about

'Children of the Setting Sun' is an original song about hitting the road on an epic, summer-time adventure with your nearest and dearest, forgetting your troubles and living in the moment...

It was written in collaboration with friend Olly Goodman, and is one of my favourite songs to play live, especially with my loop pedal.

lyrics

V1

Shut the motherfucking door grab your keys let’s run
Switch off your mind and your television
We’re on a journey to the setting sun all singing
Do do do do do do do do

The wind is in our hair as we cruise along
My music is loud and it speaks for everyone
We are the children of the setting sun now everyone sing along
Do do do do do do do do

Pre-Chorus

Well come along the feeling’s close
We’re tripping coast to coast
I could swear I heard the holy ghost

Chorus

She said keep singing
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do
So we keep singing
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do

V2

Girl hold my hand underneath the sky
Set free the devil in your deep blue eyes
We all made the journey to the setting sun while singing
Do do do do do do do do

We came here strangers left here friends
We came here to find ourselves again again and again
Long live the children of the setting sun now everyone sing along
Do do do do do do do do

Pre-Chorus

Well come along the feeling’s close
We’re tripping coast to coast
I could swear I heard the holy ghost

Chorus

She said keep singing
So we keep singing
She said keep singing
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do
So we keep singing
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do


Outro

We come alive the feeling’s close
We’re tripping coast to coast
I could swear I heard the holy ghost
She said keep singing
