    some people say it was liam finn
    i think it might've been a recording of ed singing that was slowed down in spots at least thats kindof what it sounded like to me before chicago 2
    but then a gain, parts of it sounded like someone else was singing

    Ed mentioned this in Toronto. I believe he spelled the singer's name Mberu or Mburu. The recording was given as a gift to Ed's brother. I don't think it's in distribution, but Ed did make a joke about Googling it.

    Ed explained during the 1st Massey Hall show that an African singer, Mburu, a gentleman 65 years young who's blind and has only 3 teeth left presented Jason Mueller (Ed's brother) and Fernando Apodaca (the director responsible for the "Life Wasted" video) with said recording when they returned to Africa to visit him after originally travelling there to film footage of him several years back,...
