"This place was special… The sheer power of this planet never ceases to blow my mind, I am constantly in awe of the mysticism and great spirit that pulses beneath our feet, so many stories, so much we don’t know.. Storm Boy was the perfect song to play here, enjoy."

LYRICS for Storm Boy
When will you learn that the more you take
Means the less that you have at the end of the day
Stillness of the mind is so hard to embrace
Freedom of the heart is what we crave
And we sit by the river with a cup of tea
Watch the movement of the tide in the gentle breeze
Pelican drifting slowly looking for a feed
Like Mr Percival the Storm Boy, you to me
Kookaburra calls just like he knows
And I call right back, yes I'm home
He's been with me
He's watched me grow
Through those rainy days and those rocky roads
And now everybody smiles in the setting sun
And sighs with contentment when the day is done
Hand in hand with the one you love
Feeling blessed by the magic of the moon above
And we sing
Sha la la la la...
We're just living in this beautiful world
Sha la la la la...
We're just living in this beautiful world
It's time for fire, smoke and leaves
The only mosquito repellent we need
Pay respect to the North, the South, the West, and the East
Pay respect to the spirit of this old country
Freedom in the hearts of the young and brave
Who know little of the journey of the diggers who gave
Their lives to the service and the government games
So that we could dance together on this beautiful day
And now everybody smiles in the setting sun
And sighs with contentment when the day is done
Hand in hand with the one you love
Feeling blessed by the magic of the moon above
And we sing
Sha la la la la...
We're just living in this beautiful world
Sha la la la la...
We're just living in this beautiful world
When the winter seeps into my bones
And I hear the call from the North
I will go
Yeah I will go
And everybody smiles in the setting sun
And sighs with contentment when the day is done
Hand in hand, with the one you love
Feeling blessed by the magic of the moon above
And we sing
Sha la la la la...
We're just living in this beautiful world
Sha la la la la...
We're just living in this beautiful world
Sha la la la la...
We're just living in this beautiful world
Sha la la la la...
We're just living in this beautiful world

Storm Boy is yet another soul felt connection I have with this beautiful human being. I remember the movie from my childhood so well & could relate so much to that boy's aloneness & not being listened to, respected or understood ... The adults pretending to have their 💩 together & think they know best but don't really, and the heartbreaking consequences of that. I have always loved pelicans because of this movie 🕊️

My son turned me on to Xavier Rudd and I absolutely love his music! My son lives in Colorado Springs and we live in Pennsylvania. He called late one night and told me Xavier was going to be playing at the Ogden Theater in Denver. We immediately ordered tickets and later went “road trippin” to Denver. It was the best concert I have ever seen. Xavier is such a talented musician and songwriter. I hope he plays at Red Rocks someday!

Great love to you all soul family, no matter where in this beautiful world you might reside. Be strong in these days...we will persevere and we will live to see the days when it is on Earth as it is in Heaven 🙏💓🙏
