Die australischen Hard Rocker GREYSTONE CANYON planen ihr nächstes Studioalbum “Something Borrowed… Something New” für den 05. Dezember. Als Teaser hat die Band jetzt ihr Variante des Thin Lizzy Songs `Suicide` online gestellt, die dem 1975 auf “Fighting“ veröffentlichten Original, besonders gesanglich, verdammt nahe kommt. Insgesamt fundet ihr auf der Scheibe gleich fünf Coverversionen. Da passt dann auch der Titel.
Sünger und Gitarrist Cherry kommentieert das Album so:
“This is our most honest record so far – real instruments, real performances, all captured live in one room. We wanted to remind listeners of the warmth and punch that only true rock bands can create together. It’s pure, old-school energy and we had an absolute blast making it.”

Lyrics:
The paper called it suicide
A bullet from a 45
Nobody cared, nobody cried
Don’t that make you feel sad?
Peter Brent combed his hair and sent
For the police
Policeman came, took Peter’s name
God, may he rest in peace
No one saw the note beside the body
No one knew the problem but my God
He was a suicide
The body remains unidentified
Forgotten in a file
Like the letter that was blown aside
Don’t that make you wanna smile awhile?
Smile a little while
For that suicide
Yeah, baby
No one was really satisfied
‚Bout number 81
The autopsy proved that Peter lied
But they never could find the gun
No one saw the note beside the body
Nobody knew the problem but my God
Suicide
The paper called it suicide
A bullet from a 45
Nobody cared, nobody cried
Don’t that make you wanna boogie?
