At the film’s heart is a new song, PS. Feel Free by musician and disability activist John Kelly and composer Ted Barnes. The song’s lyrics bring humour, warmth and urgency to the piece, exhorting us to ‘Dress sharp. Dress colourful. Dress provocative.’
PS. Feel Free by John Kelly and Ted Barnes Take up space, dress sharp, dress colourful, dress provocative. I find myself thinking about Why hasn’t a meteor wiped us out? But the fact that we didn't get hit by a meteorite last night is miraculous and wondrous This world really is so simple at its best: Like a cup of tea or a kiss or even a chat with me. I find myself thinking about reasons to be cheerful - not the words of my hero, but the realisation: breathe Take Up Space. Dress sharp, dress provocative. Chorus The hustle and bustle, the tussles of life. Get up, and mask up, pretend to be right. No pace, no space, no time, to be myself. Here we all are we’re taking our time. We're making it up, we’re tearing it down. We don't know how to get there but PS feel free To break all the rules! I have to hear my voice to feel my awakened self. I find myself thinking about, all this to do today When I should be ... squirrels, roses and Charley the cat. What miracle can you say that is taken for granted? Sharing a struggle, I share my struggle, The man underneath the skin, who holds and caresses you. I want to watch my roses grow. One rose turns into a thousand. How do they do that? I'm watching, and I don't even notice it happening. Democratic space outside. Chorus The hustle and bustle, the tussles of life. Get up, and mask up, pretend to be right. No pace, no space, no time, to be myself. Here we all are we’re taking our time. We're making it up, we’re tearing it down. We don't know how to get there but PS feel free To break all the rules!
