THE GREEN MANALISHI
Now when the day goes to sleep
and the full moon looks
And the night is so black
that the darkness cooks
Then you come sneakin around
Makin me do things I don’t want to do
I can’t believe that you
need my love so bad
Always creepin around,
tryin to drive me mad
Bustin in all my dreams
Makin me see things I don’t want to see
Cause you’re the Green Manalishi
with the Two-pronged Crown
All my dryin is up,
sall your bringin is down
Just takin my love, then slip away
Leavin me here just
tryin to keep from following you

MojoNotes
Mojo’s Army’s very first recording. Mojo decided that a cover song he was familiar with would be the best way to learn the process of recording and mixing in Garageband. He went back to the haunting original for the roots, and with the supercharged Judas Priest version in mind came up with a rendition all his own. Notable for its single-take guitar track and improvised outro.
