Globe sceptic Alex Michael wanted to get the word out about the shape of the earth and, as a talented musician, believed the best way to do it was through the power of song.
So, last year, after a lifetime of playing in clubs, pubs and bars in bands and as a DJ, the 48-year-old Essex lad penned a few tracks, detailing his journey from being a globe believer and heliocentrist to a geocentric globe denier!
“I’ve always been pretty open-minded and was interested in all kinds of stuff that goes against the mainstream narrative. I started to look into the now popular theory that the globe is a huge lie,” he explains. “Soon I had the bug. I went through the disbelief when looking at all the information – wait… gravity’s a hoax? Water bubbles in space? Space station is a hoax? – then I realized… As a musician, I thought ‘I’ve got to make songs about this.’ ”
He understands that not everyone can get their heads around the idea of the earth being something other than what we are told.
“We all believed the earth was a spinning ball in space when we were kids,” says Alex, who started playing the piano at the age of 4 at home in Loughton. “It’s what we were taught at school. We never question what we are taught, why wouldn’t we believe? It seems the education system teaches you what to think and not how to think, but when you start taking a long hard look at what you’ve been told, and start to question it, you soon realize you’ve been lied to on a colossal scale!”
The songs cover all kinds of conspiracies related to the shape of the earth, including tracks about the fake moon landings, the faking of the International Space Station, ‘astro-nots’ and the way NASA rips off U.S. citizens to the tune of $56 million per day!
“Most people say they don’t care about the shape of the earth – that it doesn’t affect their lives in any way – and I once thought like that, but the irony is, once you start having a dig around, and start to understand the ‘great deception’ you soon discover why it’s so important and life changing.”
Once he’d written a few songs and set them to some toe-tapping country and western backing tracks (he plays all the instruments), he donned a cowboy hat, shorts and shades and became the “Flat Earth Man,” who, according to his bio, is “a larger than life animated country dude who clearly has a lot to say!”
“I created the character because at first I wanted to hide behind the character,” Alex confesses. Even though his Chelmsford-born wife, Shelley, 43, is fully on board about the globe lie and 100% supportive of his work, Alex admits: “I felt that if I put myself out there, my family and friends would think I’d lost the plot! These days, I’m a lot more comfortable talking about this, and people love the character and music and it really sows seeds in a fun and entertaining way.”
In his home studio, he produced some videos to go with the tracks, always starring himself (occasionally as different characters) and his dog Flat Eddie.
After uploading the first song – Flat Earth Man – to YouTube, he started to gain a bit of a following. Within weeks, his first video had thousands of views and his channel gained thousands of subscribers.
The first Johnny Cash-style song (A Boy Named Sue springs to mind), Flat Earth Man is all about meeting a man who claims that the earth is flat. He can’t believe what the man is telling him, so asks some questions. In the song, he sings:
So, what about the photographs that NASA takes from space;
He gave a knowing smile and said ‘man, those things are fake’.
‘But what about the videos I’ve seen with my two eyes?’
‘What about them?’ he replied. ‘Have you heard of CGI?’
It turns out Flat Earth Man was an artist who was asked by NASA to paint pictures of the earth from space as if they were photos. He goes on to explain how his paintings were published worldwide and that he was sworn to secrecy. True story? Who knows?
Other tracks – all of which tell a story and have extremely clever lyrics – include No Photographs of Earth, Puppet Show, Do You Still Believe We Went To The Moon? and Welcome To The Satellite Hoax.
In November 2018, Alex – now called ‘Flat Earth Man’ by his fans – played a concert in Denver to globe sceptics at a big international conference. “It was my first time in the U.S. and I loved it,” he says in his Essex accent. “I played to over 600 people. There were a lot of press there and documentary film makers. It was the best gig of my life.”
He discovered while he was in Denver just how famous he is. “I’m definitely well-known in this community of critical thinkers,” he declares. “I saw first-hand how much my songs resonated with people. Some parents there were telling me how they use my songs to educate their children. That’s pretty cool.”
His album – released in time for the conference – reached the No. 5 spot in the UK C & W chart. “It was great finding that out,” he said with a grin. “But it’s not good enough. This album needs to be Number 1 everywhere in order to wake the masses! We need more conscious music. People are so dumbed down!
“Making the album was something I felt compelled to do. Making music is what I do best and what I enjoy doing most. If people like it – and a lot seem to – then that’s great. And if it makes them want to look into the fact that we’ve all been indoctrinated about where we live, then even better.”
Alex’s YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/conspiracymusicguru currently has 25,000 subscribers and his videos have been seen by millions across (not around) the world.
