Killing Joke - On All Hallow's Eve Lyrics

when I first heard this song, and the nature of the album, I really thought this song is a wake up call to the world to keep the holy spirit alive.

Love the song...kinda think Tears For Fears could find something actionable here though...LOL

So the real fans that bought the "MMXII" album get the three minute truncated version, while those that contribute to the corporate shills at Apple iTunes get this kick ass extended version. On a single called "Corporate Elect", no less. Oh, the irony...

ANOTHER HAUNTING RIFF! VERY NICE....MY SOUND!

love'm!

The rebirth of the deaths

The logick which begins in "I will no more murder." ends in "I will no more murder."; so: we win. Ha ha.

At last the dark years of grieving come to an end.
Old haunts and habits invoking loved ones and friends.
The graveyards forgotten, the churches are empty now.
I recall the times past and how much I miss you all.

Wake up! Reborn! Join in and celebrate!
Make noise! Wake up the great dead with reverence.
On all hallow's eve.

Endless drumming; rituals to wake up the dead.
Bring gifts and spirits, good wine- just cheese and some bread.
Incense of cigars and spices, pleasures we shared.
Light up the graveyards to show how much we all care.

Wake up! Reborn! Join in and celebrate!
Make noise! Wake up the great dead with reverence.
On all hallow's eve.

"On All Hallow's Eve" as written by and Jeremy Coleman Martin Glover....

This is the best new thing i've heard this year. God bless Killing joke.

Its about time this lot made a Christmas record.

Yes, I don't know about the other members but the lead singer Jaz is quite a devout Christian actually.

Care to cite a source?

@Toernooi Directie Really ?

Nice pic, sets the tone.

I'm completely mesmerised by the picture of the cemetery

Absolutely beautiful lament for those passed over but never forgot but always missed. A great track from a great album from a great band. The fire doth burn bright, blessed be Killing Joke.

bogie woggie :)

actually better than the album version

Why not have had this full version on the album instead of the edit I wonder...such a shame..allows Geordie's guitar to shine just that little bit more between verses.

what would be my inner world of music without Killing Joke ? A deeply missing of senses survivance ...

Well done bud. A killer. Cheers.

Thanks, it really works!

thanx! we cannot buy it in france !
