EZ Street: The Soundtrack

Making sweet music from a great series

Comics pro Mark Wheatley is already known for his work on series like Breathtaker, Frankenstein Mobster and his current ongoing series EZ Street here on ComicMix, but many readers might not be as familiar with Wheatley's other creative outlet: music.

The talented writer/artist recently directed me to a batch of songs he's written (and in most cases, performed all by his lonesome), including the theme song to his Insight Studios series Radical Dreamer and both a theme song and songlist for several episodes of EZ Street.

According to Wheatley, the theme song for EZ Street recently climbed as high as #25 in the Top 100 (of more than 13,000) Progressive Rock songs on SoundClick, the musician site hosting the tracks.

You can listen to EZ Street by pressing the "Play" button on the widget below:

You can also view the rest of Wheatley's songs on SoundClick by clicking here, and if you're interested in pairing the music with a few episodes of the series that inspired them, visit our EZ Street archive found here.

For those interested in the lyrics to the EZ Street theme song, Wheatley has provided them after the jump:

 

EZ STREET by Mark Wheatley
February 22, 2008

Let me tell you how to find EZ STREET.
Where the people live, who you've got to meet.

No map, no guide book, can show you where.
No road or highway can take you there.

You'll never find it if you don't have faith.
And just might miss it if your faith is misplaced.

Once you know the way to EZ STREET,
You'll never want to leave EZ STREET

Because all your dreams come true,
It's true.
All your dreams can come true,
For you.
All your dreams come true,
On EZ STREET.

Let me tell you about my good life there,
Where my dog learned to bark and I grew back my hair.

That's where you can buy a beautiful home.
A place where you can heal a soul or your bones.

Find a kitchen to cook all your favorite meals.
An agent to arrange your million dollar deals.

Yes, a woman, a car and a private jet.
An inside track to the winning bet.

Here's the abundant love of your family.
And success will come to you, finally!

Nothing can go wrong on EZ STREET.
Every part of your life there will be complete

Because all your dreams come true,
It's true.
All your dreams can come true.
For you.
All your dreams come true,
On EZ STREET.

There will be lots of time to enjoy your riches,
While the ladies smother you with hugs and kisses.

If you get lost and wander away,
You'll at least have your memories of better days.

Keep on searching for that neighborhood.
It's around the next turn if you're really that good.

You'll tell your best stories on EZ STREET.
Fame and glory will find you on EZ STREET.
It will all come easy on EZ STREET.
Don't you wish you were there now?
You gotta wish you were there now!
You know you gotta be there now!
On EZ STREET!

Because all your dreams come true,
It's true.
All your dreams will come true,
For you.
All your dreams come true,
On EZ STREET
On EZ STREET
On EZ STREET
