This is a "VideoSong", a style popularized by Pomplamoose, who inspired me to want to create one. All video clips are taken from the actual recording sessions. No lip-syncing. What you see is what you hear. Thanks to Kira Smith for putting it all together!

Lyrics:

Now...
The mist across the window hides the lines
But nothing hides the colour of the lights that shine
Electricity so fine
Look and dry your eyes
We...
So tired of all the darkness in our lives
With no more angry words to say
Can come alive
Get into a car and drive
To the other side

Steppin' out
Into the night
Into the light
Steppin' out
Into the night
Into the light

We...
Are young but getting old before our time
We'll leave the T.V. and the radio behind
Don't you wonder what we'll find
Steppin out tonight

You...
Can dress in pink and blue just like a child
And in a yellow taxi turn to me and smile
We'll be there in just a while
If you follow me

Steppin' out
Into the night
Into the light
Steppin' out
Into the night
Into the light

  • I love this song and your version is awesome!

  • @rocketsauce77 thanks! I've always loved this song too.

  • Nice production and mix. Found this on the Miktek website while looking over the Miktek C7.

    What is your opinion of the C7? I am about to add a new to vocal mic to my project studio and this is one I come across. Is it a game changer for you? What are your suggestions? Thanks again for the effort you put into this cover I am sure Joe was blown away.

  • @ThePhilip888 thanks! I like the C7, and have used it on vocals, pianos, acoustic guitars, drums, and percussion. I'm also starting to use the CV4 which I really dig.

  • Great job!

  • @TheErniebear thank you!

  • Tom, what an awesome rendition. This is one of my favorite songs from my childhood. I can't believe it took me a year to see this! I've recommended this video to several others and also bought the track on iTunes. Can't wait to hear more from you!

  • Great Job...but I kinda miss the moving bass line.

  • This is a great rendition of Joe's tune! My only suggestion?....The drums. A real drummer would have made this even better.
