LYRICS:
A carnival, a flesh farewell.
Hiessens rising from the dead.
Wyman-Elvis! Calls our gurrel,
And counts the ash to where he bled:
At the first a crimson mist,
At the second sleeplessness.
At the third a broken tryst,
At the fourth, lwonesomeness.
Gawly in the sweethearts leaves.
Gawly in the soldier’s tears.
As the Riddle river grieves:
Wyman-Elvis disappears…
Only in a scrid of flesh
Hooked upon the hart’s-tongue fern,
And only by her own gooseflesh
Knows she somewhen he’ll return.

This is like the mysterious lovechild of Electric Light and Catherine.

[@diodelrio]

oh my God. I was thinking the exactly same thing. It's like she encoutered the Desire persona again, in a new space-time reality.

[@nmatte8]

Yes! This song is totally Is This Desire (her best album imo).

[@dj1900HELLHAMMER]

Seeing the Is This Desire fans chiming out makes me happy as fuck… and I fully concur with both sentiments above, this song is incredible. Salute.

[@dilltdog1158]

I understand that this album was released in what we might regard as being high summer, but it's beautifully autumnal and I think will mould admirably when the leaves and the season changes in a few months time.

[@Joy-Marie369]

I'm just now listening in the Autumn and you are correct.

[@ILikeTallMen]

The noises at the beginning (distorted piano?) remind me of the “simply having a wonderful Christmas time” song. Also, does this not sound so much like something Bjork would sing?

[@user-ng7sc4uo4w]

No real need for comments, just enjoy the journey and listen . Rob jackson Montreal.

[@Knifymoloko]

Ya got dat rite

[@ko6el]

I think being able to do exactly as you please removes the need to be acknowledged, like a first album, and this is what you get, I hope she's not as depressed as this sounds. Big fan but if earlier work

[@kakacis6784]

🫀

[@billbollins]

This one sounds like Radiohead

[@ameena2767]

This is a sex tale..

[@cg7025]

Pretentious. This album along with The Car by the arctics, are fine examples of Ego driven drivel. When the desire to prove one's intelligence overwhelms the creative process, and authenticity, illumination, wonder and awe is lost. Let England Shake was a masterpiece, pity that such beauty, genius and creativity would succumb to fake wokery pokery. Like a blank canvas with a bucket of shit thrown at it then amongst the mess signed off and scrawled upon using a banana. Musical composition 8 out of 10, Lyrically 1 out of 10, Intention 0 out of 10. It will have its fans, as all such things do....those who wish to appear "with it" "intelligent" "woke" and "on it" I double dare you to right a song about a young female athlete who has worked so hard for so long sacrificing so much to be the best in her field only to be beaten by a man pretending to be a woman. Thought not. You get the point. .........the silence is deafening.

[@grigorismath3852]

lol

[@vvvavin7267]

This comment is very pretentious.

[@mrbenn1489]

"...prove one's intelligence..." Curiously a rather telling quote from your critical broadside. Oh the irony in those words. Incidentally, perhaps she merely chooses to write about and in, a manner that concerns her and upon which she feels well placed to. Why on earth should she clamber upon a bandwagon of our messed up times? That would be oh so contrived, not to mention boring.

[@AndiLambe]

Yeah pitch this to 1995 when somebody might have cared about would-be music journalists latest opinions. This is beautiful. Trans rights are human rights and you spelled “write” wrong.

[@neroltecneops59]

Are you on pills?
