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.

Satellite Lyrics

Danny Michel

With my knees up on the dashboard,
I watch the stars like grains of sand.
And underneath my sleeping bag,
the nightclub stamp still glows on my hand.
Through the rearview mirror, things become much clearer
than they've ever been.
And if this is a mistake, remind me to make
more of them.
Somedays my bad days, gang up on good days.
Somedays the world weighs too much for me to want to stay.
And I feel like a satellite
I feel like a satellite
I feel like a satellite
I feel like a satellite
And just when things were looking right and feeling good,
it all came crashing down.
Educated guess was my uneducated best
I confound. (that's not right)
Problems after problems piled high on problems
probably tried to touch the sun.
You're anything I can imagine,
right beneath my notice life had just begun.
Now my bad days end up on good days.
Now the grade's made in my own little ways.
And I feel like a satellite
I feel like a satellite
I feel like a satellite
I feel like a satellite
