    "I read the news today, oh boy"... Karl Wallinger left this world, way too soon! God rest his beautiful soul. He was so gifted, talented, unique, innovative, and original, yet totally inspired by The Beatles, without even coming close to ripping off The Beatles (like so many others have done). Absolute genius, to say the least. RIP, my friend.

    Wonderful track . Karl Wallinger spent a short period with the Waterboys . Karl is a fine fella from the North Wales coast , who I believe ,used to do the mixing for Mike Peters and " The Alarm " . Another great Band from the 80's . I was fortunate to see World party at The Brixton academy , and The Forum ( Town and Country Club ) back in the 90 ' S . What I loved and still love about this band , is that they were playing superb music about this fucked up world many years ago . Unfortunately , not a lot has changed . Peace everyone , and " Goodbye Jumbo " .❤️

    [Verse 1]
    And if you listen now
    You might hear
    A new sound coming in
    As an old one disappears
    See the world in just one grain of sand
    You better take a closer look
    Don't let it slip right thru your hand
    Won't you please hear the call
    The world says
    [Chorus]
    Put the message in the box
    Put the box into the car
    Drive the car around the world
    Until you get heard
    [Verse 2]
    Now is the moment
    Please understand
    The road is wide open
    To the heart of every man
    A few simple words
    So a mule could understand
    He don't want tomorrow
    If it's just crumbling into sand
    Won't you please hear the call
    She says
    [Chorus]
    Put the message in the box
    Put the box into the car
    Drive the car around the world
    Until you get heard
    Until you get heard
    [Bridge]
    The World says
    Give a little bit
    Give a little bit of your love to me
    Cos I'm waiting right here with my open arms
    Give a little bit
    Give a little bit of your soul to me
    Cos I'm waiting to behold your many charms
    Is that love in the air?
    She says
    [Chorus]
    Put the message in the box
    Put the box into the car
    Drive the car around the world
    Until you get heard
    Until you get heard
    Until you get heard
    Until you get heard
    Until you get heard
    R.I.P. Karl, you left some love in this world that's more than moste people do!

    Kurt Wallinger pretty much created his first album by himself, although Sinead O'Conner provides some backing vocals. She is in the video for Private Revolution and Kurt helped with her debut album. Goodbye Jumbo had a band of sorts- Jeff Trott is playing the Gretsch in the video. He has had a fine career as a producer and song writer, especially in collaboration with Sheryl Crow.
