Matt Corby - First Things First Lyrics






First things first
I find a place
A nice big piece of grass
Sit right down and think about
The other side of town
Oh ain't you glad you been living 'round here
Ain't you glad that you're free
Oh is all good to know you got a friend
That will help you out til the very end of time
Your mind's alive with crawly things that go
Runnin' round your mind
They tell you when right or wrong
And they keep you from goin' insane
Oh baby ain't you glad you been livin' round here
Ain't you glad that your free yeah
Oh it's all good to know you got a friend that will
Help you out til the very end of time
Oh do you see what I mean
There's always someone there to disagree
Oh I was sittin' on that nice green grass
Thoughts goin' through my mind
I'm thinkin' about cutting it fine
And sing a little song and praying for it all
Ain't you glad you been livin' round here
Ain't you glad that your free
It's so good that you got a friend that will
Help you out til the very end

  11. S.... S....

    This song describes exactly how I feel right now...  Leaving the city to go traveling around the world... :)

  12. C.... L....

    this song reminds me of vienna by billy joel at the start

  13. D.... K....

    I will be screaming this song to be requested tonight at your show. Just a warning.

  14. S.... ....

    Good ol' soul!

    What's Matt been up to? Haven't seen much of any updates from him.

    b.... ....

    +bobos245 Just received his newsletter today, saying he's been studying instruments, writing and recording and that we'll be hearing from him very soon! Super stoked! :)

    b.... ....

    +bobos245 he's releasing his first full album on March 11 I believe... Or mid March sometime? But I've got March 11 in my head for some reason. From live recordings from his current tour its a bit of a different sound but still amazing in every way.

  19. J.... V....

    Woooooow Very very very talented, beautiful and sexy.

  20. M.... T....

    amazing voice

  21. G.... f....

    MATT CORBY!

    When Fire and Thunder is coming out?

  23. S.... S....

    How had I never heard this until today?..... So good, Matt.

  24. M.... S....

    The new guitar sounds are unbelievably sexy. This is a mix of blues and new-age Paolo Nutini. Much different, but I'm loving it 

    M.... S....

    Yea makes me think of paolo nutini!

  25. l.... ....

    SO GREAT

  26. C.... R....

    Great sound !!!

  27. C.... L....

    Please come to the US

  28. s.... ....

    Come to Texas!!! 🙈

    s.... ....

    I second!! He came to Austin in 2011 though and I wasn't there *heart breaks*

  29. M.... A....

    Sounds a lot like Amos Lee. Which is no bad thing.

  30. A.... C....

    Great voice and amazing versatility! Love your songs and your instrumental arrangements. I hope you come to Portugal again. I didn´t have the chance to go the first time you played in Portugal but I would not missed it now for sure! 

  31. M.... L....

    Mneyék 

  32. A.... N....

    Keep up the great work matt corby. Awesome!!

  33. A.... F....

    Matt please come to Portugal once you have the chance =) we are a great audience to musicians and we need to hear your beautiful voice live! 

  34. V.... S....

    Hey matt, I just wanted to let you know that I'm a huge fan of you and I wish you could make a concert in Germany, hamburg cause I can't fly to the USA or Australia just to see you... But I'm reeeeeallly obsessed with your voice and your kind of music. You're soo talented and I love you! Keep up the incredible work!

    V.... S....

    +Viola Schäfer <3 omg this song is so incredible *_*

    V.... S....

    +Viola Schäfer  He's coming to Belgium this summer if you haven't had the chance to see him yet, ( to Pukkelpop, a festival)

    V.... S....

    @Louise Goffin I'm gonna see him in Germany at a festival this year. Super excited!!!

    V.... S....

    @Viola Schäfer yes he is so amazing! I can't wait to see him cuz he's bae haha

  35. S.... B....

    love the new sound

  36. l.... ....

    matt corby more like matt corbae

  37. L.... S....

    This is amazing and I have to say I prefer this style for him. The acoustic stuff is incredible, don't get me wrong, but this is a genre that can really showcase his voice and skills as a musician. I imagine he won't ever read this comment but if he does, YOUR KILLING IT MATT!!!!!.. oh and trick of the light is funky as hell.

  38. R.... N....

    Okay Ray Charles

  39. S.... G....

    2:11 Holy hell man...

    S.... G....

    goodbye world. lol dafug

  40. E.... N....

    perfect.

  41. D.... C....

    Yeah!! Get it Matt!

  42. H.... ....

    Matt is awesome! he can sing everything in a good way

  43. E.... F....

    Flawless.

  44. J.... M....

    Sounds like Amos Lee!! My favorite!!!

  45. D.... ....

    I actually didn't feel that natural unique sound that Matt has always expressed through song writing. Sounds like an emulation of the old sound, which is not a bad this, but that uniqueness has dissipated. I really hate to say it because I'm such a fan from Chicago, this is very upsetting.

    D.... ....

    Bad Thing*

    D.... ....

    As I just recognized... is this an old song???? Wow do I feel stupid. Still didn't like it. :P

    D.... ....

    @Dsnow1985
    yeah its a cover so i wouldnt worry to much haha

    D.... ....

    its sounds fucking amazing but, its not the typical matt corby style but he definetly pulled this song off.

  46. P.... D....

    Love it#

  47. A.... C....

    So good!! Keep up the amazing songs (:

  48. I.... G....

    This is beautiful. I can't get over how insane your vocals are! Like, you don't fit into just one genre because of how unique your voice is.
    LOVE
    x

  49. S.... O....

    Matt's vocal control is phenomenal, and his wide range of musical genre is AMAZING, what an awesome artist.  

  50. J.... H....

    This just shows how insanely wide Matts range of genre is. Never doubt this bloke!

    J.... H....

    This is a cover

    J.... H....

    @TheRevProdigy777 Never said it was an original. Just because it's a cover doesnt mean it shows any less versatility. Cover or not it is still insane how well he can pull this type of sound off.

    J.... H....

    Exactly

  51. t.... ....

    cool intro, incredible voice, talented musician... impressive as always :) 

  52. N.... T....

    Wow this is so good

  53. T.... T....

    Fuck yeah

  54. B.... ....

    LOVE this ! so cool to see how far you have come, I remember watching you on idol hahah x

  55. P.... D....

    Your voice men... Amazing!
    You can do what you want with! Haha

  56. A.... L....

    first things first, this song is magical.

  57. S.... W....

    Great cover man! Lovin' every second of it!

  58. T.... ....

    This is so bizarrely cool!! It sounds kinda mechanic at the beginning but slightly in the style of Ray Charles..intriguing!!  

  59. C.... O....

    I think I prefer this cover to the original

  60. J.... N....

    so fucking amazing

  61. A.... J....

    OH YES!!!!

  62. J.... B....

    Amazing song dude keep it up :)

  63. a.... ....

    Different... In a good way :)

  64. T.... ....

    Matt.. Friggen WOW dude..

  65. I.... ....

    So good!

  66. A.... F....

    This is awesome. Jimi Hendrix in there

  67. C.... K....

    Woah you sound so different! Not that this was bad in any way but I much prefer your softer beautiful acoustic tracks!

    C.... K....

    i feel the same way with ed sheeran too

    C.... K....

    @NathFilms I dont think its a cover dude. Who did the original?

    C.... K....

    @PatFreakinRick Tamam Shud is the original, it was from the 70's, it featured on Morning Of The Earth soundtrack, which this film is based on, Matt just recorded his version of it

    C.... K....

    @NathFilms Thats interesting. Could you possibly show me a link?

    C.... K....

    @PatFreakinRick itunes has it, you can listen to a minute and a half of it for free if you dont want to buy it, i think Spotify and Last Fm have it, Matts versions alot better

  68. G.... D....

    ahh so good

  69. G.... S....

    Your music gets me through a lot !! Thankyou x
