THE SCREAMING TREES (UK) Tangiers (1988)

 
 
Quite a while ago I posted their album "A Fracture In Time" but this song didn't appear on it. So I'm offering it to you now:
 
01 Tangiers
02 Tangiers (MbAatsNsLIliNnEe)
 
After they failed to become famous with the released material they changed their name into SUCCESS but didn't even come close to what the name promised.

THE HEART THROBS ...Made In Heaven

 
 
I once posted several HEART THROBS' albums and EPs but the album posts have all been deleted by some DMCA mofos.

NICK CAVE Into My Arms (1997)

 
 
I feel very emotional today and I simply have to post this wonderful, wonderful song which is probably one of the best songs ever written.
It's originally from the 1997 released "The Boatman's Call" and now on my personal "Best Of NICK CAVE".
Enjoy!



"Into My Arms"
I don't believe in an interventionist God
But I know, darling, that you do
But if I did I would kneel down and ask Him
Not to intervene when it came to you
Not to touch a hair on your head
To leave you as you are
And if He felt He had to direct you
Then direct you into my arms

Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms

And I don't believe in the existence of angels
But looking at you I wonder if that's true
But if I did I would summon them together
And ask them to watch over you
To each burn a candle for you
To make bright and clear your path
And to walk, like Christ, in grace and love
And guide you into my arms

Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms

But I believe in Love
And I know that you do too
And I believe in some kind of path
That we can walk down, me and you
So keep your candles burning
And make her journey bright and pure
That she'll keep returning
Always and evermore

Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms

There are some gems really.

03 I Know It's Over - The Trash Can Sinatras
04 Never Had No One Ever - Billy Bragg

07 The Boy with a Thorn in His Side - Bis
08 Vicar in a Tutu - Therapy?
09 There Is a Light That Never Goes Out - The Divine Comedy
10 Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others - Supergrass
 
but then again, to be honest, nothing can catch up with the original.
 A doomed endavour...

There Is a Light That Never Goes Out - The Divine Comedy
