Story behind the song
“The Circle of Lifeâ€-project was born after the Christmas Cover Competition 2007. I met a lot of nice people on the chatboard there and decided to try to gather some of these fellows for a collab – and what could be more suitable than making a tune for the next holiday: Easter. That tune was released last year and then the idea was born. I decided to make a series of tunes which lyricwise should describe the event of the specific holiday – and musicwise should support it the best way I could think of. Luckily Morten Gjermundsen who contributed with solo on “Easter†invited me to visit Jude’s Coconut Blues Club, and in there I heard Kevin’s incredible voice on the player and thought: Oh my… If I in any way could get him to participate on my little project here, then I would be a VERY lucky man…. And yes – he joined on “Easter†– and now also on the first 2009 release “Palmsundayâ€. and there is even more to come on Easter Sunday I will release “Easter morning Sun†– alsÃ¥ featuring Kevin and many more.
Lyrics
Sunday morning in Jerusalem
People came from all around
It was the place to be to celebrate the spring
So they lived around in tents or a shelter in the town
Strong authorities, suppression everywhere
Those were the days for everyone
Lots of tensions between the leaders and the men
And everyone they hoped for a change in the wind
They saw that he was coming down the hill
And the citizens came in from the fields
They cutted branches from the trees, spread them on the ground
Cloaks on the road
Cause a king has come to town.
They saw that he was coming down the hill
And the citizens came in from the fields
They cutted branches from the trees, spread them on the ground
Cloaks on the road
Cause a king has come to town.
There was a donkey and its foal down there
And they were tied up to a tree
Untied them both and brought them up here
And if anybody asked they would get them back they’d see
So he rode towards the city gate
Unarmed he came in piece
He knew it all – he knew the risk that he would take
So determinately he rode – into the prophecy
They saw that he was coming down the hill
And the citizens came in from the fields
They cutted branches from the trees, spread them on the ground
Cloaks on the road
Cause a king has come to town.
They saw that he was coming down the hill
And the citizens came in from the fields
They cutted branches from the trees, spread them on the ground
Cloaks on the road
Cause a king has come to town.
