Put Your Hand On The Radio

from Debut by Andy Stochansky

about

I grew up in Toronto and when I was in my early 20's I moved downtown to be on my own. The city has a huge Jamaican population which means that when you see live music there is a good chance you can catch something from that island. Seeing reggae was a real game-changer for me at that age.
I wrote this the day after Trump was elected. The line
"Hit hard like Muhammad Ali" was probably the only way, I could describe what happened.

lyrics

Put Your Hand On The Radio

Hit hard like Muhammad Ali
Hit the canvas
Count 1 2 3
We haven’t even hit bottom yet
Everybody's gotta catch their breath

Hit hard like Muhammad Ali
Hit the canvas
Count 1 2 3
We haven’t even hit bottom yet
Everybody's gotta catch their breath

Cause there's still more to come
But you're not the only one

So put your hand on the radio
You can feel my heartbeat
Hit play repeat
Live in stereo
I play you this broadcast
Till satellites fall
Till satellites fall

March march
In the key C
For 3 minutes on this frequency
Dear world need to let you know
Skies falling but you're not alone
My PSA to you
My 4 chords and the truth

Put your hand on the radio
You can feel my heartbeat
Hit play repeat
Live in stereo
I play you this broadcast
Till satellites fall
Till satellites fall

Not gonna run run run
I’ve got this song song song
Homemade melody

Solo

Put your hand on the radio
You can feel my heartbeat
Hit play repeat
Live in stereo
I play you this broadcast
So put your hand on the radio
You can feel my heartbeat
Hit play repeat
Live in stereo
I play you this broadcast
Till satellites fall
Till satellites fall
Till satellites fall
Till satellites
Till satellites
Till satellites fall
