Great cover of one of my favorite songs!!! There is a great version of this song done by Magpie Salute!!

I love the vibe so much - great use of reverb to create such a vulnerable sound - great guitar parts. Nicely done!

Always loved this song. Great unique take

love the sound of the room on this one. like an instrument itself. goes well with the tune.

really good guitar melody and tone..soft/serious...grabs your attention throughout...vocal matches that sense well..lyrics thoughtful

The search for a more peaceful existence away from the commotion, corrupt or not, of society.

*** RISE ***

Can you see the dawn arising
Can you see the light inside your mind
Can you feel it ?
Love will never die !

Be majestic like a phoenix 
You can be as golden as the sun
You can reach it
Nothing ever really dies !

RISE 
Shine like the sun
Make real your dreams
Realize it's all just make-believe 
Take time and take space
Shape with your hands
Your life's your own
Your master plan...

The universe it has no corners
There's no boundary 
You are not alone 
Are there edges to the oceans' waves ?

So the grass it may be greener
And the rivers may run clearer
So - How'd you know -
If you can't look to the other side ?

RISE
Shine like the sun
Wishes and dreams
And watching them all come true 
You'll see
That finding your way
Is all that it takes 
If you can wait for them to be...

RISE MAJESTIC 
RISE PHOENIX
YOU CAN BELIEVE IT !

RISE 
Shine like the sun
Make real your dreams
Realize it's all just make-believe 
Take time and take space
Shape with your hands
Your life's your own
Your master plan...

Rise

Lyrics:
Won’t you leave the light on
Never could spy on
Drawn on a lake like with 
A charcoal crayon

Old men rely on 
Days of bygone
Memories traced
to the war in Saigon

Never gonna raise him
Better you forgave him
Shaving with a razor 
From the Barber’s favor

Maybe you could save him
If you forgave him
Betting on red but it’s looking pretty grim

Callin on Eliza
You know she relies on
Petty little gossip
From the corner store

A shoulder to cry on
Simping for the line on
Better get it straight if you’re wanting more. 
Wanting More 

Knowing Eliza
does despise him
Holding her hand when the sun has set

He listens real good
But she thinks he’s a fool
Believing that this is all he’ll get

She’s staying in the friend zone
She’s lovin Lorenzo
Never gonna have that special glow
She’s staying in the friend zone
She’s lovin Lorenzo
Never gonna have that special glow


Won’t you leave the light on
Never could spy on
Drawn on a lake like with 
A charcoal crayon

Old men rely on 
Days of bygone
Memories traced
to the war in Saigon

Never gonna raise him
Better you forgave him
Shaving with a razor 
From the Barber’s favor

Maybe you could save him
If you forgave him
Betting on red but it’s looking pretty grim

Callin on Eliza
You know she relies on
Petty little gossip
From the corner store

A shoulder to cry on
Simping for the line on
Better get it straight if you’re wanting more. 
Wanting More 
 
Callin on Eliza
You know she relies on
Petty little gossip
From the corner store

A shoulder to cry on
Simping for the line on
Better get it straight if you’re wanting more. 
 

Knowing Eliza
does despise him
Holding her hand when the sun has set

He listens real good
But she thinks he’s a fool
Believing that this is all he’ll get

She’s staying in the friend zone
She’s lovin Lorenzo
She’s staying in the friend zone
She’s lovin Lorenzo

"Killing Moon" JTSunrise cover of Echo and the Bunnymen 

Check out the Video on Instagram 

Released in 1984 as the lead single from their album "Ocean Rain," the song has since become one of the band's most beloved and iconic tracks. With its ethereal atmosphere and poetic lyrics, "Killing Moon" captures Echo and the Bunnymen's sound and left an indelible mark on the music landscape

Formed in Liverpool, England, in 1978, Echo and the Bunnymen quickly rose to prominence in the post-punk era with their unique blend of dark, introspective lyrics and melodic rock. The band was founded by Ian McCulloch (vocals), Will Sergeant (guitar), and Les Pattinson (bass), and were later joined by Pete de Freitas (drums). Their music drew inspiration from a variety of sources, including The Velvet Underground, David Bowie, and The Doors. Their sound is simultaneously moody and anthemic

Legend has it that their drummer, Pete de Freitas, named their drum machine "Echo" because he believed it would confuse their rivals. The idea was that whenever other bands would talk about Echo and the Bunnymen, they wouldn't know whether it referred to the band as a whole or just their drum machine. The song should be played to a drum machine for 1980s authenticity, 124 bpm

"Killing Moon" gained renewed attention in popular culture when it was prominently featured in the 2001 cult film "Donnie Darko." The song plays during a crucial sequence in the movie, adding a sense of mystery and intensity to the scene. Its inclusion in the film introduced a new generation to Echo and the Bunnymen and solidified "Killing Moon" as a timeless classic

Teacher:
What have we here, laddie? Mysterious scribblings? A secret code? No! Poems, no less! Poems, everybody!

Teacher:
The laddie reckons himself a poet!

Teacher:
"Money get back
 I'm all right, Jack 
Keep your hands off my stack 
New car 
Caviar 
Four star daydream
Think I'll buy me a football team." 
Absolute rubbish, laddie !

Teacher:
Get on with your work...

[LYRICS]
She comes like the rain					
She comes like a Sunday morning					
She comes like the breeze					
Fresh(es) out a song in my mind					
					
I know it's a dream					
A dream that will soon be awaken					
Like a haunting memory					
I see her face in everything I do					
 					
CHORUS 1					
Nevertheless, with no regrets					
Falling for her deep inside					
Feelings I try to hide, keep on overflowing					
Ha… However, 					
Though something holds us back					
It's hard for me to forget	the tender moments that we have had					

Pastel shades of light					
Turn the page and it's all empty					
Torn between pleasure & pain					
Inside the passions we refrained					
 					
CHORUS 2					
Lingering aimlessly, fate is playing tricks on me					
If that's the way God plans to be					
No one knows where it's leading					
However,  can't get you out of my mind					
Don't you know that every time I close my eyes					
You're back again……..					
					
Instrumental & repeat Chorus 1

My Chaos       (Original)

Halfway to Heaven
(John Stone)

I’ll never get to heaven
After all the things I’ve done
When offered up temptation
Temptation always won

But when I’m with you baby
I really couldn’t care
For all the stars in heaven
As you take me half way there

Half way to heaven
If on judgement day
They won’t let me into heaven then
This is what I’ll say
Half way to heaven
If on judgement day
They won’t let me into heaven
Then I'll know I’ve been half way

I saw you on the dance floor
Invited you to dance
Our bodies met in time and space
And there we took our chance
Though I’d like go to heaven  I really couldn’t claim 
If I had my time all over that
Things wouldn’t  be the same

Half way to heaven
If on judgement day
They won’t let me into heaven then
This is what I’ll say Hey Hey
Half way to heaven
If on judgement day
They won’t let me into heaven
Then I'll know I’ve been half way

We write a story
The story of our lives
We hold the pen so tightly
It comes as a surprise
When words we’ve written
Are not the words we say
The part we would have wished for
Cannot be the part we play

But when I’m with you baby
I really couldn’t care
For all the stars in heaven
As you take me half way there

Half way to heaven
If on judgement day
They won’t let me into heaven
Then this is what I’ll say
Half way to heaven
If on judgement day
They won’t let me into heaven
Then I'll know I’ve been half way

I don’t buy anything, process anything, or sell anything- i don’t process anything sold or bought or processed, or sell anything to be bought or processed or sold

JTSunrise, like a cryptic melody echoing through the mist, A silhouette against the dawn, veiled in an enigma’s twist. Their chords weave secrets, harmonies untold, In the dim-lit corners of the soul, they unfold

Is it the owl reflection of their eyes, the echo of forgotten lullabies? JT strums the strings of mystery, A troubadour in the shadows, lost in history

Their lyrics dance on the edge of dreams, Whispers of forgotten realms and moonlit streams. Enigmatic, they wander through star-kissed nights, A minstrel of the cosmos, chasing celestial light

Perhaps they’re a riddle wrapped in stardust, A cosmic wanderer, both mortal and just. JTSunrise, elusive as the morning mist, Their music lingers, leaving hearts gently kissed

**In the gentle strumming of strings and the raw authenticity of JTSunrise’s compositions, you’ll find echoes of love, nostalgia, and the human experience**

Killing Moon
