Citizen Cope, a.k.a Clarence Greenwood, is an American singer-songwriter, producer, and performer. His music is commonly described as a mix of blues, soul, folk, and rock. Cope's compositions have been recorded by artists such as Carlos Santana, Dido, Pharoahe Monch, and Richie Havens. In his solo career, "Let the Drummer Kick" from his 2002 album, Citizen Cope, went RIAA-Certified Gold. In 2004, he produced and released The Clarence Greenwood Recordings, followed by Every Waking Moment in 2006. In 2010, Cope founded his own record label, Rainwater Recordings, allowing him to exert full creative control. Free from the marketing entreaties of the major record labels, he released The Rainwater LP later that year. One Lovely Day followed in 2012. After taking a hiatus from his own record releases, Cope came back stronger than ever, releasing Heroin and Helicopters in 2019 and The Pull of Niagara Falls in 2021. He is currently slated to release another album in 2023.
Just numb your cares away with drugs...that is what this song emphasizes. It is false. True joy will never be found here. Only by the Word of God. Are you turning away in favor of false prophecy?
One of my favorites!! 💃🏻🎯❤️🔥 Just saw CC play this in Redding with my family - He’s one of those amazing musicians that are just as good live as they are on RU-vid/Recorded 🙌🏾🔥#sideways🎶 ❤
What the hell is that Tivoli? I mean it's a park in capital of Slovenia-Ljubljana and it's a city in Italy near Rome but what does it mean in this song?
