JUST LIKE A HURRICANE ©

THE TEARS I CRIED FOR YOU
WERE LOST IN THE POURING RAIN
THEN THE WIND CAME WHIPPING THROUGH
THROUGH MY LIFE LIKE A HURRICANE
IT'S HARD TO SWIM THE TIDE
WHEN THE WATER'S ON THE RISE
JUST LIKE A HURRICANE
JUST LIKE A HURRICANE
JUST LIKE A HURRICANE
YOU CAME BLOWING THROUGH


WHEN I WAS IN THE EYE
MY HEART WAS WARM AND MY SPIRIT HIGH
SO IT WAS HARD TO SEE
THE DESTRUCTIVE FORCE SURROUNDING ME
EMOTIONS SWIRLING 'ROUND
HEARTS LEFT ON THE GROUND
JUST LIKE A HURRICANE
JUST LIKE A HURRICANE
JUST LIKE A HURRICANE
YOU CAME BLOWING THROUGH

I SHOULD HAVE SEEN THE SIGNS
THE WARNING FLAGS WERE ALL ALIGNED
COVERING UP THE SHORE
BLINDING ME TO THE OCEAN'S ROAR
THEN THE WAVE CAME CRASHING THROUGH
BROKE MY HEART IN TWO
JUST LIKE A HURRICANE
JUST LIKE A HURRICANE
JUST LIKE A HURRICANE
YOU CAME BLOWING THROUGH

I'VE MOVED INTO AN OLD LIGHTHOUSE
IN THE DOLDRUMS WAY DOWN SOUTH
BUT EVERY HOUR,DAY AND NIGHT
I SEARCH THE SKY WITH MY SPOTLIGHT
YES I WANT TO FEEL YOUR STORM
MY HEART'S STILL WET AND WARM
JUST LIKE A HURRICANE
JUST LIKE A HURRICANE
JUST LIKE A HURRICANE
YOU CAME BLOWING THROUGH

Lead vocal & fiddle are good

love the instrumentation! A very fun listen, I love this kind of groove.

good song. good lyrics and delivery

Has good instrumentation and a good groove.

Vocalist was very good. Reminded me of someone's voice that I should know but can't quite place it. Nice guitar work, too. The guitar had a way of unrolling the riffs during the solo with good accents, too. Was that a violin in the mix? I would have liked to hear a violin solo but was okay with the accents. Overall, I enjoyed the song.

This is a rockin country blues tune. Fun listen.

The hook is good, needs to be better articulated words are hard to understand.

Very retro-feeling vibe. Vocally reminds me of singers like Terry Stafford, Marty Robbins, etc... Nice use of those background vocals for that retro effect.

Great lyrics, beautiful imagery, metaphors. Kind of a bluesy/country/swampy hybrid with the instrumentation, very cool. I really enjoyed listening to this song

Great feel. You should do well with this.

Good vocal and gets into your wheel house. I like it the song a lot. Catchy hook. Nice Guitar work. Bravo!

Nice tone and nice tune all right! Got all the elements for sure

Great little blues country tune.....5 Stars good buddy... We're from Louisiana so this song hits home to us could easily dance like hurricane to this record...

This sounds more like it could fit in two categories Jazz or Country - very good vocals - love the lead guitar and drums.

Makes me want to dance - would like to here a more upbeat approach on the vocal - it's really good but a little sleepy. I don't think that's a bad thing - but I think it could be 'attacked' more.
Love it though - can really hear it as a movie soundtrack

Nice intro! Very enjoyable piece.

GOOD SWING MUSIC AND GREAT TO DANCE TO OR TAP YOUR FOOT. GOOD VOCALS AND LIKE THE BACKGROUND VOICES

a nice sounding country blues track, very understated laid back to both the vocals and music which gives it a cool vibe. subtle with some cool harmony vocals that give it that extra edge along with the fiddle and guitars
nice track

This song is catchy. A sing like this would be killer in a pub setting.

This is a very strong retro country rock blues with a touch of rock and roll rockabilly. It reminded me of early Elvis Presley and Carl Perkins and that's good company to be in...It had just the right touch of reverb to give it that late 50's echo sound. The hook is very common but that will not hurt this song's chances of being licensed...movies and television and commercials are always looking for retro sound alikes and this is a very cool song...pitch the heck out of it...

I liked the bluesy country sound. Great guitar work. It flowed very well.

great sound great mix great vocals nice work

Hey - a toe-tapper! Fun song, I really enjoyed this, and yes I was literally tapping my foot! Great lyrics, the lighthouse verse was a hoot. A very nice swingin' feel to this. Shop it around to the big boys - this is a good song.

Got a real nice feel to it well done.

Very good beat. It is a very good dance number.

really good song, great blues melody

Nice recording. Good hook and guitar was sweet! Keep up the great work. I liked that little bit of fiddle coming through now and then!!

Shades of early Elvis. Nice vocals, background stacks. Well played and sung. This song really, really rocks.
