Greg Greenway, originally from Richmond VA, moved to Boston for it’s rich music scene. Drawing on blues and jazz in his music, Greg’s lyrics are reminiscent of Guthrie and others that came before. This particular song was written after Greg’s visit to MLK’s assassination site. He states he wanted to write a tribute but believed the best had already been written (U2’s ‘In the Name of Love’). He decided then to write a sort of ‘introduction to’. First verse tells of Ghandi, then Greg moves into MLK, and finally into his own rendition of the U2 classic.
