Honor Joe Cocker’s Passing With His Emotional “Into The Mystic” Rendition

Honor Joe Cocker’s Passing With His Emotional “Into The Mystic” Rendition | Society Of Rock Videos

Drenched in Soulful Sweat

In 1996, beloved Joe Cocker graced the Baden audience with a magical Van Morrison classic “Into The Mystic.” Telling the story of a man at sea missing his woman, “Into The Mystic” takes away to sea with beautiful vibrations, vocals and a sweet melody that carries on thoroughly throughout the song.

Honestly, we love Van Morrison as one of the greatest lyricists and voices in classic rock, however, Joe Cocker does this song a stunning justice with perfect vocals and more soul than we have ever felt before.

Interesting Fact: The original title of the song was “Into the Misty.”

As he sweats his pain away, we cannot help but miss Joe more than ever as the goose bumps on our arms multiply listening to this absolutely breathtaking cover. After just one year of losing you, we will never be the same. Rest in peace Joe…

+ Into The Mystic Lyrics +

We were borne before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won
As we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic
And when that foghorn blows
I will be coming home
And when the foghorn blows
I want to hear it
I don’t have to fear it and I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And magnificently we will flow into the mystic
When that fog horn blows
You know I will be coming home
And when that fog horn whistle blows
I got to hear it
I don’t have to fear it and I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will flow into the mystic
Come on, girl
Too late to stop now
