Mix an Egyptian sound with a Reggae beat, broken up by Electric solo riffs and cryptic lyrics sang to addictive melodies with a unique, powerful rocky voice - I give you, "Morn' To Night!"
Although this track begins with a rather lyrical cliche, {I feel like writing a song} it was quite the opposite of moods which encouraged the song to be written that night. It's about the perils of dreams. Someone who's reality continues when they sleep, like and ancient curse - but here, there is no self-control over what happens. They do whatever they can do avoid going in to a world where every night could be your last. Quite funny how the song was constructed. My Nephew Luke was staying over and we were sat in the dark listening to a strange rhythmic beeping noise coming from my radiator - it provided the foundation for the beat and melody to this song! I was in the studio the very next day. My radiator never made that sound again?? Shame - I was hoping to kneel before it and ask it's wisdom for the next 7 songs!
Morn' To Nite
I feel like writing a song
So I thought I’d start with this
These days are feeling too long
And nothing’s left here on my list
I’m whizzing through the afternoon
Getting through the night
Can’t close my eyes without a fight
Whizzing through the afternoon
Getting through the night
Say’n farewell to morning light
Tell me why I waste my time
Suffering these dreams of mine
The end is always nigh
With the devil’s lullaby
I’m sleeping though the afternoon
Leaving out the night
Then I don’t have to taste the bitter bite
Sleeping through the afternoon
Leaving out the night
I wait to greet the morning light
I feel like writing a song I knew it would end up like this
I’m just too far and beyond - the ropes are burning around my wrist
I’m whizzing through the afternoon
Getting through the night
Can’t close my eyes without a fight
Whizzing through the afternoon
Getting through the night
Say’n farewell to morning light
I feel like writing a song
So I thought I’d start with this
These days are feeling too long
And nothing’s left here on my list
I’m whizzing through the afternoon getting through the night
Can’t close my eyes without a fight
Sleeping through the afternoon leaving out the night
I wait to greet the morning light
No one can save me – no one – mmnn no one
