This was me and my first girlfriends song at age 17 we always said this was our connection whatever happens in the future, still think of her when I hear it 37 yrs later
Always and forever, thank you to Great Britain and the British people whose creativity, since the 1960s, has given the rest of the World hundreds of unique bands such as the Bauhaus and music of unparalleled beauty, quirkiness and atmosphere. What would our lives have been without British bands? Thank you from Sicily.
Hey, I might be 48 but the music I dug when I was young is still as cool as it ever was. I have a 14 year old son who listens to Nirvana with his buddies and gets as turned on by their sound as I do. I was in Hong Kong when Kurt Cobain shot himself, and was impressed by a T-shirt I saw shortly afterwards, in Camden in London, picturing Cobain with a shotgun in his mouth, saying 'Good shooting, son'!
She had nut painted arms
That were hers to keep
And in her fear
She sought cracked pleasures
The passion of lovers is for death said she
Licked her lips
And turned to feather
And as I watched from underneath
I came aware of all that she keep
The little foxes so safe and sound
They were not dead
They'd gone to ground
The passion of lovers is for death said she
The passion of lovers is for death
She breaks her heart
Just a little too much
And her jokes attract the lucky bad type
As she dips and wails
And slips her banshee smile
She gets the better of the bigger to the letter
The passion of lovers is for death said she
It feels weird to listen to them again after 40 years. It was great music, it was different, it was stirring. BUT, it was dark and for all my love for it, today I can call it out for what it was. For countless impressionable and often unstable teenagers it was poison. I dont think music by itself leads people, no matter how immature they are, to do bad things to themselves and others, but it sure as hell can be the background for disastrous paths. I remember the fun, the sex, the dancing, but I also remember the dope, the depression, the joblessness, the disorientation that many of us paid dearly with many lost years and some even with their lives. The jury is still out, but for me, it was a sweet poison...
