I've got a telescope Velvet moons of blue I was movin' through And my ears were cold I couldn't hear you right I couldn't hear you right Then it all went black And, honey, in the dark I had a heart attack Now it's midnight on the ocean I'm never coming back Never comin' back You drifted through my window On a silver breeze Smellin' of a dream I heard the boats Oh, lady midnight They run through me on rapid streams They're movin' on Movin' on I'm not so sure what's goin' on But again, the sun, the moon went black Shook me 'round, then shook me back I heard the birds, I heard the bells I heard the mournin'/mornin' rising from the hills I'll wait for it to clean me up To shake me up, to wake me up (all the pretty people, are they, livin' in this little garden?) Wake me up, wake me up, wake me up, wake me up (spring in there, colors, eyes, and tonight the moon won't catch you cryin') Wake me up, wake me up, wake me up, wake me up (all the pretty people, are they, livin' in this little garden) Wake me up, wake me up, wake me up, wake me up (spring in there, colors eyes, and tonight the moon won't catch you cryin')
The spinning wheel I woke up to a dream Hung my feet in the flames I saw things no man should ever see. I was fallin' in love, Or at least thought I was All along, I've been lost in some velvet dream. I put all things where they belong. Indeed I was right, indeed I was wrong. I heard some silver song Dripping down from the sun For the first time in my mind It all was real. I saw sunbeams bend In the mouth of some friend All along he's been asleep on The spinning wheel. I put all things where they belong Indeed I was right, indeed I was wrong. Oh, hands of the sun Some ten thousand strong, You keep turnin' me off And turnin' me on. You keep turnin' me off And turnin' me on. Always turnin' me off And turnin' me on
2:42 the live version of Midnight and a telescope is amazing! Better then the recorded version. More Dancy with some dark undertones. And the trace off to Whitney is beautiful
Hey thanks for the uploads! I believe the first song is called "spinning wheel" and the second in this video is "Midnight Monday and a Telescope". I will be checking out your other two videos now, thanks again :)
Hey andy whitaker, thanks so much for uploading these, just wanted to let you know that these song were released on cotton jones first LP (when they were still known as cotton jones basket ride) called the river strumming...
I am amazed.... such powerful lyrics and settle music. Together it is perfect. I am completely astonished . You will sail as far as the wind can blow. Will you ever come through Utah? Also where are you from???
god bless who ever recorded this masterpiece so long ago...
Just pure music at its best. Found this band much later on but better late than never.
Yeah baby!
Wish I could like this video 100x. I keep coming back to it.
There is something about this..
@@zachtthomas it’s the vibes. Love how the band pulls in as one and circles towards eachother. That’s real musicians feeling their noise.
This is beautiful. I’m so late to the game.
His solo stuff is damn good also. Michael Nau.
Cotton Jones is timeless, you aint late bud!
Never too late for good music
Indeed you were right, but indeed you were wrong
The looks and the feeling between Michael and Whitney shows us how much they are in love with each other!
Amazing sound!
Spinning Wheel kills me.
'... tonight the moon will catching you crying' whitney brings the haunting keys and ethereal notes.
omg 11 years ago...so good.
Sometimes the voice is just perfectly warmed up - so glad this was captured
Love..love these guys.
favorite video of all time, holy crap this is amazing!!!!!
and the eyes swell...soo beautiful
Glad I’m not the only one ☝🏽
amazing vibs
The look michael and whitney give each other at 04:45
I've got a telescope
Velvet moons of blue
I was movin' through
And my ears were cold
I couldn't hear you right
I couldn't hear you right
Then it all went black
And, honey, in the dark I had a heart attack
Now it's midnight on the ocean
I'm never coming back
Never comin' back
You drifted through my window
On a silver breeze
Smellin' of a dream
I heard the boats
Oh, lady midnight
They run through me on rapid streams
They're movin' on
Movin' on
I'm not so sure what's goin' on
But again, the sun, the moon went black
Shook me 'round, then shook me back
I heard the birds, I heard the bells
I heard the mournin'/mornin' rising from the hills
I'll wait for it to clean me up
To shake me up, to wake me up
(all the pretty people, are they, livin' in this little garden?)
Wake me up, wake me up, wake me up, wake me up
(spring in there, colors, eyes, and tonight the moon won't catch you cryin')
Wake me up, wake me up, wake me up, wake me up
(all the pretty people, are they, livin' in this little garden)
Wake me up, wake me up, wake me up, wake me up
(spring in there, colors eyes, and tonight the moon won't catch you cryin')
They are so good. Michael Nau is a legend.
You are the best, thank you for your amazing music.
Goddd his voice
Love these cats. My good dear friend covers spinning wheel. Such a refreshing change
The spinning wheel
I woke up to a dream
Hung my feet in the flames
I saw things no man should ever see.
I was fallin' in love,
Or at least thought I was
All along, I've been lost in some velvet dream.
I put all things where they belong.
Indeed I was right, indeed I was wrong.
I heard some silver song
Dripping down from the sun
For the first time in my mind
It all was real.
I saw sunbeams bend
In the mouth of some friend
All along he's been asleep on
The spinning wheel.
I put all things where they belong
Indeed I was right, indeed I was wrong.
Oh, hands of the sun
Some ten thousand strong,
You keep turnin' me off
And turnin' me on.
You keep turnin' me off
And turnin' me on.
Always turnin' me off
And turnin' me on
2:42 the live version of Midnight and a telescope is amazing! Better then the recorded version. More Dancy with some dark undertones. And the trace off to Whitney is beautiful

they are from nowhere
@@Truth5eeker33 Maryland… which is basically nowhere by US standards lol
Minute 2:40 for Midnight Monday, And A Telescope
I love this version so much more than the orginal. More rounded and it's so damn good! Whitney's vocals 🤌
Mike is just fuckin genius. His guy has the most tits guitar. That Ibanez AS83 Violin finish. I want one. Be well.
Wow
this one has a stronger southern twang that I'm not a huge fan of - still such a beautiful voice and song though
Beautiful ✨ you keep turning me off and turning me on .
