skwizardkid Phenomenal album, absurdly clean and heavy with deep vibes,philosophical musings and the elite sense of relaxation. Brad didn't miss with this one.

gabmercier Love the production on this. The keys and sax complement Brad's tones so beautifully. It's soothing and mesmerizing, like the process of fermentation. Favorite track: Natty Wine.

If you want it and you need it Shake your body, babe If you want it and you need it, baby My new heaven It’s your body babe Triple seven Elevate me baby and Tell me how you’d like to feel In this moment My loving will be revealed You have to be a light to yourself Not the light of a professor or an analyst or a psychologist Or the light of Jesus or the light of the Buddha or… You have to be a light to yourself In a world that is utterly becoming dark

Natty Wine 03:51
Babe I’ve tried to run away but I keep coming back We were made to love each other and I’m sure of that And the stars put on a show for free, every night While your sweet loving’s sending shivers down my spine Natty wine Natural wine Babe I’ve tried to run away but I keep crawling back You were made to stain me baby and I’m sure of that And you whispered in my ear, “baby take your time” But your sweet loving just keeps dripping from the vine
4.
I belong to you Sweetest dreams of your kiss I’ve had a neck full of them lately So I won’t reminisce I’m too deep in the midst of you, baby
5.
Flicker On! 03:16
Light a candle Be my one desire Step into the fire babe Just a candle My burning desire It’s something I can’t explain Keep the candle Burning with desire Catch a little fire babe Watch the candle It can take you higher There’s something we need to know I know it’s hard when you’re alone Just flickering on Just flickering on No sweetness lost In the unknown In loveliest dawn Just flickering on Light a candle Be my one desire Catch a little fire babe Watch the candle It can take you higher There’s something we can’t explain
6.
I’m a devotee To your sexy name You wash over me Like a sexy wave There’s a mystery In your deep blue stare Please stay close to me Cos it’s so unfair That you’re so far away I’m a bumblebee You’re a tulip babe And I feel so free When you kiss me baby So I’m on my knees Just to say a prayer For your company Cos it’s so unfair That you’re so far away
7.
Said like baby heard there’s rumours that Miyagi tried to love you to the moon and back Mr psychedelic might just pull up with the shroomie pack Its our time now like AP tryna bring the goonies back I can’t listen to that boy opinions cos we knew it’s cap The newest cat In blue and black Who’s headed back to Gare du Nord Been stranded in Geneva down to Paris Why so hard for Lord? I compliment the staff abroad Their complimentary white wine Ignoring me Pardon my expressions, no I’m quite fine I’ve been acting like a cry baby Checking facts was driving me crazy But there ain't no need to cry, baby In fact there’s only looking up Say it's the demigod Back out of the den again Mont Blanc peaks got me picking up this pen again Then again Flows is kinda foul just like embezzlement Intelligent But still ain’t got the bezzle in Talk about that knowledge we was telling them Bout how we worked the memory like an elephant Ahead of them But then again Sandman, dreams dog he was selling them Joints I need like ten of them Energized melanin And televise everything til end my friend
8.
I surrender softly in your arms And its love I’m a yarn The magic of your mouth turns me on Yes it does Be the one Who needs you baby? Don’t go I’ll never let you down I’m pleading baby, don’t go Let me be your beloved Don’t go Don’t go I touch Your soles In the midst is where you’ll never feel alone You keep the candle burning in my heart I’m alight Flicker on The enchantment of your eyes keeps me warm

You’ve been smoking again And I know that you’re scared But baby don’t cry It’s only for a while Now you’re soaking again And I know that it’s scary But baby don’t cry It’s only for a while When you hold me When you hold me tight I get a feeling It’s gonna be alright When you love me And you love me right

about

In The Midst of You finds Brad in late night lothario mode, his previous seductive style now taking a more resolutely romantic and perhaps surprisingly spiritual direction. The phrase “in the midst of you” comes from the Bible, Zephaniah 3:17, “the full quote is something along the lines of “God is in the midst of you” - basically meaning that you have to look inward for peace or enlightenment, etc. the album is about that in parts and also, as always, I tried to put a romantic twist on it so that the “in the midst of you” is about being in love with somebody. It’s kind of a juxtaposition but I’ve always enjoyed taking spiritual messages and giving them a double meaning, explains Brad. “Hopefully it’s a positive message of prostrating yourself to somebody, or to spirituality or something - but giving yourself fully to something , being in the midst…”
