Turn To The Movement Words & Music by Les Fradkin Updated Lyrics by Les & Loretta Fradkin (C) 2021 RRO Entertainment Ch: Turn to the movement turn to the light Turn to the truth and you’ll stop a fight Anything you want can turn out right I look around at people who play by all the rules Collapsing of our Nation A ship of angry fools They’ve been indoctrinated, trying to toe the line but see a time when all will know the truth in God’s Design Ch: Turn to the movement turn to the light Turn to the truth and you’ll stop a fight Anything you want can turn out right To stand up for your rights boy is more than just a game this is about control & power, their rules are just insane You cannot give a reason to fail to try to bend If you don’t start to listen, the human race could end Ch: Turn to the movement turn to the light Turn to the truth and you’ll stop a fight Anything you want can turn out right

Memories Of Love Words & Music by Les Fradkin New Lyrics by Les Fradkin and Loretta Fradkin (C) 1982, 2015, 2021 RRO Entertainment OBO Fradkin 2000 Music You divided the weak from the strong Made them believe that you could do no wrong After all this time, Memories of Love You told me always tell the truth, you said You gave me lies to fill my aching head After all this time, Memories of Love You’re starting now to cross your own state lines There’ll be renewed hope if it takes one day or The rest of all our time You told me lies to fill my aching soul Stole all my money so you could control After all this time, Memories of Love Solo We’re starting now to cross our own state lines There’ll be a Rebirth if it takes one day or The rest of all our time... You told me lies to fill our aching soul Stole all my money so you could control After all this time, Memories of Love After all this time, Memories of Love Ooh...Memories of Love

The Lie We Live Words & Music by Les Fradkin & Loretta Fradkin (C) 2021 RRO Entertainment OBO Fradkin 2000 Music Verse 1: They say we need our Our Daily Bread Some must need to pray instead We don’t need to live the lie we live We’re living in a Matrix world Where secret plans become unfurled We don’t need to take the things they give Verse 2: Illusions proffered every time We’re handed a deceptive line Observe the need to endlessly control An offered deal, a piece of pie While watching from the seeing eye It might be surrender of your soul Bridge: Where is the truth today? Can’t find it anyway Don’t be swayed by fake news the lie that they dance Wake up before it’s late Don’t let it be your fate You just could have a Brand New Chance Interlude / Solo Bridge-2: Where is the truth today? Can’t find it anyway Don’t be swayed by fake news the lie that they dance Wake up before it’s late Don’t let it be your fate You just could have a Brand New Chance Verse 3: We’re living in a Universe Where plans are shown to be diverse We don’t need to take we need to give You’ll wake up in a future time Where secrets can’t be yours or mine We don’t need to live the lie we live We don’t need to live the lie we live We don’t need to live the lie we live

Living In A Black & White World Words & Music by Les Fradkin & Loretta Fradkin & Diana Reid Haig (C) 2021 RRO Entertainment OBO Fradkin 2000 Music and Queen of Sheba Music Get right, or get left Get right, or get left Get right, or get left living in a black-and-white world. The left and the right argue bout systemic race, Perpetual emotion in each other’s face Keep a Social Distance from anyone’s embrace living in a black-and-white world. Riots in the streets watch the Cities be destroyed Businesses are closing , So many unemployed Finding out the truth is a project to avoid living in a black-and-white world Living in a black & White, living in a black & white Living in a black & white world Living in a black & White, living in a black & white Living in a black & white world Endless lockdown orders on the Government’s say Isolated families in a strange screenplay Too many politicians are getting in the way Living in a black and white world. Solo Living in a black & White, living in a black & white Living in a black & white world Living in a black & White, living in a black & white Living in a black & white world You cannot sell your soul cause it don’t belong to you Spending time with darkness so you just can’t see what’s true Selling out your country is the worst thing you can do Living in a Black and White World Keep up with your praying if you want some peace of mind We all should come together for a future more sublime Don’t give up on hope soon there’ll be a better time Living in a black and white world Get right, or get left Get right, or get left Get right, or get left living in a black-and-white world. Get right, or get left Get right, or get left Get right, or get left living in a black-and-white world.

about

"Mirror Image" follows on the heels of Fradkin’s 2020 album The Les Fradkin News, a set of eight tracks infused with incisive and provocative social commentary that captured the chaos, corruption, fear and disillusion with “the System” that defined 2020. The songs were culled from his solo debut, the epic Reality: The Rock Opera, which he and Loretta penned back in 2003. He won a video award for “System Crash,” which has also scored nearly 50,000 streams on Spotify.

Fradkin’s prescience regarding world events will surprise no one familiar with his colorful history that includes four achievements that impacted musical history. His early 70’s international hit “Song of 1,000 Voices” changed the sound of Europop. His use of classic instruments like the Mellotron changed the sound of recording sessions. He was an Original Cast Member of “Beatlemania,” which gave rise to the massive tribute band industry. Behind the scenes, Fradkin changed the sound of television music through the use of MIDI guitar programming. For his efforts, he was one of the original 25 inductees in the Television Music Producers Hall of Fame.
