      I bought Sow Low back in 2008, love it. I also own every CD from Funny Money. Looking forward to the re-release of Miidnight Dynamite and just praying that Kix and/or FM make new material.

      Saw them live back at the original Hammerjacks. I still have mylar confetti and cereal bits in the pockets of my old leather jacket. And I saw Steve Whiteman with Funny Money. I probably still have a piece of the fake money with Steve's face on it.
      One of my favorite bands from the 80's.

    Wow. Just wow. I've been following you for a bit now and you've done a more than fantastic job on every song you've covered. This one gave me goosebumps early on and I immediately knew I was in for something special. There are many singers out there who are extremely talented, but there are few whose voice can really bring out emotions in the listener. This time you brought me to tears. Thank you for doing what you do. Keep it up. Absolutely incredible!

  • @ScottHervieux
    @ScottHervieux 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Awesome cover. Love that you cover 80's hair bands and metal. The 80's were so much better times. The clothes, hair, music, never ending parties/ concerts / bonfires. Back in the late 80's / early 90's I was videoing and promoting local bands. No technology back then (8mm camcorder, stage volume only, 2 vcr's to cut a demo tape together - no special effects). 30 years later, stillba sucker for an 80's power hair ballad.

    Moriah could fantastically and powerfully magnify on a radical level and only his this important song. It sought much much further than could ever be imagined by any vocalist on the planet. Thank you so much for so much dedication and for making me believe that not all is still lost on the dark, cold roads of life.
    I lost very important friends a few months ago, including by suicide in the face of the pressures of life and a mother who is also suicidal... I am fragmenting myself every night with insomnia and sadness. Go on and make me happy.
