For Jean Jacques
In Memory of Louis Nicolia

Given the context of global turmoil where so many people have to face darkness and in some cases death, this song rises up in our hearts like a phoenix from the ashes.

Perhaps the Great Disease is the belief that there is an end. The truth is that those who pass, live on. Their legacy is alive in us. The future generations are inspired and guided by all who have gone before us to lead the way.

Our music film was made in collaboration with Danny Pakulski of Oddity Productions in Erie, PA.

We dedicate this song and film to Oliver's late father Jean Jacques (1945-1990). It is also in memory of Louis Nicolia (1959 - 2021) who tragically passed before the song's release.

lyrics

The Great Disease

Verse 1
My daddy grew up in the great divide
My mommy told daddy better look alive
My daddy went dancing with the holy ghost
My mommy just clapped and said go go go, said go go go

Chorus
I fought my brother to the raging seas
I lost my lover to the great disease

Verse 2
My daddy smoked guns in the middle east
My mommy ran rum at the fiddler’s feast
My daddy drank dope with the lowly king
My mommy just hoped she could only sing, she could only sing

Chorus
I fought my brother to the raging seas
I lost my lover to the great disease

Verse 3
My daddy looked up and said let me go
My mommy looked up and said rest your soul
The lover looked back and said make your bed
The brother looked back and said bring your dead, said bring your dead

Chorus
I fought my brother to the raging seas
I lost my lover to the great disease
