Ακούμε ένα τραγούδι, ένεκα τίτλου “επίκαιρο”, από το σκοτεινό magnum opus της PJ Harvey, ‘Is This Desire?’, κυκλοφορία του 1998.

✻

We hear a song “timely” because of its title, from PJ Harvey’s dark magnum opus, ‘Is This Desire?’, released in 1998.

❝ Catherine De Barra, you’ve murdered my thinkin’
I gave you my heart, you left the thing stinkin’
I’d shake from your spell if it weren’t for my drinkin’
The wind bites more bitter with each light of mornin’
I envy the road, the ground you tread under
I envy the wind, your hair ridin’ over
I envy the pillow your head rests and slumbers
I envy to murderous, envy your lover
‘Til the light shines on me
I damn to hell every second you breathe
‘Til the light shines on me
I damn to hell every second you breathe
I envy the road, the ground you tread under
I envy the wind, your hair ridin’ over
I envy the pillow your head rests and slumbers
I envy to murderous, envy your lover
‘Til the light shines on me
I damn to hell every second you breathe
‘Til the light shines on me
I damn to hell every second you breathe
‘Til the light shines on me
I damn to hell every second you breathe
‘Til the light shines on me
Oh, my Catherine
For your eyes smilin’
And your mouth singin’
With time, I’d have won you
Within while, I’d have won you
For your eyes smilin’
For your mouth singin’
With time, I’d have won you
Oh, my Catherine
Within while, I’d have won you
Within while, I’d have won you ❞
