Still the most beautiful sound in any language for centuries to come- Some have passed out listening to this-I hear primeval voices hearing it...it changes ones life for good or forever...Marianne-Hapsburg Baronesses daughter
@DreamLordGarsha The lyrics and music of this song were written by Eric Woolfson, who later went on to form The Alan Parsons Project. Sadly he passed away recently. R.I.P.
thanks i love marianne faithfull. saw her so many times. met her right before she sang at the ritz in nyc during her broken english comeback performance. she sang because the night, for patti. still have all her albums on vinyl. a good actress too. LOVE YOU MARIANNE never stop always look forward to the next album but broken english reamins my favorite. thanks for this vid. love her early stuff too.
"Broken English" is indeed awesome. i saw her twice in the early 90s, once so close she actually smiled at us when someone shouted out "Lucy Jordan!"
this particular cut, as you may be able to tell, is from realitively old vinyl. (sounds almost mono-ish, infact lol) ...i have other early stuff by her in better shape, but i thought this song might flow well with these images. this is the second vid of what will be a trilogy.
you are very welcome. i love vinyl scratches. i have all her old stuff. way prefer analog sound anyway. in the process of getting a new turntable. i play records all the time. love them. i met marianne outside the ritz in nyc during that historical performance. got her autograph and she was swigging a heiniken. true to form at that time!! i even have her version of van morrisons sister george. still have that autograph in one of her albums.
forgot to tell you that when i saw her at the Paradise in boston, she left her whiskey glass right in front of me. she picked it up and handed it to me. ofcourse i slugged it all down. she smiled!! oooooh what a memory.
afterwards i stayed and drank all night hoping she would show up at the bar but she didnt. she left sigh that was after i mether at the ritz. that ritz performance was her first in the usa in over ten orso years. bowie was in the audience. wish he had come out and played too.
yes the cover pic is fantastic! her lips are soo chapped, & the wet hair looks soo cool. her recent work w/billy corgan (on "Kissin' Time") was also brilliant.
I used to be crazy about MF . . . I suppose I still am . . .

60' s MF songs give off impression of elizabethan ambience.
I think she would embody a great Ophelie from Hamlet in a movie...
