Sunday Shining

Finley Quaye

Make it

Sun is shining, the weather is sweet, yeah
Whoa, it makes you wanna move those dancing feet
For the rescue, uh, here I am
I want you to know y'all
Here I stand

As the morning gathers a rainbow
I want you to know y'all
That I'm a rainbow with you

'Cause I'm a hero like Robert De Niro
I know an Ital Rasta man
I gotta to keep eye height
Protection until time
Well sun is shining, yeah, whoa

War is explosive
You got to demonstrate
Demonstrate, you got to demonstrate
Don't fight
'Cause the sun is shining
For you
There's nothing else to do

Sun is shining
The weather is sweet yeah (whoa)
It makes you wanna move those dancing feet
To the rescue, uh
Here I am
I want you to know y'all
Here I stand

As the morning gathers a rainbow
I want you to know now
That I'm a rainbow with you

Whoa whoa whoa yeah
Test the eye, test the eye
Fear no evil
Channel like a lion
Channel like a lion

Some say, yeah
Money in my
One on one
Money in my pocket
But I just can't get your love

Some say, yeah
And the sun is shining
Don't fight
And you got soul
And you're chopping it up aero
For you
There's nothing else to do

Sun is shining
The weather is sweet yeah (whoa)
It makes you wanna move those dancing feet
To the rescue, uh
Here I am
I want you to know now
Here I stand

As the morning gathers a rainbow
I want you to know now
That I'm a rainbow with you
As the morning gathers a rainbow
I'm rougher than rough
'Cause I'm a rainbow with you

Tougher than tough
Channel like a lion, yes
This is some fashion, yeah
Spiritual fashion, yeah
Whoa whoa whoa yeah
Whoa whoa whoa yeah, yeah

    what a great cover of "sun is shining"... which is already one of my favorite bob marley songs. when finley quaye adds in that trippy guitar lick and his crazy voice, it makes me love these lyrics even more.

Shudder to Think
This song is timeless, and nearly 20 years after its creation, still possesses the mystique it did the first time i heard it ~1994. To me, at first blush, all those years ago, it had some kind of homo-erotic allure. The line "so that the others may do" tells of something which must be done for others to follow suit. It felt like like some kind of roxy-glam-pop invitation to sexual liberation. Upon further introspection I think the song may not have an intrinsic meaning, but simply represents a sort of "holding open the door" for people who otherwise might be affronted by this song/band's unusual style. I know, as a sort of armchair rock-historian, that there have been few bands so daring and so true to the sound that wanted to emerge from within, whether the creator wanted it or not. This band handled it with elegance and grace seldom, if ever, seen.

I believe this is another amazingly on point and nuanced commentary on the insanity that follows emotionally abusive relationships. The abuser has no anxieties, no emotional pain, or salience/memory for that matter, so the survivor appears to be the crazy one, obsessed with the abuse and that buzzword that seems to ignite arguments about diagnosing people without a degree, etc. funny how you say the words domestic violence, abuse, abuse survivor and boom the subject changes. Anyways, I especially relate to her midnights becoming afternoons, complex PTSD often leads to this phenomenon, whether due to purposeful sleep deprivation by the abuser, or just hyper vigilance associated with the PTSD, along with the fear of facing people, especially your loved ones, who Never actually understand, even if they try, because all they see is you, on fire, screaming about the arsonist that no one ever sees, and who has been spreading lies about your alleged mental instability, deceptive personality, etc. the whole time. While the last thing survivors need is more blame, our society supports a narrative that blames the objectively innocent party because the blatantly guilty party has spent their entire lives fabricating a persona and we’re just being human, and human psychology is quite counterintuitive especially in the context of trauma. Look at Amber Heard. Vilified and not believed, regardless of what any abuse survivor could recognize as a fellow survivor instantly. But Johnny depp is a malignant narcissist, a man, and wealthy as all get out. It’s sick.
