►LYRICS - Here Comes the Sun
Here comes the sun (doo-doo-doo-doo)
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right
Little darling
It's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling
It feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right
Little darling
The smile's returnin' to their faces
Little darling
It seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes [x5]
Little darling
I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling
It seems like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right
Here comes the sun (doo-doo-doo-doo)
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right
It's all right

[@curtishanson2456]

I grew up in a musical home. My dad was a famous composer, arranger and a world-class pianist. He earned a Doctorate in music and performed all over the world. He died 10 years ago, but during his career he worked with a lot of groups including the Beatles. I started studying music when I was just 3 years old and dad taught me theory, orchestration, etc. so by the time I was in high school, I was performing at a high level. I went on to form a record label, music studio complex and a concert touring company. We signed a lot of great artists. However, you guys are the best I have ever seen for a lot of reasons. One, you bring great soul to your music. Two, you are able to cross through many genres and actually improve songs that are considered perfect. Three, your orchestration is just right and really complements your voices. Four, your musicianship is insane and many people may not realize how good you play. Five, you really are naturally talented and don't require thousands of dollars of enhancements from studio computers....like most artists today. Six, the joy on your faces tells me you really love what you do and money isn't your primary motivator. In summary, I wish you had been around 25 years ago when I was running our label. I would have begged you to join us. You are truly amazing and your rendition of this song is nothing short of incredible. Thanks for what you do.

[@gatosgarage2179]

Wow

[@adjoho1]

Second this. I've been playing music since I was 5. Multi instrumentalist. Everything you've said is spot on. The musicianship is outstanding. For me, personally, the performance is what tops it off. They are all so in sync with each other, and absolutely glow playing together - that's the special sauce that you won't get anywhere else. Absolutely exceptional.

Same here. We are a musical family also and my brother is an accomplished musician. The rest of us appreciate music and sing along. From the Beatles in the 60s, and .other British invasion groups, girl and motown groups, Broadway and TV musicals plus my mom and I would sing together ❤️

You CAN'T cover such a song. It's so simple, so perfect, so beautiful.

[@JB-qw2jk]

This song ( the original version ) was the final music at my dads funeral over 2 years ago. We wanted something a little cheery to accompany a slideshow of him as we ended the service, and he loved The Beatles. Ironically, I haven’t been able to listen to it until now; it just felt too raw. This performance was just lovely. A real breath of fresh air and it warmed my heart. He played the bass, and he would have loved this. Thank you for sharing, Petersens. ❤️

[@sydneyevans2637]

J B, friend of mine wanted "Hello Goodbye" at his funeral. Haven't seen him in years but he would be in his early seventies. You picked a wonderful song for your father. It's my favorite George Harrison song.

My favorite Beatles song by my favorite Petersens…Julianne! Can life get any better?

[@michaelkobulnicky3399]

There is a purity about them and lovely music.

[@arkady714]

This number gave this old Beatlefreak chills. Bloody brilliant.

[@MikeFurl]

Explain this to me. For 60 years my main music has been classical and opera. Next would come ‘50s & ‘60s pop hits, followed by my parent’s generation: Gershwin, Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, etc. Now tell me, how did I get so addicted to a Bluegrass Band? Really. And the main attraction at Branson at that. I don’t know what’s going on with me but nothing is wrong with the Petersen family and friend. They are perfect, I love listening to them, and I’m going to stop questioning myself. Just sit back and enjoy.

[@dkearl6827]

They have tight harmony, play in tune, and have no crazy agendas- other than to share beautiful music. We need this goodness, it lifts us. (No matter our music style preferences.)

[@kevinallman6700]

Haha so many similarities to my life, laughing but in a good way 😊 I think it's something to do with the musicianship... to play bluegrass you need to be able to play to a decent level but also be hungry to learn more and learn about life as well!!❤️ peace joy love and happiness to you and your family ♥️

Ok, wow, what an incredible rendering of a Beatles classic. Julieanne's sweet winsome voice is perfect for this song. The girls harmonies are always a delight to hear. The guys and mom are great but the beating heart of this group are the three sisters.

I possess no musical knowledge or skill other than singing off key in the shower, but every time I hear them perform I just hear perfection and joy!!!

[@ryusei323]

The mom playing the bass in the background is the anchor--both musically and the one that got them to always practice. Shout out to the parents that keep music going!

The violin and the banjo are a fantastic addition to this song. I'd bet George Harrison would love this version of his song, if he were still alive. Wonderful!

[@williamrichards3707]

I've heard hundreds and hundreds of covers of the song since it was written. I can't speak for anybody but myself, but for me this is the most beautiful cover of the song I've ever heard without a doubt! These kids are beautiful in every way and a true blessing to anyone listening. May you all have long wonderful lives...

The Petersen's group is very talented and I can't say that Julienne is the best singer, but without a doubt she has the most unique voice in the group. She has a very soft gentle voice, a distinctive tone with a slight bit of natural vibrato.

[@Jitterbuggn]

I just love the way the older sisters look at the “baby.” Not just love but genuine adoration. The Petersons always make me smile and warm my heart!

The song naturally reminds me of Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises. The sun is always a symbol of hope and brightness. Julianne’s sweet singing sounds very comfortable. The music family is rarely seen in the world and deserves praising.

Absolutely excellent arrangement of a great song. Great multi-instrumental version and the vocal harmony is beautiful. Great performance.

[@rogerd9150]

My favorite singing performance by Julianne yet. Such a unique voice. If I heard her on the radio I would know it was her immediately. I think that’s a special quality that not many singers have.

[@jazzgrubsmoor6007]

This one is delightful. The light whimsical nature of the song makes for a perfect situation for Julianne to sing the lead vocals. What amazes me though is the way Katie and Ellen adjust their voices on the harmonies to blend perfectly with Julianne's light soprano part. Many years of singing in a church choir have taught me that it isn't as easy as they make it sound.

[@alecepting1371]

Yes, if you watch the Cranberries Dreams song she does, Katie's harmonizing really enhances Julianne's voice. In that number, Julianne is like the mandolin that she plays providing the accent, while Katie is providing the mood as she does with her fiddle. The technique is especially effective at their outdoor concerts, with the right amount of mixing and amplification: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGPRfJ2rqrKteck.

Having the fountain behind them was a great touch.

Very moving. I had the pleasure of meeting George on the set of the first Traveling Wilburys video, "Handle with Care." He was strumming this song on his acoustic guitar while sitting around waiting. It was a moment I'll always cherish. Such a kind man he was. Humble, down-to-earth. I'm sure he'd love this bluegrass rendition. Well done and thank you.

[@sevenofnine78]

My tears are rolling down always when I see Julianne and hear her voice… I’m now 44, but as I was in her age I had an long time girlfriend like an sibling of Julianne. She died in an car accident as she was 16 because of a drunken driver… I’m happily married with an awesome wife and 2 great sons now, but this Angel voice always remembers me to beautiful situations long time ago. Would be great to meet Julianne one time during an concert in Germany, as I volunteering work for the German Red Cross and I support concerts since years all over Germany. Last weekend we had the largest Folk festival in Germany in my hometown… Maybe in some years.
