about
This is a reworking of Lou Reed's Perfect Day as an alternative national anthem for the Reclink Community Cup. The ‘Cup’ is a fun and friendly family day out, encompassing live performances from local musicians, there are activities for the kids, a range of food and beverage stalls to choose from and an opportunity for an old fashion grass roots kick-to-kick during match breaks. Most importantly the main focus of the day is on raising awareness and funding to support Reclink Australia’s programs for disadvantaged individuals. - See more at: www.reclink.org/events/reclink-community-cup#sthash.jwjD1TXd.dpuf
lyrics
1.Just a perfect place C-F
of beauty rich and rare Eb Bb
but its ours and we don't want to share Ab F- G
well not with you
2.Yes Its our perfect place
And If you try and jump the queue
We’ll lock you up on Manus island,Christmas Island or Nauru
CHORUS Oh, Its such a Perfect Place C F
We’re not going to share it with you E- F
Oh, such a perfect place C G
We’ll just keep ya hanging on A- G F
We’ll just keep ya hanging on A-G F
3.Its not such a bad place
the prison island that we’ll send you too
And maybe your children too
Fun in the sun
Its our perfect place
Sorry but weve got no room for you
And if you don't love it ,that means you too,yes all of you
CHORUS A-G F x 3 E- G-/Bb F C
C G/B G-/Bb F C repeat
Australia you’re going to reap just what you sow

This is one more reason why I wish MFTCC would tour the states (I live in Pittsburgh). Some tracks, like "Weather Coast" sound even better live than in the studio. Fantastic playing and great songs. It's a pity my copy hasn't arrived yet (ordered it in Sept) but I'm still enjoying the digital download. Philip Maye

Portland's Dao Strom describes her work as "song poems," gorgeously layered dark ambient folk soundscapes with a heavy sense of foreboding. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 6, 2020
Eerie, indescribable, and mysterious, the music of JoJo Worthington feels like it's set in some lost, enchanted forest. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 3, 2016
