Today I will talk about a song I discovered thanks to an excellent article on this blog: http://fuelfriends.blogspot.com/2005/11/jeff-buckley.html (feel free to go check it out;)).
This beautiful song by PJ Harvey is a tribute to Jeff Buckley.
I are both haunting and beautiful. This voice filled with both anger and sadness, this music .... Obsessing If I removed my
literary side a few seconds to really express what I feel, I'd say it's a song that mad me goose bumps and that haunts me to the depths of myself. When I put it, I can not stop it, I put it in a loop continuously, and even when I listen in the midst of compiling, I stop whatever I'm doing just to listen, and put in a loop until me to realize that it is already past 1am ...
Here are the words,
and if you want to listen: Memphis
're breathing in my mouth
I'll take it, I'll take it
for you You want to sing Then sing it
Through Me Something
've got left to say
Untie me, we're Taking Away
Unlikely, out if time
When you still got so much to say
Well I'll write it, a song for you
But oh what a way to go
So peaceful
You're smiling
Oh what a way to go
I'm with you
I'm singing
You said there's a special place
And it's scaring the shit out of me
In Memphis on Valentines' Day
You wrote it in a letter to me
Well I wish I had given you more time
To say thank you, my beautiful friend
But sometimes you gotta send it away
To bring it, to bring it back again
But oh what a way to go
So peaceful
You're smiling
Oh what a way to go
I'm with you
And I'm singing
You'll always have open eyes
You'll always have a special place
In Memphis on Valentines Day
Die suddenly at a wonderful age
Though were you ready, were you ready to go?
When you still got so much to say
Somehow I know you're driving slow
Receiving just everything
But oh what a way to go
So peaceful
You're smiling
Oh what a way to go
I'm know that
You're smiling
You're peaceful
You're smiling
I'll take it, I'll take it
for you You want to sing Then sing it
Through Me Something
've got left to say
Untie me, we're Taking Away
Unlikely, out if time
When you still got so much to say
Well I'll write it, a song for you
But oh what a way to go
So peaceful
You're smiling
Oh what a way to go
I'm with you
I'm singing
You said there's a special place
And it's scaring the shit out of me
In Memphis on Valentines' Day
You wrote it in a letter to me
Well I wish I had given you more time
To say thank you, my beautiful friend
But sometimes you gotta send it away
To bring it, to bring it back again
But oh what a way to go
So peaceful
You're smiling
Oh what a way to go
I'm with you
And I'm singing
You'll always have open eyes
You'll always have a special place
In Memphis on Valentines Day
Die suddenly at a wonderful age
Though were you ready, were you ready to go?
When you still got so much to say
Somehow I know you're driving slow
Receiving just everything
But oh what a way to go
So peaceful
You're smiling
Oh what a way to go
I'm know that
You're smiling
You're peaceful
You're smiling
