Rock’n’roll legends The Quireboys have released a brand-new video for their new single
“Original Black Eyed Son” – which is the stunning lead track taken from their latest album,
the critically acclaimed “Amazing Disgrace”.
Released via Off Yer Rocka Recordings, the single portrays life as a singer in a rock’n’roll
band – on the road in dodgy hotels and staying up until the sun rises just to do it all over
again.
Very apt too as Spike, Guy, Paul and Keith are seemingly never off the road – embarking on
a worldwide tour that takes in Australia, SE Asia, the USA, Canada, various European and UK
dates including a sold-out 35 th Anniversary date at London’s Kentish Town Forum.
“Well I heard it only yesterday, when my eyes hit the morning sun.
Woke up in an alleyway, I missed a day then a year had gone, and I feel like I lost my mind
Thought I was having such a real good time, I vaguely remember the stars in December but
never seen the sun shine.
Now I’m feeling yeah I’m feeling like the prodigal one, yeah I’m feeling - oh yeah the original
black eyed son...
Woke up in a hot sweat in another state in another town, seems just like the same shit, but
that ain’t never gonna wear me down.
Is there more to life then tell me than being a singer in a rock’n’roll band - is there more to
life then hotel dives and staying up till morning again
How does it feel, prodigal one how does it feel black eyed son
Well I’m still on that rolling train, that’s coming round the same track again, all this reckless
behaviour is never gonna save ya it’s driving ya all insane …”
