Episode 148 In this Arteetude podcast, Schlich performs his campfire version of THE LOGICAL SONG. Originally by Supertramp.., which Schlich performed and is considered by him as a psychedelic version with a reference to Surrealism as a healing tool to overcome anxiety in uncertain times like today.

"The Logical Song" is a song by English rock group Supertramp that was released as the lead single from their album Breakfast in America in March 1979. It was written primarily by the band's Roger Hodgson, who based the lyrics on his experiences of being sent away to boarding school for ten years.

The Logical Song is as well about human nature and growing up. when we are young, we are so idealistic and fascinated by everything and have such creative, beautiful and pure thoughts. but as we grow, society forces it out of us.

Lyrics

The Logical Song

performed by Detlef Schlich

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful

A miracle, oh, it was beautiful, magical

And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily

Oh, joyfully, oh, playfully watching me

But then they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible

Logical, oh, responsible, practical

Then they showed me a world where I could be so dependable

Oh, clinical, oh, intellectual, cynical

There are times when all the world's asleep

The questions run too deep

For such a simple man

Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?

I know it sounds absurd

Please tell me who I am

I said, now, watch what you say, they'll be calling you a radical

A liberal, oh, fanatical, criminal

Oh, won't you sign up your name? We'd like to feel you're acceptable

Respectable, oh, presentable, a vegetable

Oh, take, take, take it, yeah

But at night, when all the world's asleep

The questions run so deep

For such a simple man

Won't you please (oh, won't you tell me)

Please tell me what we've learned?

(Can you hear me?) I know it sounds absurd

(Oh, won't you tell me) please tell me who I am

Who I am, who I am, who I am

Ooh

Hey

'Cause I was feeling so logical

Yeah

D-D-D-D-D-D-D-Digital

Yeah, one, two, three, five

Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah

Ooh, it's getting unbelievable

Yeah

Getting, getting, yeah, yeah

Uh, uh, uh, uh

ArTEEtude is West Cork´s podcast for Art, [digital] Culture and true stories, created and produced by Detlef Schlich. Schlich operates with his podcast cross-sectorally. For him, a visual artist has to think transversely instead of just enjoying the luxury of being the antagonist. To drive the narrative and be a protagonist, he will dive and discover with us into the unknown and exciting deep ocean of the creative mind.
Detlef Schlich is Podcaster, Visual Artist, Film Maker, Ritual Designer and Media Archaeologist, living and loving in West Cork and best known for his Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culture and the video installation Transodin´s Tragedy. He mainly works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. To research our human condition and create artwork from this reflection, he often uses the digital shaman's methodology as alter ego. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in carving out the aesthetic, cultural, and political singularities of media in culture.
