Alice pressed against the wall
So she can see the door
In case the laughing strangers crawl and
Crush the petals on the floor
Alice in her party dress
She thanks you kindly
So serene
She needs you like she needs her tranqs
To tell her that the world is clean
To promise her a definition
Tell her where the rain will fall
Tell her where the sun shines bright
And tell her she can have it all
Today
Pass the crystal spread the Tarot
In illusion comfort lies
The safest way the straight and narrow
No confusion no surprise
Alice in her party dressed to kill
She the thanks you turns away
She needs you like she needs her pills
To tell her that the world's okay
To promise her a definition
Tell her where the rain will fall
Tell her where the sun shines bright
And tell her she can have it all
Today
Today
Alice
Don't give it away
Lyrics by Andrew Eldritch

A world away from “She Knows,” which I was just listening to, and decided to see what you were up to.

Joeyyy haha true, however, Sisters of Mercy was the soundtrack to clubbing in Detroit circa ‘89 so it all comes full circle

@@movingunits9217 NO thanks to me, Thanks to You for making such a great homage to a classic. In a way it took me back more than listening to the original can, It's like a classic song freshly played :). It's a Great Version and Obviously made by people who love Alice too.

Blake, singer is from freaking Trenton, MI! Lol

[@Luldaasgmail]

This is so good! I still remember taking a chance on your first self titled EP back in like 2003. It had just been released and since it was on Three One G I picked it up on pink wax and was blown away. I’ve followed M>U ever since and love everything that has been released ! I’ve been searching high and low for a vinyl copy of Collision and found out about this tribute in the process. Huge SoM fan and an even bigger M>U fan. Is this still being released? Any update on this project? 💚

[@keepfotos4487]

"Mom, they're my new friends...'' Your Mother: What?

[@bacop001]

Sounds better than the Sisters sound now, exellent work not dropping the donk on it.

[@b.minister]

That was a really great cover. I gotta be honest: for the first 30 seconds or so of the video I was like "oh, no." but then it sucked me in. Sorry for not trusting your ability to rock the hell out of this song.

[@amphetaminelogic7006]

Same for me Brent....As soon as lrics and lead kick in, its Ok for me. Any attempt for covering this particular track is subject to some serious frowning from my side, but this version is def approved. The bass is a little weak, but i kinda like the drums, and lead guitar and vocals are really good! Most importantly, they have kept the true 'Alice' feel alive.
