I don't know why, but that song made me think of this song but specifically by this artist...

I can't help but think of the amazing artist:
Tim Buckley (Starsailor & Blue Afternoon albums) It was Elizabeth Fraser's (Cocteau Twins, This Mortal Coil, 4AD) cover of Tim Buckley's song that made me fall hook, line and sinker for: Song to the Siren :stillheart: *Lyrics* Long afloat on shipless oceans I did all my best to smile 'til your singing eyes and fingers Drew me loving to your isle And you sang Sail to me Sail to me Let me enfold you Here I am Here I am Waiting to hold you... Did I dream you dreamed about me? Were you hare, when I was fox? Now my foolish boat is leaning Broken lovelorn on your rocks, For you sing, 'touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow: O my heart, o my heart shies from the sorrow... I am puzzled as the newborn child I am troubled at the tide: Should I stand amid the breakers? Should I lie with death my bride? Hear me sing, 'swim to me, swim to me, let me enfold you: Here I am, here I am, waiting to hold you... |

Something about the quality of Cat Steven's voice makes me think of Ben Howard

First thing I remember when you came into my life, I said I'm gonna get that girl no matter what I do . . .

*Lyrics* We've lived in bars And danced on the tables of hotels, trains and ships that sail We swim with sharks and fly with aeroplanes in the air Send in the trumpets the marching wheelchairs open the blankets and give them some air swords and arches, bones and cement the lights and the dark of the innocent men we know your house so very well and we will wake you once we walk up all your stairs there's nothing like living in the bottle and nothing like ending it all for the world we're so glad you will come back every living lion will lay in your lap the kid has a homecoming the champion the horse who's gonna play drums, guitar or organ with a chorus as far as we've walked from both ends of the sand never have we caught a glimpse of this man we know your house so very well and we will bust down your door if you're not there We've lived in bars and danced on tables of hotels, trains and ships that sail we swim with sharks and fly with aeroplanes out of here out of here |
