FROM THE MIGHTY MIKE WEB SITE.............................................................................................


Salutations my friends,
I'm writing to you today in response to your sign-up at the old "ning" site for Mike White. When you listed talents you have to offer, in some way you offered creativity, positivity and artistic expression. There is a group project forming which would be greatly helped by your offering of talent and skills to both honor Mike's memory, yet also to send out a positive message about his passing.
Julian has come up with a fantastic idea of creating positive synergy around Mike's memory... through song and music,
He has begun the lyrics... and while I've been good with words in the past, I find it difficult to write lyrics without a tune... and I dont read guitar music... that was Mike's family specialty.
below are the lyrics begun by Julian, the idea is to record these (or others) for placing on YouTube, then embedding the videos via widgets into the MightieMike website. Dont worry, I do know how to handle the technical stuff~ just need video clips~!!

If there is a way you'd like to help~ contribute~ lend voice or instrument~ please contact Julian at julian.gwangju@gmail.com
Feel free to improve lyrics~


1.)
Chorus
Mightie Mike loved Korea
He lived here for a few years.
He could have stayed away this time
But he chose to come back again.
Mightie Mike loved the PCs
and high technology
always wanting new games
and flat screen TV's
Mike just bought a new phone
with radio and TV
Mightie Mike did love Korea
and Korean technology
Chorus
Mightie Mike loved Korea
He lived here for a few years.
He could have stayed away this time
But he chose to come back again.
Mike he loved animals
he loved so many parks
Everywhere in Korea
there's a neighborhood park
With rescued puppies
and his faithful dog Spot
Mike could always be seen
there, hanging out in the park
Chorus
Mightie Mike loved Korea
He lived here for a few years.
He could have stayed away this time
But he chose to come back again.

Mightie Mike loved his mother
Like he loved very life itself.
He told her he loved her
Kissed and hugged her
then Went on by himself.

Mightie Mike loved Korea
He loved the sauna too.
He could have stayed away that time
Now he's not going back again.

The 14 other men there
And the sauna workers too
The emergency services phone operator
And police need no thank you.
Chorus
Mightie Mike loved Korea
He lived here for a few years.
He Should have stayed away this time
Because Korea didn't love him back.
