"Here Comes the Night"
As with "so sweet" in "Aren't You Glad," the repetition involved in the alliterative "so strong" in "Here Comes the Night" ("It's never ever felt so strong") lends some sense of degree.

"Here Comes the Night"
I found a couple things to write about in these lines from "Here Comes the Night":
Every morning my love is reborn, and it lives me with all day long
When things start to change, it takes a little rearranging, but our love goes on and on
"Every" is sung with three syllables, giving a sense of number.
"Long" and the second "on" are sung with melismas (I think both are C C A G), and these give a musical sense of duration or continuation.

"Here Comes the Night"
Last week, I learned the organ part for "Here Comes the Night" (it's only three notes and two chords). I learned the bass part last August, and since I now have two parts, I thought it worth it to make a recording (although there's quite a bit of unaccompanied bass and the bottom register of the organ part simply doubles what the bass is playing [just with a different rhythm], so I'm not sure this is very interesting to listen to). While I was recording this, I also discovered that the piano part at the beginning is the same as one section of the organ part, so I included that too. I think I have the right notes for the bass riff, but something about it still sounds off to me, so I think I might have the wrong articulation.
