Arthur Alexander - "Humming Blues in Four" Big Stir Records - Official Music Video

Artist City, State, Country: Los Angeles, California, U.S.A.

Artist Bio: There's a song on ARTHUR ALEXANDER's new album called “One Life (Is All You Got),” and one look at the man's musical resumé demonstrates that he's known it all along. Arthur's packed more creative rebirths into his five-decade career than most artists could even imagine, and hit higher heights each time. The span of Alexander's formative years, from his beginnings as a rock & roll rebel in Soviet-era Poland to his time as the driving force behind not one but two key iconic and iconoclastic bands on the late '70s New York Punk Rock/New Wave scene – the Merseybeat-inflected POPPEES and legendary proto-power poppers SORROWS – is impressive enough. But his 21st Century renaissance is every bit as exciting: Arthur's still got all the rock and roll energy of those early years, as anyone who's seen THE ARTHUR ALEXANDER BAND onstage will testify, and he's delivering records that tap influences well beyond the power pop template while still demonstrating an absolute mastery of the form. The new album …STEPPIN' OUT, due this summer on Big Stir Records, more than lives up to its title: eclectic, powerful, and daring, it's perhaps the best summation of Arthur, and everything that's made him what he is, to hit wax yet.

About the Video: For the song's video, Arthur and the core members of THE ARTHUR ALEXANDER BAND go busking on the streets of his now-native LA. "Director and cinematographer Michael Bulbenko is the brains behind the video, its concepts and execution. I just love the whole vibe his shots and location choices created. It’s a raw, no-frills affair, and it reflects the mood of the song perfectly. His attention to detail is amazing, he even managed to capture holes in my shoes!”

Song Lyrics: "Humming Blues in Four"

See lucky old man, he’s done it all
He’s been in love, been to war
worked the same job all his life
Now the job’s gone, and his wife
Sets the table still for two
Reads the papers to see what’s new
Takes a walk when the sun goes down
Kids call his name, he pays no mind, he goes…
Hmmm… Hmmm… Hmmm… Hmmm… Hmmm…
See young woman with a pretty smile
But no one’s seen it in a long long while
Works two jobs, not much time
Hair is a mess, watchin’ every dime
Just her and the kids, the old man’s gone
It ain’t easy to go it alone
Too sad to laugh, too spent to cry
The kids tucked in, she sings them lullaby, she goes…
Hmmm… Hmmm… Hmmm… Hmmm… Hmmm…
See young black kid down in South LA
Rosie, she’s down the Barrio way
Crazy in love, as can be
Dreaming the future and a family
Hear neighbors talk, parents frown
She’s not from the ‘hood and he’s not brown
Seen young love conquer all
The kids break down yet another wall…
I see young soldier coming home
Purple heart, but the legs are gone
Army wife, knock on a door
Her man ain’t comin’ back no more
What will it take till we learn
War is not the answer, my friend
Why’s the world looking so grim
And the answer… the answer is blowin’ in the wind…
Hmmm… Hmmm… Hmmm… Hmmm… Hmmm…
