Malcolm – The Swedish Gospel Thermostat
You came from northern Sweden land - to teach Gospel to us in extent.
You are a tenor that´s for sure! But you can use your voice like a soprano pure.
You repeat all the songs and can do a great trick, you sound like my old tape recorder - rewinding real quick.
Your moves are the signs to tell us what to do. Sometimes we understand, sometimes we have no clue.
It´s not hot in the church but you are sweating a lot, you explain every song all the rhythm and the plot.
We did unison, harmonies, changed keys a lot, some of us thought, we will make it - not!
You speak little German and your words are quite weird, you can say „alle zusammen“ and „kapiert?“
As a choir - you tell us - we do temperature control. You as the conductor are the biggest thermostat of all.
Sopranos please listen and then sing along. The audience has to feel it - the heat of each song.
You would love to play with Alex in a piano bar. Malcolm, you are the perfect gospel star.
Thanks for being with us for a while. Hopefully we also impressed you - with our style.
