Wolverine 03:30
Turning back the years, in the north countries is told, There was a sibylline man, they began to call wolverine, The ancestors wrote: “Colder and stronger than steel”, No one knew his name, and so they used to sing: He rides with no past, with no heart, There’s no death for him, ‘cuz he’s facing his eternal pain. He can’t use his strength against his ghosts, There’s an animal howling, over those silent hills. On a dark and windy road, he rides alone, Riding on a Thunderbird, and dancing across the night, When the loud pipes break the silence in the air, You can see the shadow of the lonely wolverine. © 2018 Maurice Gene

about

Wolverine is one of the most well known songs by Maurice Gene. This is the first release of the song, which includes a Rock/Alt-Country and an Alt-Folk/Americana version, each one better than the last one.

Wolverine is a song by Maurice Gene, a tune that has mutated and evolved through the years. That’s why the single include two versions.

This one is the Rock version, cooked up in the era with the Raining Frogs Band. This one moves from the Alternative Country and barely to the British Hard Rock from the Seventies.

The song is an ode to the Wolverine (commonly known as Logan), the fictional character by Marvel Comics. The song describes the pain and suffering of this mutant who possesses animal-keen senses, enhanced physical capabilities and powerful regenerative ability, or in other words, someone who is facing an eternal pain and solitude because he can’t die, and in some point of the comic, he can’t remember where he belongs or who has loved.

LYRICS

Turning back the years, in the north countries is told,
There was a sibylline man, they began to call wolverine,
The ancestors wrote: “Colder and stronger than steel”,
No one knew his name, and so they used to sing:

He rides with no past, with no heart,
There’s no death for him, ‘cuz he’s facing his eternal pain.

He can’t use his strength against his ghosts,
There’s an animal howling, over those silent hills.

On a dark and windy road, he rides alone,
Riding on a Thunderbird, and dancing across the night,
When the loud pipes break the silence in the air,
You can see the shadow of the lonely wolverine.
