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
Sunday Train
Sunday Train
