Who shot him in the back, peacetime
Who took him by surprise, tippy toes
You can't bury that door 3 times, hide my eyes 4 times

I'm gonna sink my teeth into Kansas, Kansas, Kansas, Kansas
Kansas, Kansas, Kansas, Kansas

I reach a higher plain when I speak so slow and hardly breath
They're gonna run out of shapes when they fetch my family
I, I must confess I'm gonna see that man again
I'm gonna turn back the clock and set the foot in Kansas

I'm gonna Kansas, Kansas, Kansas, Kansas
Kansas, Kansas, Kansas, Kansas

I'm gonna shoot him by the clock, peace time
I'm gonna shoot him in the legs, peace time
You're gonna bury that door, meantime
You're gonna pick him off the floor, 3 times

I, I, I'm a man and I, I, I'm alive
I I must confess I'm gonna carry that man
I'm gonna shake him by the hand
I'm gonna sleep in foreign lands

I'm gonna turn back the clock
I'm gonna Kansas in the spring
I'm gonna Kansas, Kansas, Kansas, Kansas
Kansas, Kansas, Kansas, Kansas

This Mortal Coil - “Kangaroo”

#music #ThisMortalCoil #4AD

For Emma, Forever Ago is the debut studio album by American indie folk band Bon Iver. It was first self-released in July 2007, and later saw wide release on the Jagjaguwar label in February 2008. The album is principally the work of singer-songwriter Justin Vernon. While living in Raleigh, North Carolina, Vernon fell ill with mononucleosis and a liver infection, and grew frustrated with his songwriting and life. He left Raleigh and drove to his father's remote hunting cabin an hour northwest of his hometown, Eau Claire, Wisconsin, hoping to be alone.

The album was recorded at the cabin between late 2006 to early 2007. Vernon abandoned his old songwriting methods and instead focused on wordless melodies that he later set to words, which he felt evoked a more subconscious meaning... - Wikipedia

Actor is the second studio album by musician St. Vincent, released by 4AD on May 4, 2009, in the United Kingdom and a day later in the United States. The artist was influenced by scores to films by Disney and Woody Allen. To prevent writer's block, she watched films without the sound and composed music for her favorite scenes

The A.V. Club's review called the album a departure from St. Vincent's debut, noting an absence of "the coy, conventional pop winks of Marry Me; even Actor's lovelier moments come tinged with down-the-rabbit-hole danger." Clark has "found her own voice—and it's one you wouldn't want reading your kids any bedtime stories." - Wikipedia

”Victorialand” by #CocteauTwins

Might be their most minimalistic and #ambient record? Well the band was basically a duo at this point in their career. Anyway, absolutely glorious stuff. The sax playing by Richard Thomas on ”Lazy Calm” is sublime.
