Danny Michel is a singer-songwriter based just outside Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Born in 1970 and raised in Kitchener, Ontario , he began his professional career playing with the Rhinos before beginning a solo career. In the late 1990s, he moved to Ottawa, where he developed a loyal following with a weekly show at the Manx Pub on Elgin St. In his live shows, he often uses looped live samples of his guitar and other instruments to create a richly layered solo performance. While at the Manx he often entertained with cover versions of songs by some of his favourite artists, including David Bowie, Elvis Costello, Tom Waits, and the Rheostatics.

Newton's Apple Lyrics

Danny Michel

I'll carve initials in it,
I'll play until I win.
I'm going to love you till I break.
I'm going to fan your sweet flame,
I'm going to sing your sweet name.
And I'm going to love you till you shake.
'Cause I'm on the road to happiness
and the cool, cool streams of love.
I'm gonna get myself so dirty/filthy
rolling in the mud.
I've got my eye on bigger things
and the blue-er skies above.
So I'll shoot Newton's apple,
and I'll climb up on high.
I love you god as witness,
so I can't bear to watch this.
Your little heart left in the sun.
3 cheers for Hollywood.
'Cause there's gold in them thar hills,
And I'm gonna get my hands on some.
