welcome 2 the freedom galaxy

what the fuck is up with this... such a crazy and random throwback. how insane would it be if there were a 2015/16 studio version of this.

Great (live) version, both!

Always loved his fuck-you attitude towards (the use of) drugs in this song.

But the way he sings this is just pure amuseument and fun.

The ''Clap Your Hands'' part reminds of some Janelle Monae...

Indeed let's hope he re-recorded it. wink

Maybe this indicates to a newly recorded version?

Never heard it, or even heard of it 🤷. It sounds interesting though 🤔

I just never understood where the new name came from. He performed "purple music"
in the slot where "Welcome 2 The Freedom Galaxy" was listed.

But how do these 2 things connect? I think they are two seperate things and that he
mashed them up for the sake of the live performance.

Welcome 2 The Freedom Galaxy sounds like an interesting title for a new project tho.
would have been so nice to see that come to fruition.

It would really cool if there was an album of songs he re-recorded for an album.

We know for Sure he did Extra loveable and In A Large Room.

It did appear to be a possible theme or project.

I recall seeing artwork by Spencer Derry around the same time as he did the Free Urself stuff.

On the P&M tour he tended to start Purple Music with 'welcome to the freedom galaxy' and follow with Free Urself.

.

Also, 'the freedom galaxy' is mentioned in Ruff Enuff.
