Save Ferris, "New Sound" from the Checkered Past E.P. (The Last Angry Rude Boy)
Skammentary: This is not the old Save Ferris, but a new band founded by old Save Ferris singer & frontwoman Monique Powell. The lads from Save Ferris called their new band Starpool, so I look askance at the lass continuing to use the name Save Ferris; the court's have signed off on it, so, it's licit, even if it isn't right.
All that said, SKApril isn't a charity: neither Starpool nor the new Save Ferris would be included in this month-long fête of all things ska if their music wasn't up to snuff. Our SKAffirmative Action program promotes diversity of contributors, not diversity of quality. Only the best of the best is good enough for SKApril. "New Sound" represents a genuinely new sound from Save Ferris, with much more of a reggæ flavor.
"Rude girl movin' on the dance floor,
Ain't got no problems, well, no more,
Skankin' her troubles away,
Nothin' nobody can say.
"Rudy lookin' smooth in the dance hall,
He jump in like troubles are all gone,
Rudy done move & he sway,
Nothin' nobody can say…"
