00:00Hello and welcome back to the 24th edition of Other Voices here in...
00:35We've got so much good stuff on the show tonight from St James's Church and all around town, including Dove
00:41Ellis and Florence Road.
00:42We have an incredibly special performance from Iruk, Duran Naher and Michael D. Higgins, accompanied by Miles O'Reilly.
00:48In the Imra Other Room, we're going to see a performance from Moyo.
00:51But right now, to kick it all off, this is Ambo.
01:00I want all my jokes to laugh and punch, I want chimney smoke from the high side up to low
01:09room, the graves I know.
01:12I want a razor cut and a library's best, and an old tattoo across my chest.
01:19I want to sell my books, let a Sunday flee young children there to laugh at me.
01:27I call the great Divide, my home beneath the ship, and I know I own the sweet eye, land and
01:39sea of the year I stood for thee.
01:58No rich man told me how to live, well I questioned him, the pause to give for a circumstance and
02:09a happenstance, well I hope we never meet again.
02:14And I call the great Divide, my home beneath the ship, and I know I own the sweet eye, land
02:25and sea of the year I stood for thee.
02:32Let's go.
02:33Let's get away.
02:37Let's get away.
02:38Let's get away.
02:58Oh, my heart may divide my own
03:05He can share, I know I own
03:08Between the eyes and the sea of the air
03:15I call, pray thee, my power
03:20He can share, I know I own
03:24Between the eyes and the sea of the air
03:32And I want to ride on a hundred cup
03:36I want all my jokes to land a punch
03:40I want chimney smoke from the house I dug
03:44To blow over the graves that I know
03:50And I want to ride on a hundred cup
04:20Hey, I'm living

06:40Oh, I'm so glad that you haven't figured it out.
06:45Figure it out, figure it out, figure it out.
06:51So I'm keeping a far from a passenger seat of my car.
07:01Wanna skip the ground, from your eyes and drown.
07:06No, I'm spinning, speeding up, it's great.
07:09And wrecking, burning, thank you, baby.
07:12I'm starting to excel, but it's just going to be again.
07:21Oh, I'm so glad that you haven't figured it out.
07:26Figure it out, figure it out, figure it out.

07:56Why won't you figure it out, figure it out, figure it out.
08:06Started to excel, but it's just going to be again.
08:15I'm so glad I knew I've been figuring it out
08:20Figure it out, figure it out, figure it out
08:36Figure it out, figure it out, figure it out, figure it out
08:59Please give your warmest other voices, Dingle, Wes Carey, welcome to Dove Ellis
09:36From your grace, the Sadist fails, the red blade
09:49Rallying, tallying, each head and each fight down
09:54Thought must I really lost a new day
09:59The first bullet, the harrying, carrying nightmare
10:08It's all, it's just all, it's a good
10:15So take the words of your sad fight
10:23Pass them down and let you go
10:29All the feet are going in and out, in and out, in and out
10:38One night, so you're smelling them now
10:45Lights all closed, all cities lock you up
10:51With the magnets and the pigeons
10:55And then you're my lovely station
11:00Even when I'm stuck nowhere in my bed
11:10And I hear your dreams of love
11:21So take the words of your tragic fight
11:26So take the words of your tragic fight
11:28Yeah, dancing down and let's go
11:35All the feet are going in and out, in and out, in and out, in and out, in and out,
11:40in and out
11:41All the nights, are you smelling them now?
12:04To the back teeth
12:07To the front teeth
12:15To the back teeth
12:22To the back teeth
12:28Oh, to the milk deal
12:33To the back seal
12:37And the clean up
12:40And the cutter
12:43And the copy
12:45To the stator
12:52And the dark fear
12:56And the cracked teeth
12:59To the sand
13:04Oh
13:18Thank you
13:29Michael D. Higgins, what a pleasure to meet you.
13:33Oh no, I'm delighted to be here and really to be in a community of makers of music and
13:40makers of poetry.
13:41Yeah?
13:42I mean...
13:43I find it very heartening and very encouraging.
13:46There's something so, I think, quietly profound about the president of a country having a
13:53poetic imagination and seeing everything through that lens.
13:55And what it says to the people of the country is that this stuff is important and this stuff
14:02matters.
14:03And I think you have helped to guide the people of Ireland closer to the truth of who they
14:07are because of your passion and your commitment to the arts.
14:11From the time I was a child reading books, the important thing was to share something.
14:17And you have to be able to cross the divide.
14:21But poetry, poetry is something else as well.
14:25Is that it's that space that is allowed of the unrealised fullness of humanity, as far
14:31as I see it.
14:32Yeah.
14:32There's a kind of intimacy that can be accessed in poetry through its distillation, but also
14:41in relation to the extra step beyond the rationale.
14:44And I have always a sense that it hasn't, it's how it is connected in the end that is important,
14:50because the purpose in the end is for people to hear it and to be willing to change.
14:57Of possibility, in memory of John O'Donoghue, from that wider space that is imagination, is
15:07made possible a visual beauty that dazzles and ensnares.
15:12Deep in that space lies too, in unreleased expectancy, versions of a world on bone, sending shards of
15:22light and colour that make an invitation to something truly human.
15:28They lodge in memory, making an inheritance of possibility not always realised.
15:36And in that sight yielded up by memory, to spirit at the end, it is these shards and unrealised
15:45suggestions that endure at the end, making a rich legacy of possibility.
15:53A week of sleep, thank you.
16:18Moyo, welcome to Other Voices.
16:20Tell me about your music then, how long have you been making music?
16:24I would say I've been making music now around five years.
16:28I started off initially as a record producer, so I was just behind the boards, just doing
16:33all the production stuff, working with some artists from Ireland, and at the same time
16:40I also started writing, but I would do it in secret, because I wasn't ready to show anyone,
16:45it was kind of just for myself, and I wasn't expecting to be an artist.
16:49I was very comfortable being a producer.
16:52Behind the scenes, yeah.
16:53And eventually, I think I was just writing and writing, and I got to a stage where I felt
16:57as if I had something to say, and I felt, oh, I think I should release some of this music.
17:01And then, that's how it kind of started.
17:04Yeah.
17:04Stop.
17:05Cause you did a trip to Cincinnati for you, every day's a Saturday.
17:12Smoke and problem, marijuana, but you still got a lot to say.
17:20And even in the winter you just wait for the summer day
17:24But what you gotta learn is you still got a lot to say
17:33You still got a word to play
17:39The lights turn
17:41The blinds be
