WAITIN' ON A SUNNY DAY - V1 | uncirculating | |
WAITIN' ON A SUNNY DAY - V2a | 4:18 | RISING |
WAITIN' ON A SUNNY DAY - V2b | 4:13 | promo CD |
Note: Written and recorded (V1) at Thrill Hill East by Bruce sometime during 1998. That recording has not surfaced. The song was practiced at rehearsals for the E Street Reunion Tour in early 1999 and a complete band version was performed during the soundcheck for the June 17, 1999 show in Germany - but it was not played during the show or at any later show on the 1999–2000 tour. Re-recorded in Atlanta in early 2002 with the E Street Band and issued on the album. Soozie Tyrell contributes violin and background vocals, while Brendan O'Brien plays glockenspiel and orchestra bells. V2b is a 4:13 version that runs 6 seconds shorter than the regular The Rising track and also features a notably different mix; with both the lead and backing vocals as well as the bass lines and sax solo being much clearer, louder, and generally more upfront. In addition, the drum sound also was altered considerably, and there are about 5 extra seconds of Bruce doing his high-pitched "oh-oh-oooh" vocals not included on the album version. Issued as a US-only 1-track promotional single in 2003.
Studio Sessions: The Rising
Waitin' On A Sunny Day |
It's raining but there ain't a cloud in the sky
Musta been a tear from your eye
Everything will be okay
Yeah, funny, thought I felt a sweet summer breeze
Musta been you sighing so deep
Don't worry we're gonna find a way
I'm waitin', waitin' on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Yeah I waitin' on a sunny day
Without you I'm working with the rain falling down
I'm half a party in a one dog town
I need you to chase the blues away
Without you I'm a drummer girl that can't keep a beat
An ice cream truck on a deserted street
I hope that you're coming to stay
I'm waitin', waitin' on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Waitin' on a sunny day
Yeah!
Go!
Hard times, baby, well they come to tell us all
Sure as the ticking of the clock on the wall
Sure as the turning of the night into day
Your smile, girl, brings the morning light to my eyes
Lifts away the blues when I rise
I hope that you're coming to stay
Because
I'm waitin', waitin' on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Waitin' on a sunny day
Hey!
