"Dont Close Your Eyes" by Kix Cover by Moriah Formica

Fan request from Scott.

[@deancramer]

I played with the guys from Kix for 18 years in the band Funny Money. I just sent it to them. Nice job...

[@deancramer]

@BR549 OU812 Howdy, again!

[@deancramer]

@BR549 OU812 That's great to hear, thanks.

[@cass7142]

You go BOULDER 🤟🤟🤟

[@deancramer]

@David Shelmerdine guitar.

[@robheg382]

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.

[@fuddrucker74]

Holy shit... That is all. Just incredible

[@billbarnhart3909]

Kix is my hometown band. Steve lives not far from me. Great group of guy's.

[@gsdfan8455]

They were one of my favorite bands as a teenager and into my twenties. Pretty cool that you’ve met them

[@Peekay9]

One of my favorite bands. Kix > GnR

[@chefdab]

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.

[@Peekay9]

@@chefdab - sounds fantastic. If I had access to a Delorean time machine, a Kix concert would be at the top of my list.

[@trainwreck1518]

I come down to OC Bikefest to see them... not this year. Thanks Covid!

[@masterblaster3914]

OMG MORIAH!!! You just get BETTER and BETTER!!! Keep the 80's hair classics coming!!!!

[@victorpirik1758]

THE QUEEN of 80's hair classics!!!

[@davedupuis2069]

Man this girl is incredible. She could sing the phone book and it'd sound amazing!

[@robeastwood4918]

Excellent! Fantastic work! I got chills on the outro chorus. Vocals were spot on! 5 Star!

[@dirtintodust]

The ending was just so.... Wow. Would love to hear her take on Scorpions - Still Loving You or Krokus - Screaming in the Night.

[@Gearhead-en8dz]

Krokus would be cool, or some Aldo Nova!

[@devismommy]

No shit right? I'd love to see her cover those songs.

[@arthurfitzsimmons7413]

Yes still loving you..awesome

[@arthurfitzsimmons7413]

YOU ROCK..THANK YOU

[@philipgentry6788]

Krokus good choice love to hear that to

[@georgiacornjerker1457]

Thank You. One of the best memories I have from high school includes this song, a dirt road, and a beautiful girl.

[@SavageAirCinema]

Reminds me of being an 18 year old, just outta high school, in 1990.

[@alejandromann3615]

So far my favorite is one where you sing steelheart I'll never let you go

[@andybowlin2385]

Love seeing the younger people keeping 80's rock alive would love to hear a scorpions song still loving u maybe?

[@keeponlivin81]

[@teddyboehm9252]

I would love 💖 to hear Moriah do Scorpions stuff expecially ballads would be awesome 🥰

[@666Balor]

Moriah, I am glad that in the 21st century a diamond like you saw the light of day :) Thank You ... Greetings from Poland. Rock is alive and well as long as there are people sensitive to music and talent like yours, Stay Heavy \ m /. Forgive my poor English, I support Google Translator :)

[@williamrivera817]

this song is good but when you sing is more beautiful, love your voice, you are a great singer 👍🎵 thank you for sharing many blessings 🙏👍 I'm William Rivera 😀👏👍🙏🙏♥️

[@ScottHervieuxOutdoors]

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.

[@MrPearldrums1]

Absolutely and amazingly executed.... Kudos....👍🤟💪🏻

[@jsguitargeek1432]

I swear every time I hear Moriah she sounds better... amazing

[@shawnoverton7625]

You are # 1 Moriha Formica! Congratulations on all of your comments thank you. From shawn Overton. And your band is pretty cool too Lady!

[@luciender76]

This song has a haunting presence to it..... sorrowful. I love it and love that you added so much soul to it.

[@MooShaka89]

I think it's about the person singing talking his girl out of suicide :)

[@TheWorld-of7dd]

Wow incredible voice performance especially towards the end😮🎉🎉

[@tonyeckman4822]

Damn. Steve Whiteman would be proud. Indelibly breathtaking. Your definitely this generation's Ann Wilson.

Beautiful song and You are Beautiful too, you are a great singer, thank*u* for sharing ♥️🎸🎵*

[@jimformanek4169]

Holy shit. I grew up in the 80's to KIX and didn't think anyone could sing like that. Loved seeing you live in Minneapolis and would love to see you add this to your set. WOW!

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!

[@jen2702]

Whoa you go girl! Ever think of covering “ Cry Little Sister”?? You’d rock it! 🎼🎤🎼
