forgot…my song of the year…

Had a wee cry to this song the other day.

Wow. First time I’ve seen anyone bring up Guillemots in forever. Great song and I was once obsessed with that album. This one kills me…

It’s such a beautiful album and this song is my favorite on it. Elizabeth Fraser’s vocals are so unusual, but so emotional. She’s one of a kind.

So simple but so beautiful:

You can’t go wrong with Nick Cave:

Don’t laugh. But love. If you happen to understand german. One of the most profound lyrics i ever came along.

for english speakers here a rough translation.

Only her voice gives me courage
And whether that's wrong or good
I don't care
Here and now is always appealing
I know nothing about her
But she gives color to the flowers
And suddenly the scars
On my soul no longer hurt
It always turns out differently than you think
And that she now guides my life
It doesn't matter
I'm just living for the next time
I know nothing about her
But she gives color to the flowers
And suddenly the scars
On my soul no more
Suddenly the scars
On my soul no more
Suddenly the scars
On my soul no longer hurt
I know nothing about them

I was not expecting an I Am Kloot shout out on Elektronauts! Met John Bramwell after they supported a band in Edinburgh. Very nice bloke.

Always loved this one:

There’s an abundance of Elbow tracks to pick from but my current go to is:

Just something about that one

And last one as don’t want to spam:

What a performance that is too. Incredible talent.

I have completely forgotten how good this Guillemots album is. That song has been stuck in my head for the past day. Just like when I first heard it years ago. And I’ll see your Elbow with more Elbow. Seven Veils is my favorite from Giants, here’s my favorite song on Little Fictions, which befitting this thread, is a damn fine love album. Guy has written so many great love songs.
