MICHAEL BEHM

The Remaining Go

Michael Behm is a multi-talented singer/songwriter with a rapidly expanding international reputation as an artist to watch. He is also a concerned citizen of Planet Earth. These two roles intersect in compelling fashion on his new track, “The Remaining Go.”

The song was written for Earth Day, and Behm is donating all the proceeds from sales of the track to the Western Canada Wilderness Committee (WCWC) for their work in educating people on the steps we can take to make living on earth sustainable. The song has also been donated to the WCWC for use in their publicity campaigns. "I created the song as a reminder for us to be a little easier on the planet,” explains Behm. “I recognised the need for all of us to honour the agreement we have with nature and to walk with a little softer footprint.”

The catalyst for The Remaining Go was Behm’s witnessing of environmental destruction in his own British Columbia backyard. He lives close to Qualicum and Cathedral Grove, a beautiful old growth forest now under serious threat from logging. Heli-logging close to protected areas of forest creates serious damage to the entire forest, says Behm. “When you cut down the primary trees around an old growth forest, the wind affects the remaining trees and they fall as well, hence the title ‘The Remaining Go.’”

The song’s lyrics bring the situation to vivid life: “1,000 summers to make just one…when the cold winds blow, the remaining go.” The message is delivered in the form of a strongly melodic and accessible pop-rock song. “I wanted something singable so the audience could sing along if they wanted to. I was looking for something with a pop sensibility and a pleading kind of performance to it,” says Behm.

This mandate is fulfilled in strikingly effective fashion on “The Remaining Go.” The song features the high-end production that has become a Michael Behm trademark, while his vocal and instrumental work is of an equally high calibre. This creative talent was vividly showcased on his 2008 album Saving America, which earned notable airplay and media attention in the U.S., while his recent single “If I Could Learn To Fly” topped online charts in Australia (mp3.au.com) and Canada (Reverb Nation). His carefully-crafted compositions are also in increasing demand for film and television, and Behm recently completed a track for a new Disney prodution.

An impressive new addition to Behm’s body of work, ”The Remaining Go” reflects a wider purpose. ”I’m not preachy, but there’s a point when mainstream people like myself feel motivated to do something about what is going on.”
