Echo & The Bunnymen - Nocturnal Me Lyrics






In an ice-capped fire
Of burning wood
In our world of wire
Ignite our dreams of starry skies
And you and me
As realised our bigger themes

Oh, take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me

Do or die
What's done is done
True beauty lies
On the blue horizon

Who or why
What's one is one
In pure disguise
Of vulgar sons

Oh, take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me

Whatever burns burns eternally
So take me in turns internally
When I'm on fire
My body will be
Forever yours
Nocturnal me

In an ice-capped fire
Of burning wood
In our world of wire
Ignite our dreams of starry skies
And you and me
As realised our bigger themes

Oh, take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me

Echo & The Bunnymen Nocturnal Me Comments
  1. N.... W....

    Listened to this on my Sony Walkman on my way to swim practice in the late 80’s. On a side note...also met Robert Downey and Michael Anthony Hall during filming Johnny Be Good. The late 80’s were excellent. Music was the best it could ever be.

  2. G.... B....

    Y remember STRANGER THINGS

  3. K.... ....

    What the the fuck was Stranger Days. I 'm here for Echo. For fox sake

  4. S.... H....

    Ocean Rain is a masterpiece!

  5. P.... P....

    Stranger Things S01E05

  6. A.... B....

    I first found this from stranger things and loved it, then got obsessed with ghost and their cover, now I’m addicted to all three

  7. J.... M....

    Glad my parents showed me this like 15 years ago, brilliant album

  8. K.... B....

    we did debate if homo sapiens was nocturnal or diurnal and i on behalf of the former

  9. I.... M....

    I didn't even know this song was in stranger things until I looked at the comments on this video.

  10. T.... ....

    I’m here from mixtape because reddie made me sob thank you thats all

    T.... ....

    Taeisnotlistening me too

  11. C.... A....

    I never heard this song in my life.

  12. G.... C....

    An immortal masterpiece!! Thank you Stranger Things for bringing back memories!!

  13. L.... M....

    Western vibes

  14. b.... i....

    Everyone is here from ghost and stranger Things and I'm here from a reddie fan fiction

  15. T.... ....

    this thread has some of the most creative comments i have ever seen

    Are there songs similar to this bc from the whole band this is the one and only track I like ;-;
    (Sry. I rly tried to love them)

  17. f.... n....

    I'm here because i used to own this music when we used to go to the record store and bought the tape...

  18. c.... a....

    mixtape vibes.

  19. J.... F....

    Ocean Rain brought me here

  20. J.... ....

    Why must what "brought you here" bombard the comments? Aren't there other things to talk about when you see other people like what you do? Maybe have a discussion about the musical art we're damned lucky we live where we can even choose what we want to listen to? It's not important how you got here. BE HERE. HEAR. LISTEN.

  21. I.... F....

    Not here cuz of a show. Or cover here cuz; I'm an 80s baby heard this in 1984 ,its about staying up all night ,Ian said an a interview ;

  22. C.... W....

    A timeless song!

  23. B.... b....

    I always thought he said "ice cap fire" instead of "ice capped fire", thought this song was low key about global warming lmao

  24. S.... D....

  42. N.... m....

    I see many are here because of Stranger Things or something called Ghost.


    I'm here because I've been listening to Echo and the Bunnymen since 1980 or so when I was in high school. Anyone old folks like me who've been with these guys from the beginning?

    N.... m....

  43. T.... D....

    Ughh getting sick of all these pathetic attention whorish comments.

    b.... b....

    same, I just wanted to see if the original was better than Ghost's. I don't even remember listening to this in ST

    b.... b....

    @Adriana freitas ok but honestly am I the only one that likes this version a bit more than Ghost? It has more **feeling** to it

  49. M.... ....

    Yeah, Ghost and Stranger Things.
    But I remember starting like this band thanks to Donnie Darko...

  50. I.... ....

    heard this during a dark october night, driving home from work while changing stations. . . . what luck! :D

  51. J.... S....

    Where are my Echo and the Bunnymen fans at?
    Because I don’t relate to the other assholes from my generation, so....

    *sorry a lame ass Netflix show brought you here*
    *sorry you’re a fan of a band that NO ONE listens to*
    *sorry your taste is shit*

  52. C.... M....

    Heard “The Killing Moon” in Donnie Darko. Been a fan of them ever since

  53. N.... J....

    Thanks, Ghost !

  57. T.... G....

  58. D.... R....

  59. C.... F....

    Anybody else think the same?

  63. S.... L....

    nocturnal me song is in the open flame🕯🔥

  64. G.... G....

    In an ice-capped fire

    G.... G....

    a Romanian empiric/vampiric love song of lost innocence into darkness shielded by doubt and grief

  65. T.... f....

    I came from stranger things but this is actually AMAZING

    T.... f....

    Two for None what episode ??

    T.... f....

    @Jordan Adams Season 1, Episode 5

  66. G.... V....

    I'm sorry but I like Ghost's cover of this song better because the vocals are way smoother

    G.... V....

    And it's a lot heavier

    G.... V....

    You should be sorry

    G.... V....

    The vocals in this are far superior and match the vibe of the song.

  67. R.... W....

    Who was a fan before ghost or stranger things? I adore echo and the bunnymen.

    R.... W....

    I was raised on Ocean Rain. But hey, if a popular show can introduce these kids to some good music, so be it.

  68. b.... ....

    Reddit brought me here r/ghostbc

  69. D.... R....

    I brought myself here. Still love Stranger Things, but not a fan of Ghost nor their cover though.

  70. a.... m....

    Pues yo vengo por Ghost 😂 no por Stranger things

  71. J.... P....

    I prefer the ghost cover but this is also good :)

    B.... 6....

    B.... 6....

  73. L.... M....

    no gods, only ghost. 🤘

    L.... M....

    I hate both

  74. M.... ....

    im only here because of stranger things and this amazing song

  75. b.... ....

    Aight sure stranger things but what about the nameless ghouls amongst us?

    b.... ....

    buket_ his father's father's father

    b.... ....

    @Biebergraf 6 his father's father's father's fathers

    L.... ....

    Here from ghost💀

    L.... ....

    Wtf is stranger things?? ghost freaking owned this song 🖤

    L.... ....

    Da fuq is stranger things?

  77. O.... J....

    The chorus certainly gets to the point..."Take me...internally..."

  78. K.... ....

    Strange things? Pfff possers

    K.... ....

    Gatekeeper 🤢

  79. W.... L....

    This is one of those song that I wish I knew what the lyrics were about.

  80. c.... h....

    Great music for watching people fuck and die in the woods.

  81. M.... F....

    Ghost brought me here!

  82. S.... S....

    NAAANCY? NAAANCY?

  83. S.... b....

    Great song, a shame people only know of it because of Stranger Things

    S.... b....

    Whatever turns people off of Beyonce....

    S.... b....

    I've never seen stranger things I'm just exploring new music :)

    S.... b....

    Why is it a shame?

    S.... b....

    @Chernon its not a bad thing people know about it, its a shame they wouldnt have discovered it until that point in time.

    S.... b....

    But we wouldn't know it at all........

  84. G.... I....

    Ghost B.C. :p

  85. J.... F....

    Any one else like this song before stranger things, but still appreciate it being used?

    J.... F....

    Yeah, Echo fan for decades! Suprised to see this song on Stranger Things.

    J.... F....

    I heard the Ghost cover before Stranger Things ever came out, this is good but Ghost's is great. Tobias has a great voice

    J.... F....

    Jonathan Thomas Ian McCulloch’s voice ain’t too shabby. What I find interesting is despite the internet many young people aren’t aware that a lot of their favorite songs are covers. Just today I was explaining that the song Tennessee Whiskey was originally recorded by David Allen Coe and not Chris Stapleton.

    J.... F....

    @Fatty Boombalatty well, I continue the trend of the youth because I did not know that. I know that Marylin Manson covered Sweet Dreams though, so thats gotta count for something, right?

    J.... F....

    Yep, doesn’t need to be said just like a lot of things in the digital age

  86. G.... G....

    you guys are here from stranger things while i'm here from ghost's cover of this song.

    G.... G....

    ghost suck

    G.... G....

    stranger things suck

    G.... G....

    you suck

    G.... G....

    @spiritual cramp r/whooooosh

    G.... G....

    @Thatwitchgirl LoL understand me, i'm here from Ocean Rain album 1984

  87. L.... K....

    NANCY? NANCY?

  88. T.... ....

    NANCY?!? NANCY!!!

    T.... ....

    TadpoleGaming exactly. :)

  89. G.... F....

    I SWEAR TO GOD< NANCY

  90. M.... B....

    forever yours, you lucky girl.

  91. E.... M....

    I love Stranger Things and the song

  92. E.... P....

    NANCEYY

  93. s.... t....

    heaviest Alice in Chains song

    s.... t....

    i agree

    s.... t....

    stephen the dude When you reply to your own comment...I do agree, though :)

  94. s.... t....

    metal as fuck

    s.... t....

    2 years late. But imagine a slamming death metal cover of this song

  95. C.... N....

    ghost did a good cover.

    C.... N....

    Christy Nelson definitely prefer the Ghost one. but the style it was done in is MUCH more my taste so it makes sense I would like it more. sort of like their cover of Abba's I'm a Marionette.

  96. G.... W....

    Mouthbreather...

    G.... W....

    What’s a mouthbreather?

    G.... W....

    Bad guys

  97. B.... M....

    Thanks, Stranger Things.
