Samuel’s Musicians Of The Week
August 14th, 2005 at 07:33pm
This week’s award goes to Credence Clearwater Revival.
I can remember quite clearly a few nights when I was listening to Radio 2CA when they went off air and the backup tape kicked in with “Bad Moon Rising”, but it often got cut off after a few seconds and started from the beginning all over again (blasted computer noise), this happened on quite a few nights, and hearing the first few bars, followed by silence, followed by the first few bars, more silence, half the song, silence, the first few bars and more silence and then the whole song and half the next song, followed by silence and then this song again did get quite irritating.
Suprisingly though, it has become one of my favourite songs, and so I have chosen it to be the featured song for this week’s Musicians Of The Week, Credence Clearwater Revival.
I see the bad moon arising.
I see trouble on the way.
I see earthquakes and lightning.
I see bad times today.
Don’t go around tonight,
Well, it’s bound to take your life,
There’s a bad moon on the rise.
I hear hurricanes ablowing.
I know the end is coming soon.
I fear rivers over flowing.
I hear the voice of rage and ruin.
Don’t go around tonight,
Well, it’s bound to take your life,
There’s a bad moon on the rise.
I hear hurricanes ablowing.
I know the end is coming soon.
I fear rivers over flowing.
I hear the voice of rage and ruin.
All right!
Hope you got your things together.
Hope you are quite prepared to die.
Looks like we’re in for nasty weather.
One eye is taken for an eye.
Don’t go around tonight,
Well, it’s bound to take your life,
There’s a bad moon on the rise.
I hear hurricanes ablowing.
I know the end is coming soon.
I fear rivers over flowing.
I hear the voice of rage and ruin.
Don’t go around tonight,
Well, it’s bound to take your life,
There’s a bad moon on the rise.
I hear hurricanes ablowing.
I know the end is coming soon.
I fear rivers over flowing.
I hear the voice of rage and ruin.
