    My belated tribute to this great band and the late Tim Smith. Like a lot of people I only discovered Cardiacs following Tim's death but they have since become one of my favourite bands and this is definitely a contender for their best track in my opinion, although that list is long.
    To purchase Cardiacs' music and merch visit their website here - www.cardiacs.net/
    This track was mixed by my bandmate, Jack - czcams.com/channels/ZZgdvQxbGmIeGEdzFWZ-1g.html

      In the future there will be a German compound word that describes musicians who discovered Cardiacs in lockdown, and have since been getting theirs heads blown off as they peer down the rabbit hole...
      Great cover by the way 🙏

      @@TheProds No offence meant when I say that this is a worthy cover but not a patch on the original. Regardless, great job and you have a fantastic voice (plus great skills with the other instruments). Like you I found Cardiacs after Tims death - you really have made something worthy of the term "tribute". I salute you and again no offence meant. I really enjoyed your cover which I found after some late night listening to Cardiacs. Few could match up to the leader of the starry skies though :)

      Comment misdirected our way but geez, no need for such a miserly opening statement! Just appreciate the effort Mr Parrish here spent in learning a song you admire and bothering to put together a video for us to enjoy! It's a lot of work and it's a great job.

    I was at a cardiacs gig in the crazy house in Liverpool in the nineties with some friends. Certain substances had been imbibed. I was dancing back and forwards like a flower at the back of the crowd. Tim was amused with my styles and i caught his eye walked through the crowd and reached my hand out to him. He walked across the stage and reached down shaking my hand with a big smile on his face.
    I pass that handshake to you today. Thanks for reminding me of the beauty and complexity of cardiacs and this lovely hymn.

      There's an incredible live version on here played by ex Cardiac members, Spratleys Japs and Mike Vennart, who does an incredible job singing it. I was there at the recording and Tim was at the side of the stage in a wheelchair. Just incredible atmosphere. People near me were in tears. Amazing night. Like you, I came to them very late.

    Lyrics
    We cut all his eyes we did
    Squeezed the lids and down the grog into hole
    He skip with cow eyed smile to the blissful
    Into craggy dress and we will we praise him
    We will praise him off his pins
    Clear him of all sins
    Oh my! we sang with strength to carry on
    Encouraged him to sing along
    We sang of all the world and praised him hooray!
    Stay alive to live or without
    And he is down all over and out
    Watch us hang on shoulders as tall as gold as
    Feely hand and finger around all we
    And look to see if we care if he is heaven sent or
    Hell bent but we will praise him
    We will praise him all away
    Praise him all away
    My arms chancing and you will no way
    Live long enough to repay me
    I praise you anyway always
    Wipes last with brown and pale
    Dirty boy he gone all stale
    And down the stair and hallway crawling
    And pig and toast and kitchen brawling
    Night-time days are all weekless
    Alarm charm, he's all up and dressed
    He dirty boy, he bathroom dances
    And check his jam and breathe on glasses
    Spiny grip brings all off 'Mr. Regal Jelly' in hand
    Warm feel and suck regal man suck bland
    Suck bland away and he a sleepy cow-eyed dog
    He treading soft sand
    Kiss and stroke and praise him
    Stroke and praise him
    All is worth a kiss
    Not how to cleanse
    And fowl preserver of sick somehow don't worry now
    Hold his mouth and stop him breathing
    Over and out
