Sunday Train was released on Cracker's fifth album, Garage d'Or, in the spring of 2000. It is a two disc album, with the first disc representing a "greatest hits" collection, and the second disc compiling rarities and previously unreleased material.

The first disc is great of course, containing most of Cracker's best known songs and hits, but it's the second disc that is of most interest to longtime Cracker fans, since it's things we hadn't heard before. "Sunday Train" is my favorite track included with the new stuff, and since it was originally recorded during the sessions for 1993's Kerosene Hat album....that not surprising to me, since that is my favorite album by the band.

Not much to say about the vid.....been thinking about doing something for this track and spent a few hours last night making something happen for it. It's a great track, and I love the hypnotic, rhythmic train feel and of course a few bits of Lowery's typically puzzling lyrics.

Special thanks to everyone who's art made this new art possible.....THANK YOU!!!!

[Lyrics]

You can place your faith in God my friend

But no one knows His plan

You can place your faith in your brother

But he may fail you

So, I am waiting for that Sunday train

Place my faith in southern line

She may not be on time

But she will come

She once was a proud one

Stretched from sea to shinning sea

She may not take you everywhere

You want to go where you need to be she'll agree

So, rest you'll weary legs

They carried you all this way

And climb aboard that Sunday train

When she comes

When God banished Lilith from the garden

He gave us Eve, gave us steam

So, trains climb up every mountain

But never have they or set me free

So, if your heart is weary

And soul your soul is like mine

Climb aboard that Sunday train

When she comes

Sunday Train

Thanks John! Wow...believe it or not...this thought actually crossed my mind when I first started the video and I originally had the clip from around 2:00 minutes before any close ups and they were both in the right direction....unfortunately as I continued editing the vid I just dropped the close up clip in and never gave it another thought. But especially now that you mention it....it would have been much cooler. Thanks so much....I'll pay closer attention to this trick in the future!

Jon Good song.great images. well done. Like your copyright blurb at the end. Only thing that I can suggest is that when you cut between distance shot of trains to the extreme close-up, flip the video so that they move in the some direction. Old technique from D.W. Griffith. Makes for stronger transitions. I've been watching a great production series on Netflix: The Story of Film--An Odyssey.

You, my brother, are absolutely terrific and I will fight any man that says it isn't so.
