[@AthensCreek]

We are so excited to release our full studio version of House of the Rising Sun/ Amazing Grace it is available for download and streaming on all platforms worldwide 02.20.2020 thank you so much for your support! Stay strong and know you are loved!

[@route6295]

Wow wow wow...

[@cjpriustt]

Athens Creek I’m sorry but I really do like this version so so much better. The arrangement with Nate starting out with a lower voice/key really sets the tone for rest of the song. I was hoping the released version would be the same as this.

[@SwtTrisha8]

Route 62 WOW is right ! What a great find I stumbled upon.

[@tahoma6889]

You guys understand something many do not. Stay in it. I just sent your video to a well established, award winning song writer, told him there is still hope. You stay in this! I have a request. Sunday morning coming down. Do it!!

[@mamankhaerulzaman7561]

I really enjoyed the song. So cute and wonderful. Thanks

[@patbootie9552]

I'm 67, stuck in a nursing home since March 12 2020. Sanity is only kept by my cell phone I am blessed to have. I've lost my ability to walk as we were confined to our rooms for almost 1 yr and suffering from Covid since the USA has decided to let everyone get Covid to beat it you die or live, I've lived with severe breathing, upper respiratory problems. The point of saying all that is: I was a great singer, now I'm not. But I put on my pap machine mask that provides my filled lungs and I bellar out my favorite songs, one being this one. Amazing Grace as well as House of the Rising Sun.

[@retiredyeti5555]

In my 76 years, I have heard many renditions of "House of the Rising Sun", but this rendition is quite possibly the best that I have heard, at least in my opinion. Your voices meld together yet remain separate, and blow the roof off the joint! Impeccable lead guitar playing, also!

[@retiredyeti5555]

I forgot to subscribe 2 days ago - that oversight has been corrected!

I have held a lifelong and concrete belief that masterpieces should be left alone, and not covered or remastered. But y’all changed my mind. Caught me in my feels and I was sobbing by the end. Beautiful.

[@kylebayes4711]

Sad

[@williamjenkins4913]

So I have to point out this song is almost 200 years old. Your belief that songs shouldn't be played with doesn't mesh with the fact that the best music comes from just that.

[@voryoung]

@@williamjenkins4913 yeah, the Animals completely changed the original lyrics, to make it a story about a man with a gambling addiction instead of a woman stuck turning tricks in a brothel, probably more PC. But i do think it's a shame to actually pay for a cover of a song where nothing is changed - if you're going to do a cover do it better or do it differently. This is pretty cool in part because it's a male/female duet. I'd love to see a medly/mashup of the original lyrics and the Animals lyrics in a duet like this.

[@tititata1]

It's 29 Feb 2024 today, and the 8th time I am listening to this wonderful medley since the start of the year!

Thank You Lord for these who sing and play so well !!!

[@jazzgrubsmoor6007]

I love the juxtaposition of these songs sung together at the end. The desperation and pain of "The House of the Rising Sun" being sung, even as the answer to those pains is delivered in "Amazing Grace." It was well performed by the group, and a huge congratulation goes to the arranger of the piece.

[@Me-dc9vr]

This US thee best comment. Not sure everyone understands the brilliance of the combination of these 2 songs being sung together.

[@xxlegnaxx]

i mean no offense when i say that 'juxtaposition' was too large a word for your statement. i also loved their work of art. its a piece that will continue to help me aspire higher. actually i feel like that word might be a statement all on its own huh? can you recommend a good jazz song for me please? i have adhd and my mental health is dwindling

I've heard Amazing Grace sung to the tune of House Of The Rising Sun before - which I thought was very clever - but I hadn't heard both songs put together like this. It is very effective, and goes together as a story-line. The "sinner" of House of The Rising Sun becomes the "saved" of Amazing Grace. Love it!

The unsung hero. The guy that didn’t sing one word was the star of this rendition. I’ve heard countless versions of this song. What made this truly special was his incredible guitar …. Picking…. Ensemble… not sure what the description. He is without a doubt the reason in my mind why this rendition is so amazing.

[@stuartvayro-wright2545]

He didn't play the solos you hear i'm afraid. They were clearly over-dubbed in post production. He's not playing anything close to what you actually can hear. I think that's why you don't see much of him when the solos are on. In fact a lot of the audio has been squeezed in the edit room. Still a decent listen mind you.

[@joebarker9462]

@@stuartvayro-wright2545 I agree totally. He may have laid the track and played the solo but it was definitely over dubbed for the video . Whomever it was doing the solos gives off a definite feel (simple clean deliberate playing)

You'll find the rhythm to "House of the Rising Sun" done to "Amazing Grace" in many hymnals. It was a way to connect the secular to the religious back in late 70's. Their rendition is fabulous. Not original. But fabulous.

[@andrewmyers4775]

Crazy that I found this cover. When my Grandpa passed away a few years ago, we sang Amazing Grace to the tune of House of the Rising Sun. I thought what an odd pair, but it was beautiful when we sang it at his funeral service. It has been since then that I heard the two together. Beautiful.
