, slide to the right
Now move your body cause we ’bout to run this red light
[Chorus]
There’s a hundred ways to play the game
Everybody wanna play the same
Nowadays all I wanna be is more like me
While everybody being more like ..
[Verse 2]
Everybody look like they all the same
Like they just up for another day
I’m one in a million, yeah
Inside your heads like you can’t find me
I know, I know, I’m more than the key to me
Not easy to unlock me
Many men try but they don’t succeed
Feels like don’t like anybody up on me

I guess you’ve heard about the Bermuda triangle
There’s something going on
Nobody seems to know just what it is
And the airforce won’t let on
It might be hole down in the ocean
Yeah or a fog that won’t let go
It might be some crazy people talking
Or somebody that we ought to know
Down in Bermuda, the pale blue sea
Way down in the triangle, it’s easy to believe
Now here’s one
You see strange shapes in moonlight
And shadows in the night
They said that wingtip seemed to brush their faces
And strangers stole their sight
Way down in the triangle
Where the sea was smooth as glass
Giving you one answer to a question
That you never thought you’d ask
Ah down in Bermuda, in the pale blue sea
Way down in Bermuda, yeah it’s easy to believe
Down in the triangle, it’s easy to believe
They came from Galveston
They came from New Orleans
And then from Bloomington, and Delaware
The used St. Petersburg, they came from Tampa
And then from Mexico, it doesn’t matter where
They all completely share,
All of those ships and planes,
A great big mystery that cannot be explained,
Down in Bermuda, in the pale blue sea
Your feeling safe in your harbour
And everything seems certain
Right next to Palm Beach and Key Biscane
Behind a velvet curtain
But then the moon goes grey with worry
And the sea turns a pale white
You better believe something strange is going on tonight
Down in Bermuda, ah, the pale blue sea
Bermuda Triangle, yeah, it’s easy to believe
Down in the Triangle, it’s easy to believe
They came from Galveston
They came from New Orleans
And then from Bloomington, and Delaware
Bermuda, the pale blue sea
The Journey, one song stands out above them all. In fact it might stand above all his songs from all his albums. That song is titled, “As You Are.” This powerful song features only a piano, lyrics of love and Mishka’s trademark voice. It puts you in a mood words can’t describe. Just close your eyes and slowly sway back and fourth to the smooth rhythm. This song will grab you. – read full review
AS YOU ARE
Pretty girls they come dime a dozen, I’m as yet to find as beautiful a woman … AS YOU ARE See, I got friends, I’ve got cousins, but I’m as yet to find as natural companion … AS YOU ARE When you came in to my life we were naive as children. Now we’ve got a few of our own our eyes are wide open. You believe in love, you were always with me and that’s the reason I keep hoping that you’ll stay … AS YOU ARE Don’t change your hair, don’t change your mind, don’t put on make up. Cos’ i just wan’t to find you there when I wake up … AS YOU ARE Never let me settle for anything less than the truth, that’s why i want to run cos you keep me in line, in so many ways you blessed my life woman your roots, naturally you shine … AS YOU ARE So don’t change your dress, your address, don’t change the day, more or less, must confess, you look great … AS YOU ARE
I wasn’t sure what to say
Big ocean wave came rolling in that day
All the way it came from Africa,
A deeper blue I never saw
And all the things that I forgot that I could feel
I wasn’t sure what to give
Truth can be hard to swallow but that’s the way I live
I often am misunderstood
Make a mess of things
When I search for good
I walk right in when I know I should just walk away
Give me a reason, give me a rhyme
Bury it deep Tell me I’m wrong or that I’m insane in the sands of time
I’m looking for truth, not someone to blame
All I want is to live as clear as Sea Glass
Now that I’m standing on the sand
Got all these pretty pieces sifting through my hands
I’ll pick them up and I’ll let them go
Let the water in, I’ll let it flow
So many things I’ll never know, I’ll never know….
Give me a reason, give me a rhyme
Bury it deep in the sands of time
Tell me I’m wrong or that I’m insane
I’m looking for truth, not someone to blame
All I want is to live as clear as Sea Glass
Now I’m standing on the shore of the Atlantic
With these seeds of love I planted
Under this majestic sky, why do I still wonder why?
All my hopes and indecisions, clouds that shimmer in the distance
Why do I still wonder why? Why?
