Satan's Fall - 'Jesus He Knows Me' (Genesis cover)

D'you see the face on the TV screen
Coming at you every Sunday?
See the face on the billboard?
Well that man is me
On the cover of a magazine
There's no question why I'm smiling
You buy a piece of paradise, you buy a piece of me

I'll get you everything you wanted
I'll get you everything you need
You don't need to believe in hereafter
Just believe in me

Cause Jesus, he knows me
And he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus
All my life
Oh yes, he knows me
And he knows I'm right
Well, he's been telling me everything is alright

I believe in the family
With my ever-loving wife beside me
But she don't know about my girlfriend
Or the man I met last night
Do you believe in God?
Cause that is what I'm selling
And if you wanna get to heaven
Well, I'll see you right

You won't even have to leave your house
Or get out of your chair
You don't even have to touch that dial
Cause I'm everywhere

Jesus, he knows me
And he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus
All my life
Oh yes, he knows me
And he knows I'm right
Well, he's been telling me everything's gonna be alright

Won't find me practicing what I'm preaching
Won't find me making no sacrifice
But I can get you a pocketful of miracles
If you promise to be good, try to be nice
God will take good care of you
Well, just do as I say, don't do as I do

Well, I'm counting my blessings
As I've found true happiness
Cause I'm a-getting richer
Day by day
You can find me in the phone book
Just call my toll-free number
You can do it any way you want
Just do it right away

And there'll be no doubt in your mind
You'll believe everything I'm saying
If you wanna get closer to Him
Get on your knees and start paying

Cause Jesus, he knows me
And he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus
All my life
Oh yes, he knows me
And he knows I'm right
Well, he's been telling me everything's gonna be alright

Cause Jesus, he knows me
And he knows I'm right
Jesus, he knows, he knows
Ooh, yes, he knows me
And he knows I'm right
Jesus, he knows, he knows
I've been talking to Jesus
All my life
Well, he's been telling me everything's gonna be alright



Οι Satan's Fall μας έρχονται από την Φινλανδία. Δημιουργήθηκαν προ επταετίας (αρχικά ως Satan's Cross) και μας συστήνονται κάπως έτσι: «Satan’s Fall are a Finnish heavy metal band originating from Helsinki, Finland in 2015. The band combines instrumental prowess with style-conscious songwriting, resulting in timeless heavy metal».

Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει έναν "ολοκληρωμένο" δίσκο ("Final Day" Δεκέμβριος 2020, Ιανουάριος 2021) demo, ένα ep, τρία singles και μία συλλογή ("Past Of" 2020). Το 2022 τους βρίσκει σε νέα δισκογραφική εταιρεία (Steamhammer/SPV) και με νέο κιθαρίστα (Ville Koskinen).

Στην παρούσα ανάρτηση θα τους ακούσουμε να διασκευάζουν ένα από τα πλέον γνωστά τραγούδια των Genesis, το "Jesus He Knows Me" (το οποίο μας γυρίζει πίσω στο μακρινό 1991 όταν κυκλοφορούσε ο δίσκος "We Can't Dance"). Μουσική σύνθεση των Tony Banks, Phil Collins, Mike Rutherford, στίχοι του Phil Collins...

Satan's Fall - 'Jesus He Knows Me' (Genesis cover)
Δελτίο τύπου: «"Jesus He Knows Me" is a song that tells about televangelist preachers who deceive their congregations (viewers) and use the name of Jesus Christ to extort ridiculous amounts of money from them.

These lyrics, which are highly satirical, were written at the time when televangelism was becoming very popular in America and various parts of the world. Around that time, numerous prominent televangelists in the United States found themselves in scandals that had to do with conning their own followers.

Most of the scam came in the form of the pastors telling their congregations that they would only receive miracles and financial breakthroughs if they gave their monies to “God”.
