Corner of the Earth

Corner of the Earth by Jamiroquai is dedicated to Claudie, the woman of my life. Although our musical tastes could not be further apart, we have a mutual love for this Jamiroquai track. In fact, Corner of the Earth is Claudie's all-time favorite song, which makes it the perfect song to cover. And musically I saw plenty of opportunities to increase the dynamics compared to the original version. Judge for yourself, but many first-time listeners mark this one as the most surprising and varied track on the EP.

Timo Somers has a very prominent role with his guitar solos, ranging between arabic/eastern and groovy/bluesy and furious shredding over the fast parts.

The same goes for Chris Clancy who sings amazing parts.

Corner of the Earth

Little darling don't you see the sun is shining

Just for you, only today

If you hurry you can get a ray on you,

come with me

just to play

Like every humming bird and bumblebee

Every sunflower, cloud and every tree

I feel so much a part of this

Nature's got me high and it's beautiful

I'm with this deep eternal universe

From death until rebirth

This corner of the earth is like me in many ways

I can sit for hours here and watch the emerald feathers play

On the face of it I'm blessed

When the sunlight comes for free

I know this corner of the earth, it smiles at me

So inspired of that there's nothing left to do or say

Think I'll dream, til the stars shine

The wind it whispers and the clouds don't seem to care

And I know inside, that it's all mine

It's the chorus of the breaking dawn

The mist that comes before the sun is born

To a hazy afternoon in May

Nature's got me high and it's so beautiful, yeah yeah

I'm with this deep eternal universe from death until rebirth

You know that this corner of the earth is like me in many ways

I can sit for hours here and watch the emerald feathers play

On the face of it I'm blessed

When the sunlight comes for free

I know this corner of the earth, it smiles at me

This corner of the earth, is like me in many ways

I can sit for hours here and watch the emerald feathers play

On the face of it I'm blessed

When the sunlight comes for free

I know this corner of the earth, it smiles at me

At me
