Perfectly Normal

from IN PLAIN SIGHT by Chris Fox

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    IN PLAIN SIGHT is the eagerly awaited new album release from singer songwriter Chris Fox. With plenty of time on his hands during the lockdown of 2020 he wrote this album with the express intention of not writing about himself or his feelings. So, he sat down and diligently wrote a collection of songs…… all about himself and his feelings. Here you will find ten original songs painted on a musical backdrop of Folk and Roots, Americana, Country, Blues and contemporary Transatlantic Folk. Musical Influences (to name a few) range from the Mavericks, Paul Simon, John Martyn, Transatlantic Sessions and Willie Nelson. The album features Holly Brandon on fiddle (The Magpies, Painted Sky) and John Parker on Double Bass (Nizlopi, The Willows, Jackie Oates) and was produced and recorded by Dan Wilde at Gladeside Recordings. This album reflects the thoughts, fears and joys of the everyday inspired by a multitude of events and characters that activate his surreal and somewhat feverish imagination.

about

With the impossible lifestyle standards beamed directly into our lives via social media It’s getting harder and harder to look in the mirror and like what you see, especially for young people. I wrote this song for a good friend of mine who was struggling with their appearance.

lyrics

I think that you’re perfect
Just the way that you are
I think you’re magnificent
From up close or from afar
So don’t change a hair for me
You’re in champion form
I think you’re perfectly normal

I think you look dapper
In second hand suits
I don’t mind the second hand smell
Or those second hand boots
You’ll never impress me
In Calvin Kleine jeans
You’re already complete

I think that your sexy
You come with all the right bits
You don’t need those implants
Or a pair of fake lips
So save all your money
Cos life is a gift
Well I completely adore you

Be strong beyond measure
Be a brave one, be a brute
face down your enemy
When its staring back at you
Smile at your appearance
swallow your pride
And take the world in your stride

I think that you’re perfect
Just the way that you are
I think your magnificent
From up close or afar
So don’t change a hair for me
Your in champion form

I think your perfectly normal
No don’t change a hair for me
I like you just as you are
