Musical Worldview: Mike Doughty, "Move On (Bloom Like the Sunlight in My Song)"
“Yeah, I believe the war is wrong
Don't believe that nations can be steered
Lead the world by smarts and compassion
By example, not coercion, force and fear”
Musical Worldview: Mike Doughty, "Your Misfortune"
“When your faith in life is gone
Come and speak to me
When you're down and all messed up
Seek my sympathy
And everybody says no, no, no
Well it's your misfortune and none of my own
Wrong, wrong, wrong
Well it's, your misfortune that sweetens my song
I can be the friend you want
I can be your confidant
I can be the
Right reminder at the right time
Throwing out the life line
Stand in the light, stand in the light, stand in the light (x2)
When your face is caked in mud
Come and speak to me
When the chill creeps in your blood
Seek my sympathy
When everybody say no, no, no
Well it's your misfortune and none of my own
Wrong, wrong, wrong
Well it's your mistfortune that sweetens my song
I can be the air you drink
Every single though you think
I can be the right notion in the mean time
Warm you like the sunshine
Stand in the light, stand in the light, stand in the light”

Musical Worldview: Mike Doughty, 'His Truth Is Marching On'
“They say that God is great
They say that God is love and I believe them
Don’t fear the random fate
I trust the hand of the Almighty and the infinite
His truth is marching on
Let me know your enormity
And my tininess
And help me see your infinity
And my finiteness
And I’m fucking starved for love
I deeply need to feel connection with the infinite
I want the nourishment
I need to drink it just like water, and it will sustain me
His truth is marching on”
