lyrics
Things have gotten strange
Out here on the range
We've just been fumblin' around
Stuck here on the ground
But like a big eight wheeler rollin' down the track
Voices say it's comin' back tonight
Everywhere you go
Maine to Pocomo
You see them tumblin' down
Ministers and clowns
But like a big eight wheeler rollin' down the track
Voices say it's comin' back tonight
Yeah tonight there will be dancin'
And tonight there will be song
Some heavenly romancin' cause
The spirit that had left is comin' home
Yeah tonight yeah tonight
Hey tonight there will be dancin'
And tonight there will be song
Some heavenly romancin' cause
The spirit that had left is comin' home
Yeah tonight oh tonight
Well everyone I know
Even Gram and Uncle Joe
Been singin' the strangest tunes
Yeah they been howlin' at the moon
Cause like a big eight wheeler rollin' down the track
Voices say it's comin' back tonight.
Yeah like a big eight wheeler rollin' down the track
Voices say it's comin' back
And i think it's comin' home tonight
Yeah i think it's comin' home tonight
I think it's comin' home tonight
Sing
la la la....
Out here on the range
We've just been fumblin' around
Stuck here on the ground
But like a big eight wheeler rollin' down the track
Voices say it's comin' back tonight
Everywhere you go
Maine to Pocomo
You see them tumblin' down
Ministers and clowns
But like a big eight wheeler rollin' down the track
Voices say it's comin' back tonight
Yeah tonight there will be dancin'
And tonight there will be song
Some heavenly romancin' cause
The spirit that had left is comin' home
Yeah tonight yeah tonight
Hey tonight there will be dancin'
And tonight there will be song
Some heavenly romancin' cause
The spirit that had left is comin' home
Yeah tonight oh tonight
Well everyone I know
Even Gram and Uncle Joe
Been singin' the strangest tunes
Yeah they been howlin' at the moon
Cause like a big eight wheeler rollin' down the track
Voices say it's comin' back tonight.
Yeah like a big eight wheeler rollin' down the track
Voices say it's comin' back
And i think it's comin' home tonight
Yeah i think it's comin' home tonight
I think it's comin' home tonight
Sing
la la la....

i like this version better than the original. The middle part has that aggression that makes the excellent balance with the beginning and ending of the song.

This might be my favourite of Heilung. They've improved a bit on their later releases but their debut is still much meaner, and darker. Maria's amazing voice obviously steals the show but I also quite like Kai's too, especially on the live performance. In fact I'd say get LIFA over this IMO. The spoken word bits are really cool to hear proto-germanic in use but for relistening purposes they are going to be a bit obtrusive. Nevertheless the proper music here is on continual repeat for me.

Disheveled Cuss
by Disheveled CussBig, brawny, hooky songs with 20-ton riffs and choruses as sweet as candy make this one of the month’s strongest rock albums.
