Through a light and straightforward approach, this piece places the listener alongside Andrew Macchio on the back of the garbage truck as he belts his way through the streets of New York City. The rotting smell of old garbage fades away into the air and you can't help but hum along with him. The lyrics "I gotta be me" echo throughout, reflecting Macchio's personal ethic that perhaps too few working people consider in their own lives. It's uplifting and well-produced-- listen to this piece right now if you haven't already!

This short piece features an inspirational garbage collector with an altogether winning personality. Cleanly produced and filled with rich sounds, it entertains even as it pokes holes in our stereotypes about glum proletarians at the bottom of the industrial food chain. This man seems to be happier and better adjusted than most of the smartly dressed executives who pass him on the streets every day. Plus, this guy can sing; he ought to get a contract out of this piece!
