Cat Power - "He War"

[@hectoralfonsotovar9568]

This is the first song I heard from her. Twenty-four years have passed, and I’m still listening to it (along with other songs and albums like The Greatest). Thank you, Chan. Always in love

[@EverAppl14]

This song is still so incredible. Even after two decades, once in a while the very beginning notes pop into my mind and I have to stop what I’m doing and listen to it again - and every time I realize I forgot just how gorgeously balanced and timeless it is.

What a strange video. Full of art. Love it. And I love her. Awsome...

[@hp67c]

To me... this video is about losing someone (to drugs, to religion, to whatever) and even if they are right there physically, there's nothing you can do to keep them from disappearing completely. Reminds me of the books Scanner Darkly and Norwegian Wood and many others.

you should ask questions to yourself before posing them publicly in my opinion. The music industry is horrible. Media and mind control is the thing. Do yo think this sort of music or message is what they want to promote?

I saw her @ Brooklyn Steel a year or two ago & it was one of the best shows I've ever been to--& that's coming from a 37 year-old Long Island guy w/ an eclectic taste in music who's seen some amazing shows over the past twenty three years.

[@xx-ug9hn]

czechpirc I saw her in 2014 and her voice sounded great, and he guitar and piano playing sound great. The only probably was she didn't know which lyrics were for which songs, or which music went with which lyrics. Or she'd get the lyrics and the words right for a song, then get bored of it after 30 seconds and stop playing
