Now That's The Ticket! Michael Behm has a Ticket To Heaven
Artist: Michael Behm
Album: Saving America
Track: Ticket To Heaven
From Vancouver, here's a Canadian artist that has a great powerpop sound and concern for America.
From a review at Melodic:
This is really smart powerpop for the music lovers that demand something more than simple bubblegum pop choruses, Behm's songs goes deeper than that.I recently discovered this guy on his 2005 album "Love songs for the emotionally impaired" and knew his new album would be something extra, I have listened to "Saving America" quite a lot lately and must say it's even better than the previous record.
The half instrumental "Underground Epic" is classic rock at it's best and the piano based "Lincoln" would make John Lennon proud. "If I had a life" bring thoughts to Bleu and songs like "Ticket to heaven" and "If I could learn to fly" could've been featured on Tal Bachman's excellent 1999 album.
The title track "Saving America" takes the listener back to the heydays of E.L.O, lovely! Well, he might not save America but he could easily save your day!

About Me
- michael behm
- Michael Behm The good times are rolling for Michael Behm four months after releasing “Saving America,” the first single off his forthcoming album of the same name. One major cause of celebration for the singer-songwriter and concerned citizen: Barak Obama has been elected to the White House and Americans have begun the job of saving their own bacon following eight years of the Bush presidency. On a personal level, Behm is absolutely pumped over the response to the meticulously crafted “Saving America” – a stirring, guitar-fuelled call for change, renewed optimism and fresh hope from a Canadian to his friends and neighbours south of the border. Positive reviews, on-line streaming via services like Australia’s mp3.com and Reverb Nation, and now a rush of adds from U.S. community radio stations are building momentum for a melodic original bristling with memorable hooks and a historic sample from one of John F. Kennedy landmark speeches. “Bless the man, he delivers,” writes Notlame Music’s Bruce Brodeen in comparing Behm to such U.S. rock-pop icons as Jason Falkner and the Rembrandts. “Really smart power pop,” adds a reviewer for Sweden’s Melodic.net
