every now and then i remember this exists and i have to listen to it repeatedly. i know it so well. need a version on streaming services desperately, it’s so good.
I've just seen the film "A Jazzman's Blues" and I loved it, Joshua Boone's performances were outstanding, his voice is terrific...I loved the story...Thanks, Mr. Perry!
I just saw Joshua Boone in "A Jazzman's Blues" and I loved how he sings and acts!! I wish him great success in his artistic career!! He is a very handsome man!!❤❤❤❤
OH MY GOSH I JUST NOW NOTICED HER LITTLE JUMP AFTER HE SAYS "TAKE A RUNNING JUMP FROM THIS BRINK" EPHIE AARDEMA IS A PRECIOUS TREASURE WHO MUST BE PROTECTED AT ALL COSTS 🥺
I'm having a hard time making out the words towards the middle because of the video quality and I really wanna understand the story because it sounds epic. Can someone help?
Your interest is very appreciated. It's a song that is in a brand new show I've been writing. I'll be sharing more along the journey, but my hope is that you will be able to see it one day and all will be explained. mwahaha
I can’t stop listening to this- I love how simple the song is to understand- I can instantly picture the girl/boy singing this and the story that it tells. The fact that Taylor (a queen) is singing helps too 😂❤️
Hey man, I stole that riff on "of" at the end at certain performances of the production I played Quasimodo in, hope you don't mind haha! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EQEFg2DBzJo.html
Every morning in my hometown All the people just scurry around But not for coffee or morning tea You see, there’s something different about living in victory city There’s the banker whose just been robbed It’s not abnormal, it’s part of the job It’s not a question of if but when and then there’s something different about living in victory city Cause in victory city, you’re bad or good But which one is right? That’s a question you should ask It’s one that you might ask to a dad If you had such a dad who’s not a superhero So... Every day is the same old thing The same old henchmen, the same old dull routine The same old villian with the same old scheme Here’s the thing, my life’s stuck in a rut in victory city Nine million citizens call it home So why is it then I feel so all alone? A blur of faces all rushing past, so fast I wish today were my last in victory city Cause in victory city, you’re good or evil But which one is right? You wouldn’t believe all the bullshit you hear just spewing out of your mom When you ask where good and bad came from I want more Than what my parents’ textbooks tell me More A better life is what’s next for me To soar And someday, I’ll fly away And you will hear me say No more victory city No good or evil No heroes or villians, just normal people In a town, not a city, with a church and a steeple Where I can find someone who will love me Without my powers Who just loves me And that would be my victory Finally, I’d be free In my victory Every morning I wipe my eyes And look up to at brand new sunrise But as I focus, it’s just as I feared I’m still here In victory city
Very close. Bonus points for doing both versions of the 4th verse. Since this song is the titular song of my musical, the lyrics are still VERY in flux, but it makes my heart swell that you took the time to type these out. Thank you. Every comment on every video I've put up means so much to me.

Every day is the same old thing The same old henchmen, the same old dull routine The same old villian with the same old scheme Here’s the thing, my life’s stuck in a rut in victory city Every man that I try to meet Wouldn’t look at me twice on the street But when I’m toting my cape and mask, they ask “Yo girl, can I tap that ass?” In charming victory city Cause in victory city, you’re good or evil But which one is right? You wouldn’t believe all the bullshit you hear just spewing out of your mom When you ask where good and bad came from I want more Than what my parents’ textbooks tell me More A better life is what’s next for me To soar And someday, I’ll fly away And you will hear me say No more victory city No good or evil No heroes or villians, just normal people In a town, not a city, with a church and a steeple Where I can find someone who will love me Without my powers Who just loves me And that would be my victory Finally, I’d be free In my victory Every morning I wipe my eyes And wake up to a brand new sunrise But as I focus, it’s just as I feared I’m still here In victory city
