Springfield, Rick - Under The Milky Way Lyrics






Sometimes when this place gets kind of empty
Sound of their breath fades with the light
I think about loveless fascination
Under the Milky Way tonight

Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find

And it's something quite peculiar
Something that's shimmering and white
Leads you here despite your destination
Under the Milky Way tonight

Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find

Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find

Lower the curtain down in Memphis
Lower the curtain down all right
I got no time for private consultation
Under the Milky Way tonight

Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find

Under the Milky Way tonight
Under the Milky Way tonight
Under the Milky Way tonight

    Rick I'd love to hear you do more covers maybe psychodelic furs, depeche mode, or even the cure. You got the curiosity peaked.. I wanna hear more lol.

  11. a.... ....

    Happy 69th birthday, Rick! And thanks for a great cover of a great song by your fellow Australians The Church.

  12. C.... S....

    I read a comment that said he Americanized it. How? Sounds like he stuck real close to the original just tweaked it a bit is all. Piss off! It's all Apple's in my opinion.

  13. C.... S....

    Added this version to my playlist lol. Idk it's a great fuckin version...

  14. R.... A....

    Nice one Rick!

  15. C.... S....

    I keep coming back to hear this version. I like it so much better.

  16. J.... T....

    Very cool Guy ❤❤

  17. C.... S....

    Holy shit! I loved the church's version but Ricks has officially taken over. I'm loving some of these covers!!!

  18. M.... K....

    Two other songs Rick should cover

  19. M.... K....

    the only thing better than this would be Iain Glen playing this for me and playing the bagpipe in the middle eight.

  20. s.... ....

    It takes balls to cover ANY song, and Springfield did an excellent job with this.

  21. K.... S....

    Until she broke up with him

  22. K.... S....

    Was her fiance

  23. K.... S....

    Which she's laughing

  24. K.... S....

    Ricky from Springfield was her ex-boyfriend

  25. D.... P....

    Great. ..

  26. F.... P....

    In a blokish way, I LOVE Rick and The Church.

  27. W.... M....

    It's all good

  28. B.... P....

    I'm going to have to agree rami. I've heard a dozen covers of this great Church tune and this is near the top. Good job Rick!

  29. r.... p....

    Surprisingly good cover

  30. B.... S....

    it's a little low for his voice...

  31. G.... R....

    isso é bom!

  32. T.... ....

    I liked the whole thing, but I LOVE it from 3:44 to the end. There's some great magic going on there.

  33. K.... ....

    Jimmy Little is a legendary Australian singer who passed away earlier this year. Some years back, he did a very good version of Under The Milky Way, which I thought was better than this one.

  34. h.... ....

    who the fuck is jimmy little

    h.... ....

    Google?

  35. N.... ....

    Sounds pretty Americanized to me.

  36. A.... R....

    Yes he was, he was also on some soap opera back in the day.

    A.... R....

    yes of course played a hunky doctor

  37. K.... ....

    This is a little too similar to the original version. It's not bad, but it's not particularly original either. I like the Jimmy Little recording better.

  38. 5.... ....

    Like the way he has song it in a low register, shows respect for the song, he could have "americanised" it but he resisted = good cover

  39. d.... ....

    Great cover of an excellent song by an outstanding musical talent. To hell with the haters and naysayers.

  40. j.... h....

    rick does this justice, the church are such a underated band

  41. c.... ....

    Good job Rick, I'm surprised and actually impressed.

  42. B.... ....

    Meh......................beats the hell outta the Kill Hannah version at least. Still nowhere near the caliber of the original, though.

  43. j.... ....

    Pretty faithful to the original....

    j.... ....

    Not even close.

  44. S.... ....

    OK, that was painful.

  45. J.... C....

    buen cover

  46. t.... ....

    Rick Springfield covering a classic 80's song so far apart from his own style? HE NAILED IT. This is the best cover of this song to ever grace the airways. WOW! KUDOS to you. Never would ahve thought that Jessie's Girl would be so dark. Keep it up..

  47. B.... B....

    wow
    NICE cover

  48. W.... ....

    am also a fan of The Church for a long long time and I find that this is a really good cover.

  49. g.... ....

    great cover, I love it

  50. s.... ....

    As a longtime fan of The Church, I have to say that this is the best cover of this song that I've heard so far. I was surprised when Rick covered this song because it's not the type of music that I thought he would listen to, but it turns out that he really likes The Church, not just this song.

  51. e.... b....

    Not bad
