Let Your Dim Light Shine Let Your Dim Light Shine Let Your Dim Light Shine is the seventh album from the band Soul Asylum, released in 1995. Critically, it suffered in comparison to its predecessor, "Grave Dancers Union", the band's breakout release. It includes the hit "Misery," which was parodied by "Weird Al" Yankovic as "Syndicated Inc." on his album "Bad Hair Day". This was the first Soul Asylum album with drummer Sterling Campbell. He provided half of the drums on "Grave Dancers Union". The album's title comes from a lyric of the song "Promises Broken." Actress Trini Alvarado provided backing vocals on three songs.
The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine (Anymore) Alfie Boe and G4 have both released classical versions. The song also features prominently in the 1991 bittersweet romance film "Truly, Madly, Deeply", starring Alan Rickman and Juliet Stevenson, with Nina (Stevenson) playing the main chords in the chorus on the piano and Jamie (Rickman) playing the main riff on the bass strings of his cello, and both of them singing. The singing of the song is a game the couple often played. The choice of this song in particular, given the events in the film, emphasize the poignancy of the lyric especially well.
