I Can See Clearly Now
Daniel O'Donnell · Songs Of Inspiration / I Believe [2004]
I can see all the obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sun-shiny day.
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sun-shiny day.
I think I can make it now, the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is the rainbow I've been prayin' for
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sun-shiny day.
Look all around, there's nothin' but blue skies
Look straight ahead, nothin' but blue skies.
I can see clearly now, the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sun-shiny day.
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sun-shiny day.
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sun-shiny day.
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sun-shiny day.
Bright (bright), bright (bright) sun-shiny day.
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sun-shiny day.
( (bright), bright (bright) sun-shiny day...)
I Can See Clearly Now
Daniel O'Donnell's 2004 recording of 'I Can See Clearly Now' stands as a poignant addition to his discography of inspirational music. While the song is widely recognized for its association with the 1960s, O'Donnell's rendition reflects his signature style of blending traditional gospel and hymn structures with contemporary acoustic arrangements. The track appears on the album 'Songs Of Inspiration / I Believe,' a collection that highlights his commitment to themes of faith and hope. His vocal delivery remains clear and emotive, characteristic of his work throughout the late 20th and early 21st centuries. This recording serves as a testament to his ability to reinterpret classic material for modern audiences while maintaining the spiritual gravity of the original composition.
