Sun Arise…I think the widely known version is by Rolf Harris but the Alice Cooper version is so earthy sounding, a raw harsh take on the song, absolutely my preferred version!!

Melanie had a hit with Brand New Key. The Dollyrots take it to a different level.

I do prefer the version by The Dollyrots but your version is not without merit.
