►LYRICS - Here Comes the Sun
Here comes the sun (doo-doo-doo-doo)
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right

Little darling
It's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling
It feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right

Little darling
The smile's returnin' to their faces
Little darling
It seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes [x5]

Little darling
I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling
It seems like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right

Here comes the sun (doo-doo-doo-doo)
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right
It's all right

Here comes the sun (doo-doo-doo-doo)
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right

Little darling
It's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling
It feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's alright

Little darling
The smile's returnin' to their faces
Little darling
It seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes [x5]

Little darling
I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling
It seems like years since it's been clear

Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right

Here comes the sun (doo-doo-doo-doo)
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right

I grew up in a musical home. My dad was a famous composer, arranger and a world-class pianist. He earned a Doctorate in music and performed all over the world. He died 10 years ago, but during his career he worked with a lot of groups including the Beatles. I started studying music when I was just 3 years old and dad taught me theory, orchestration, etc. so by the time I was in high school, I was performing at a high level. I went on to form a record label, music studio complex and a concert touring company. We signed a lot of great artists. However, you guys are the best I have ever seen for a lot of reasons. One, you bring great soul to your music. Two, you are able to cross through many genres and actually improve songs that are considered perfect. Three, your orchestration is just right and really complements your voices. Four, your musicianship is insane and many people may not realize how good you play. Five, you really are naturally talented and don't require thousands of dollars of enhancements from studio computers....like most artists today. Six, the joy on your faces tells me you really love what you do and money isn't your primary motivator. In summary, I wish you had been around 25 years ago when I was running our label. I would have begged you to join us. You are truly amazing and your rendition of this song is nothing short of incredible. Thanks for what you do.

what a beatiful version, im sure George Harrison is watching from above and giving you his blessings

[paullandgraf]

A good wholesome family making great wholesome music! How refreshing.

[RaminTork]

Julianne has the sweetest folk voice. This family is so talented.

This song ( the original version ) was the final music at my dads funeral over 2 years ago. We wanted something a little cheery to accompany a slideshow of him as we ended the service, and he loved The Beatles.

Ironically, I haven’t been able to listen to it until now; it just felt too raw.

This performance was just lovely. A real breath of fresh air and it warmed my heart. He played the bass, and he would have loved this.

Thank you for sharing, Petersens. ❤️

[Themheals]

Absolutely flawless. Gentle, slow and we are captivated immediately by her voice. Nailed. It.

[terrymoore]

0:58 1:00 Just blown away by the Petersens ! Heard them on Jan 1st for the 1st time and my life had changed. Wow, just over the top ! My Lord thank you ! The Best is yet to come !

[shaunbird]

Listening to this song after so many years. Your rendition is so beautiful. Just lovely. Thank you.

[williamrichards]

I've heard hundreds and hundreds of covers of the song since it was written. I can't speak for anybody but myself, but for me this is the most beautiful cover of the song I've ever heard without a doubt! These kids are beautiful in every way and a true blessing to anyone listening. May you all have long wonderful lives...

[johnwickham]

Well ladies loved it Julianne smashed the lead she's coming in to her own they grow up so quick great job guys

[joannecunliffe]

Breathtaking - and this is my favourite Beatles song!!! You smashed this, utterly. Julianne you have a FABULOUS voice and you have inspired me to pickup/retune my mandolin again 🥰 Your voices and harmonies are fabulous, your accents are sublime (I'm from NW UK near Manchester). How can you guys not be more famous than you are? Beats me. I'm not a Christian (I'm actually a Zen Buddhist) but your love and spirituality shines through - high karma indeed. I've listen through much of what you've done - you're all fabulous, I just want you to know that - . ❤ Jo x

Julianne's voice always excels each song by her absolute heaven-sent voice. Literally adore her voice and that's someone from Liverpool positively commenting on a Beatles cover.

[donkeninitz]

Sheesh, I've heard a zillion Beatles covers, and few rise to this level!

[kevinhartman]

It's called harmony...and you folks nail it...every...single...time. Such a beautiful cover of a classic.

[Travelingforlife]

There is a purity about them and lovely music.

[arkady]

This number gave this old Beatlefreak chills. Bloody brilliant.

[juliacloud]

Beautifully sung, Julianne! We're so glad to have you back! And what a fantastic performance from the band all around!😊👏❤

[rogerd]

My favorite singing performance by Julianne yet. Such a unique voice. If I heard her on the radio I would know it was her immediately. I think that’s a special quality that not many singers have.

[salvatoremisuraca]

OMG.! I got Goose Bumps watching this video, This is the most beautiful rendition of this song I have ever heard and i hsve heard many. George Harrison, God rest his soul, must be so proud of you guys and smiling in Heaven. I just discovered the Peterssen family about a month ago and I am hooked. Aside from the Beatles, I have never followed a musical group, but you guys brighten my day each and every day. Can't get enought of your music. Thank you mom for raising such a beautiful and talented family.
