“Harvest Moon,” covered by Reina del Cid … (Folk / Indie Rock – Music to Your Ears, Covers–46)

in #music5 years ago

We know where the music's playing, Let's go out and feel the night.

Reina del Cid – “Harvest Moon”

“Harvest Moon” (2019 – original from 1992)

This is a pared-down but fine version of Neil Young’s 1994 classic “Harvest Moon.”  The (mostly) acoustic music blends perfectly with the bucolic outdoor setting. And the kids and pets frolicking in the background only add to the pleasant atmosphere.  

Nature and Love

The natural setting is ideal for this song, which Matthew Greenwald praised for its expression of "the power of nature”  and its celebration of “lifetime love.”

Reina del Cid

Reina del Cid is the stage name of the US singer / songwriter Rachelle Cordova, as well as the name of her band.  

The Queen and Her Warrior

The Spanish word “Reina”  means “Queen.”  Cordova has nicknamed her guitar “El Cid,”  after a medieval Castilian warrior who was nicknamed thus by the Moors.    

Reina del Cid has released 3 albums, and will soon release their 4th.    

With the goal of remaining independent, the band has also released numerous videos on YouTube, of either their own songs or cover versions of notable folk and folk-rock songs. They continue to attract a large following on the platform.  (Image source)

Come a little bit closer
Hear what I have to say
Just like children sleepin'
We could dream this night away

But there's a full moon risin'
Let's go dancin' in the light
We know where the music's playin'
Let's go out and feel the night

Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon

When we were strangers
I watched you from afar
When we were lovers
I loved you with all my heart

But now it's gettin' late
And the moon is climbin' high
I want to celebrate
See it shinin' in your eyes

Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon

Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon
