When The Summer Came
03:26
|
|||
|
Here we all are
Here we all were today
Still we're not quite there yet, yet
They said you'd go far
Then they turned you away today
Still we're not quite there yet
Not quite there yet
But we're almost there yeah
When the summer came so did the rain
But when the water came sun shone again
You see it all comes round from one day to the next
And when the summer came
So did the rain, so did the rain, so did the rain, yeah
Life has a way
Of taking away your worth
It's the sum of a zero gain
'Cause all this is war
Of normal and strange today
Still we're not quite there yet
Not quite where yet
But we're almost there yeah
When the summer came so did the rain
But when the water came sun shone again
You see it all comes round from one day to the next
And when the summer came
Sun shone again, sun shone again, sun shone again yeah
So let it out, let it in
There ain't no doubt about it we need somewhere to begin
So I sing crying out, crying in
We need something to believe in
We need something we can, something we can't win
Yeah, yeah

Eluded Me
02:12
|
|||
|
I've been looking for a place I can call my own
I've been looking for a reason but the reason's gone
I've been hoping for some luck but it's not been seen
And it's so far eluded me
Yes it's so far eluded me
I've been waiting for a job that was made for me
I've been hoping for a time that was meant to be
I've been looking for a sound that has not been heard
But it's so far eluded me
Yes it's so far eluded me
I've been looking for a way I can call my own
I've been waiting for a song that has not been sung
I've been hoping for ideas that are so unique
But it's so far eluded me
Yes it's so far eluded me
I've been looking for a dream that did come true
I've been looking for a plan that isn't hard to do
I've been rolling for the odds and a certainty
But it's so far eluded me
Yes it's so far eluded me

Wondering Why
03:08
|
|||
|
Sitting here wondering, wondering why
Do, do, do, do, do, wondering why
Visions and the dreams and thoughts collide
Do, do, do, do, do, wondering why
I'm looking at the world and wondering what it is we wanted to see
And there's something inside telling me go where you want it to be
Where you want it to be, where you want it to be
Sitting here wondering, wondering why
Do, do, do, do, do, wondering why
Deep in the thought of a wandering mind
Do, do, do, do, do, wondering why
I'm looking at the world and wondering what it is we wanted to see
And there's something inside telling me go where you want it to be
Where you want it to be, where you want it to be
Do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do
I'm looking at the world and wondering what it is we wanted to see
'Cause there's something inside telling me go where you want it to be
Where you want it to be, where you want it to be
Wondering, wondering, wondering why

This Is Our Time
02:38
|

|
This, this is our time
We will define, we will define
It's just more fun, here in the sun
We will resign, this is our time
This, this is my time
I will define, I will define
It's just more fun, here in the sun
I will resign, this is my time
If there's something that you've got
Don't just give it away
And if there's something that you need
Then just get it today
And if there's something that you find
That you've got to do
And if there's something left inside
Left inside of you
And if there's something, something, something, something
Give me something, something, something, something
And if there's something, something, something, something
Give me something, something, something, something
So don't be sentimental
If that job it drives you mental
If it's repetitive and dumb
And it ain't helping anyone
Yeah I quit from now on
Yeah I quit from now on
Yeah I quit from now on
Yeah I quit from now on

Stop Wasting Time
02:33
|
|||
|
Stop wasting time
When nothing seems to get easier
Stop wasting time
When nothing seems to get clearer
Those mysteries are just meant to be
Way after way, maybe in the next world
Way after way, maybe in the next world
Maybe in the next world
Stop wasting time
When nothing's on the horizon
Stop wasting time
When plans don't seem to include you
No victory is without defeat
Way after way, maybe in the next world
Way after way, maybe in the next world
Maybe in the next world
Maybe in the next world
Maybe in the next world
Maybe in the next world .....
Way after way

Strange Rearrange
03:40
|
|||
|
How many times have you tried to belong
But all you keep doing goes wrong
Don't be afraid just keep moving on
Let everything, everything come
See the strange, strange, strange, strange
Rearrange, rearrange, rearrange, rearrange
Look for a change in rhythm and rhyme
Where everything has its own time
In harmonies way utopia cries
That something will always defy
See the strange, strange, strange, strange
Rearrange, rearrange, rearrange, rearrange
See the strange, strange, strange, strange
Rearrange, rearrange, rearrange, rearrange
Open your eyes
See the colours dance in the light
Orange, red, green and blue
Combine into something new
See the strange, strange, strange, strange
Rearrange, rearrange, rearrange, rearrange
Rearrange, rearrange, rearrange

Indian Rain
03:08

|
Ah, Indian Rain
Ah, Indian Rain
The water came
Let it rain, rain, rain on you
Into the vein of the tributaries
Ain't it a shame that it won't wait long for you
Along it's way through the river to the sea
Ah, Indian Rain
Ah, Indian Rain
The water came
Let it rain, rain, rain on you
Into the vein of the tributaries
Ain't it a shame that it won't wait long for you
Along it's way through the river to the sea

Kaleidoscope
02:49
|

|
Are you saying that life is like
Life is like a light
That you're hoping to see
Unknown colours
Surrounding now
A Kaleidoscope
Has this all been a dream
Live your life
See the sunshine in the sky
In the summer breeze
Summer breeze
Leave it all behind
'Cause today you're gonna find
That it all comes round in the end
Hear the sound carving out many different way
In the call of the waves
Everything becomes and then
Then it is erased
Has it all been the same
Live your life
See the sunshine in the sky
In the summer breeze
Summer breeze
Leave it all behind
'Cause today you're gonna find
That it all comes round in the end
Live your life
See the sunshine in the sky
In the summer breeze
Summer breeze
Leave it all behind
'Cause today you're gonna find
That it all comes round in the end

Under Northern Sky
04:47

Here in the fifth dimension
High under northern sky
Time seems so different here
Then another year goes by
Still we're nowhere now
And I'm gonna sing out loud
That life is so incomplete
When forever leaving
When forever leaving
When forever leaving
Here in the fifth dimension
High under northern sky
Time seems so different here
Then another year goes by
Still we're nowhere now
And I'm gonna sing out loud
That life is so incomplete
When forever leaving
When forever leaving
When forever leaving
Here in the fifth dimension
High under northern sky
Time seems so different here
Then another year goes by
Still we're nowhere now
And I'm gonna sing out loud
That life is so incomplete
When forever leaving
When forever leaving
When forever leaving

Honolulu sunshine band is coming your way
Honolulu sunshine band is coming your way
I know it's going OK, going OK
Honolulu sunshine band is coming
Coming, coming, coming your way

about
'Sun Drive' from The Gravitons captures the sound of the summer sun and converts it into an album of beautifully crafted tracks. The fourth album continues the eclectic mix of Indie Psychedelia Folk Country & Rock, making it both original yet familiar.
If you're planning a road trip, heading to a festival, flying off on holiday or just want to kick back and relax with some new tunes, this album's for you.
Find yourself transported into new places with sounds influenced by the greats such as Crosby, Stills and Nash, Fleet Foxes, the Mamas and the Papas, Caravan, Pink Floyd, Mumford & Sons, The Beatles, Beach Boys, Bowie, Buffalo Springfield, Neil Young etc....
A 21st century blend of Indie, West Coast Psychedelia, Canterbury Scene, Folk Rock and Alt Folk.
Road Trip Music for your Summer Of Love .... So sit back, relax and drive!
Review:-
The ability to combine these multiple sumptuous guitar based genre..s is impressive. Sun Drive is a signature road-trip, a track order which runs through historical icons - A cool breeze to freshen your dusty, heat ridden brow from the most vicious of balmy afternoons. Spiritual strumming reminiscent of George Harrison and structured arrangements within the frame of an early Peter Gabriel epic, you..re really going to appreciate the lack of emotional gimmickry and limitless escapism this record throws out at you - A carefully worked out audio time line, notably uncomplicated and multi-dimensional in every sense, set your controls to the heart of the sun. -- Mojophenia
