How ‘Bout Us (Bringin’ the Love) [feat. Pauli Carman of Champaign]
youtu.be/_0i0JmkcujI - Video

“Talk about a new tune that breaks on through to the other side .... like father, like son ... another hit classic is born.”
Bill Siddons, manager of “The Doors”

"Son re-imagines dad’s 1981 classic love song How 'Bout Us (23 weeks on the Hot 100)...writes new lyrics and records new version and makes into a global call to love one another. The song asks the BIG question: “Who will step up and come together to create the change we so desperately need?” The answer….? As his dad’s song is titled, “How ‘Bout Us.”

lyrics

How ‘Bout Us (Bringin’ the Love)

It’s been hundreds of years In a system of Hate
So the anger is real and we retaliate
But to Love is to heal- and before it’s too late
We can share what we feel- we can learn to relate
Relate to the pain-relate to the need
There’s more than enough- when we end all the greed
Now to change is to risk and to risk is to trust
Who will answer the call- How about Us?
No way to make this short and sweet
so start the healing join the fight and take a knee
Stop pretending nothing’s wrong
Can’t put this fire out- it’s burning way too strong…
(CHORUS)
Some people are made for each other

Some people can love one another for life. How 'bout us?

Some people can hold it together

Last through all kinds of weather. Can we?
People Marching on the street- This old way has to end.
Treating people like slaves- our original sin.
Cause the Spirit is pure- and its deeper than skin.
Face the change that we fear- time to make it our friend.

Now don’t you get me wrong- (What you saying to me baby?)
There is no simple way to fix it all
Let’s start something new
what could, what can, what will we do?
Too many dreamer’s hearts never get to choose
Gotta let them choose it.
(CHORUS)
Some people…
How ‘bout us How ‘bout us baby
How ‘bout us How ‘bout us Can we
How ‘bout us How ‘bout us baby
Are we gonna make it world?
Or are we gonna drift and drift and drift...?
(CHORUS)
Some people…
It’s been hundreds of years In a system of Hate
So the anger is real and we retaliate
But to Love is to heal- and before it’s too late
We can share what we feel- we can learn to relate
Relate to the pain-relate to the need
There’s more than enough- when we end all the greed
Now to change is to risk and to risk is to trust
Who will answer the call- How about Us?
(CHORUS)
Some people…
How ‘bout us - bringin' the love
How ‘bout us - living I have a dream
How ‘bout us - getting along
How ‘bout us - together we’re strong
How ‘bout us - What’s that sound? Love
The time for change has come it’s now
How ‘bout us - Learning is what’s going on
Imagine. How ‘bout us.
