Little Sun (Blues Pills)

Hi friends
Hope whoever reads this is having a good Friday... but if you aren't perhaps hearing some real good heavy blues rock will help. This is a song that needs to be heard.

I was first informed of Blues Pills by one of our members (maybe you'll read this and if so, THANK YOU!) in a thread I made about female soul singers. One listen and I was hooked. The band is surprising in many ways to me, as they sound like a southern rock band from the 70s but in fact hail from Sweden and formed in 2011.

The vocals are divine. The lyrics are a wrenching testament to grief. Let me know if you like it!

When the night is dark and lonely
And you've got no place to go
From your eyes tears are falling
The other side is calling
I'm the one who's left alone
And I still remember when you told me
You would never leave me on my own
Where are the ones I used to know
The mountain's falling all around me
The deep blue ocean overflows
The ground is shaking underneath me
In this spinning world without control
Oh though it's hard little sun
You have to know
When dark comes around
It's when you have to glow
Time is passing by
I just watch it go
But I'll be around
Even though I may not show
It's hard little sun
You have to know
When dark comes around
It's when you have to glow
Try to understand but I am in a haze
In this sorry world I only see your face
Time passing by I just watch it go
Don't you know I need your light
Don't you know I need you so
Darkness comes around,
it's when you have to glow
Oh remember what you said,
the promise that you gave
In the corners of my mind,
the darkness hides
Don't you know I need your light
Don't you know I need you so Try to understand,
but I am in a haze
You're not alone,
I will always stay

I love this group. I was introduced to them a year ago and was blown away.
