Over me only the sky, and with me, your voice.
“I believe that we run the world by our secret thoughts feelings & spoken words & written words & images painted… like a sort of magnetic bunch of wheels going constantly around… it is a kind of machine you know… this fluid cosmic world… a perpetual machine…”
– Charles Bukowski, from a letter to Sheri Martinelli

The Civil Wars were an incredible duo ~ great music and a worthy complement to the words of Bukowski 🙂
An…. achingly fine sound Vs the abrupt Bukowski.

What about this one?? Too easy?
Me and Patrizia send you a big SMILE.
Cheers! Better, Cin Cin! dinner nearly ready.
Way too easy…this was the song that hooked me onto the Civil Wars. They played this in a small gathering in Portland, OR and such a great recording. The words to this song can be spread across just about every relationship ~ everything one could want 🙂
Nuanced, elegant… enigmatic, slippery, compelling but for reasons that are difficult to put words to… even if they easily seem to have words expressing deep feelings.
A seductive 🙂 sound for my ears tonight.
Such a sad thing they will never sing together again!!
