Nighty Night for a Newcomer


First of all, let me thank my dear friend Moka for letting me get started in this prominent blog!

So this is to be my initial post, and with this I begin my new life as a blogger. Some of the staff may know me as DeadFishy, I made 2 guess posts a while ago :D, so “Hi!”.

Now… let us ‘cut to the chase’… songs for Nighttime, songs that help me sleep when my insomnia ruthlessly attacks me.
Enjoy.

Vashti Bunyan - here before

Alpha - Firefly
Mr.Projectile & 1010 - A1 Wild Orchids
Kathryn Williams - In a Broken Dream
New Roman Empire - Injured Ninja
Beck - Everybody’s Gotta Learn Sometime

Image is a LotusOverWater selfportrait… I guess you can call it a selfportrait… oh hell, I took the picture ok?!

    you know the Beck song is a cover of the original Army of Lovers song.

    I prefer the AOL version myself.

    I loved the Beck song. Thanks! I believe The Korgis did this in 1980. Someone correct me if I’m wrong here.

    Any way you could repost the Vashti Bunyan song? I just discovered your blog and I must say it’s very nice.

  21. userfriendly says:

    Hello.
    I have recently heard the “New Roman Empire - Injured Ninja” you had posted here.. And fell in love with this tune.

    OMG.. I cannot find anything about it on the Internet…

    Can you please please please advise where I can get the album, or at least find more detail…

The song makes its imprint
in the air, making itself felt,
a felt world. Here, there,
the stunned silence

of knowing I will not remember
what I heard;

futures that will never happen,
a fluidity we cannot achieve
except as a child
creating possibility.

This is the untranslatable song
hidden in the earth.
