Michael Gira - The Parasite Live @ Chiesa di San Barbaziano, Bologna (IT) 2022

Michael Gira - The Parasite Live at Chiesa di San Barbaziano, Bologna (Italy), 05.11.2022
Lyrics
Breathe my breath into your head
Righteous, pure and sour with death
Here I am, just empty skin
There is no way out
There is no way in
Crucified in fractured fields of blue
All information is equally true
Feed on me
Feed on me
Feed on me now
Feed on me
Feed on me
Feed on me now
Over the plain and under the seas
Follow the lines: they all lead back to me
Tunnel the mountains and cut through the skies
Cut open your belly, look into my еyes
Come to me
Comе to me
Come to me now
Come to me
Come to me
Come to me now
You are not free
You are not free
Come to me
Come to me
Come here to me
You are not free
You are not free
You must come to me
You must come to me
You are not free
You are not free
Come to me
Come to me
Come here to me
Come to me
Feed on me
Come to me
Feed on me
I wonder what you are
I wonder where I am
I wonder if the water is swallowing the land
I wonder if an image in realer than the thing
I wonder if I’m singing what you’re thinking me to sing
I wonder if I lost you
You were pulsing in my hand
Now the continents are shifting
From the future to the past
The deeper into space
The smaller that you’ll go
The more that you consume
The less you’ll ever know
I wonder where I was
I wonder where this is
I wonder what’s inside you
Will the glass reveal your bliss?
Am I broken into pieces to be scattered in the wind?
When the revelation comes
Does it erase the host that lives
In the body of a sun
That itself exists within
An ever-shrinking sphere
That is contracting as we spin?
I wonder how we got here
I wonder if I care
I wonder if your breathing is stealing all the air
Breathing in
Breathe us in
Breathing in
Breathe us in
Read my mind
Reach inside
Read my mind
Reach inside
Breathing in
Breathe us in

That just opened the door to something totally new for me. thanks also

[@ronanjenkins2323]

His voice sounds amazing

[@dingopictures3342]

My parents didn't allow me to go there. I hope there will be another show in Italy

Tylko serca dla Giry odejmie💗🌼💗

[@alisasulce]

Saw him live yesterday and this was just beyond, thank you for uploading!

[@d_walsh]

Swans new album material. Wow. Great upload. Thanks

[@grazynajabonka]

Ukłon i duży szacunek dla tego artysty ♥️♥️

[@NarajanaJane]

Oj tak, oj tak.. Za całokształt ❤

[@zt5085]

Love his commitment to his craft

[@gavmcadam6932]

Saw Michael last night in Glasgow. Intense doesn't even begin to describe what I saw. The sound on here doesn't begin to do it justice either - no criticism, btw, cheers for uploading it - so go and see for yourself. This is from the new Swans album, according to Michael, but will be radically different from this when released. Cannae wait.

[@riccardoaffaticato5885]

I spoke to kristof hahn, before this concert. If I remember correctly the album will be released in June

[@nicknickson3650]

I listened to the new album. It's amazing. I loved Leaving Meaning but this new album blows it out of the water. It's seriously great.

[@auDipquid]

He's looking old. Hope he lives long.

[@matthewsolina4920]

He is in his 60’s and has made records for nearly 40 years. Michael is only aging physically.

[@zippymufo9765]

AIDS

[@AlissonSilva-ox4uz]

He'll be 69 this year, for some reason I really don't want this man to die

[@Poopmannn]

@@AlissonSilva-ox4uzit’s not that weird to not want someone to die lol

[@robf1557]

He'll live for 1000 years, its Michael fucking Gira

[@johnfishbone1021]

I love this guy

Devastating. Can't wait to see Swans next week

Thank you for uploading this ❤.

[@Lellos_]

Great stuff!

[@ScisaacFisaac]

I know it's probably the acoustic, but this sounds like they're going to make a wordier successor to The Seer

[@DannyG683]

9:17 is he saying 'no' to somebody in the crowd or emphatically answering the question he just sang?

[@----_-_-_-]

Looks like we're getting a long one

[@hhelminn]

Thanks for the upload. Gonna see him and Kristof next week! Do you know what else he played that night?

[@hhelminn]

@@thebigpecolaman Solid setlist! Thanks again.

[@danteflores1852]

Aw man, Two Women is one of my favorites by M Gira. I would have killed to hear it live!

[@nightgoat91]

How long was his set? And was there merch? Thanks for the video

[@ingvarrpaws]

Beautiful, sexy, ascetic, meditative. Razor-sharp art, full of pain and trauma. Mr Gira is great as always. Thank you for uploading. PS Michael usually doesn't allow to shoot videos during the show, how did you manage? :) at risk of life

Nice! Did you film any other of the new songs?

[@lasereyecat667]

@@thebigpecolaman c'ero pure io e per quanto mi riguarda ste scenate hanno rotto il cazzo tanto quanto i cellulari perennemente alzati. Che torni sul pianeta terra pure lui va, anche perchè ok gli Swans, ma da solo mi è sembrato solo tanta fuffa. Molto meglio Kristof Hahan in apertura. Opinione mia personale ovviamente.

[@growskull]

​@@thebigpecolaman did he play any other new material off camera?

[@JohnDoe-bu9tn]

Out of curiosity, were all the songs he sang like this energy level, or were some a bit more intense?

[@GeorgeTFilm]

Saw him in Canterbury, UK, last night. It's all more or less like this but I would argue seeing/hearing/feeling it in person was still quite intense for me (:

[@AlexW58]

This is pretty fuckin intense m8

[@anonymouzzz4307]

Dude doesnt know a chord other than D minor

[@memphiskash]

dont need em

[@wilhamcobly3805]

Riuscire a cantare sempre completamente fuori tonalità è certamente un talento ma dopo circa un minuto devo spegnere. Non capisco questa forma d'arte.

[@sciree]

é micheal gira, hai mai ascoltato un album degli swans? prova e magari cambierai idea

[@mrSPEEDCASKET]

Snore 💤

[@finn1504]

[@bonicastellane7287]

An old man singing and playing out of tune. Sad after all.
