Placebo - Lady of the Flowers @ Black Sessions 1997

[Mslilsis666]

when it only last for hours, you wish it would last for dayzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[TheJahness]

Lady of the Flowers est une chanson inspirée d'un roman de Jean Genet publié pour la première fois en 1944."Notre-Dame des Fleurs"...

Ce livre raconte la vie d'un assassin de 16 ans à la beauté fulgurante, et notamment sa relation avec un travesti nommé Divine et un Africain nommé Seck.

[nunuxa]

@TheJahness Merci!

[Jusplais]

jump in a bed of pusy willow. Rose, he'll prick and run. it' all good until that fungal infection.

[MrAlexandering]

[Dysphoria123]

This song is the blood that pumps through my veins.

It seemed to last for hours, It seemed to last for days...

[baxetirs]

don't you have the video of pure morning in the black sessions? it would be nice watch it. (i don't speak english, that's why i write like a idiot)

[bciceker]

Dear Brian,

Soon after we left school, you began this miracle work. I have not been dormant but I have been far away. But as I culminate into what I have always wanted I look forward to becoming and taking you into my protective embrace as can only be done from the place I imagine. You need this I know my dear heart.

As ever, all my best,

Burak Ciceker

[fuckamericanidiot]

[xcrunkxcorex]

[xcrunkxcorex]

[01narcoleptic]

[userfriendlynewmodel]

Wow. just wow. It doesn't get any better than this, the lyrics are seriously mind blowing. So, so deep and beautiful.

[Ashtrayheartromina]

[rosalbina188]

[bciceker]

@PoisonMars490

@PoisonMars490 flora was the roman goddess of spring. flora can be a time period, of literally plant bacteria. now listen to the song again.

[Jusplais]

@PoisonMars490 flora goddess of spring, slang for good times. enter flora. literally a breed of plant

[laptitedame]

How can some people consider this band as a big crap! i even heard a radio presentor saying that they were not great, how comes? Some people really don't have the same sensibility as us!

[flavorata]

She wears her tears on her blouse

confused and racked with self-doubt

she stole the keys to my house

and then she locked herself out

[TheLuisisin]

the greatness of this song seemed to last for hours , it seemed to last for days.

[PsYcHoNaUt1993]

Love the vibe.

[nora2043]

[DarkCranberryX]

She stole the keys to my house and then she locked herself OUT.

[pepsitwist27]

It never gets old...not the song, or the 90' nancy boy singing it...

They're perfectly captured this video. Love it, as always.

[SayidJarrah108]

[BARNUMCHEESE]

@SayidJarrah108 it's a flower shop very well known internationally

[BARNUMCHEESE]

@SayidJarrah108 it an international flower shop

[SlashPrincessen]

I could listen to this day after day and then die because of the feelings I'm having while listening to it.

[Joannerbananerz]

A very exceptional performance. 

[Lullaby111111]

their best song ever.

i love all their songs but lady of the flowers does really really touch my heart !

and my soul. and all i feel is harmonie and happiness.

[Lullaby111111]

his voice hurts me so much .... i cant describe what i feel when i hear him.

[CASABLANCA1424]

i am enchanted...

[hoabb]

interflora cuz i adora ya ..

[rivona]

Placebo always brings it back. I feel so lost now, and it's been like this for a long long time. What else could I do to shake the pressure and the feeling of emptiness off me? Listen to Placebo, which was my world when I was a teenager. It gave me such sense of the world. I don't get those feelings anymore, I get nothing.

[SlashPrincessen]

@rivona I wanted to get the thumbs up, but I'd feel like a... scum. The only reason was that I know these feelings.

[gloria020507]

non ci sono parole... i love this song.......

[furstnfurious]

a 5:24 orgasm...

[lalojhogez]

whats the matter of the song?

[aytnices]

Lady of the Flower, they've been dead for hours. Interflora 'cause I adore ya.

se vuelve realmente adictivo placebo.

[sanibel71]

That was way back and he is so young...but fucking good...

[Thainazugna0202]

extremamente linda...

[xXxMarilynLovexXx]

ohh young Brian Molko

so god damn adorable, it almost hurts o___O

[glompify]

love.

[Badaboomly]

whats the song about?

[SappySuperunknown10]

Well, I read an interview with Brian where he said it was about a transvestite. Which leads me to think maybe it IS based (at least partly) on Jean Genet's "Our Lady of the Flowers" like Liineea said in the comment below.

[Liiinnea]

Does anyone know if this song has anything to do with with Jean Genet's novel "Our Lady Of The Flowers"? :)

[Blew612]

amazing

[shutler87]

the deepost placebo song. so beutiful...

[Lenoreee1]

the most magic and misterious placebo's song for me

[Rishika]

5 minutes of pleasure for my ears and soul. Thank you young Molko.

[MissMurderrrXD]

and eyes of course.

[loveukraine1994]

@Rishika I guess the grown up Molko gives inspiration to change for better and make our life less miserable))))

[birdynumnumgooner]

classic

[JonaDaveSteffi]

who is the interview?????????

[DonnyNoir]

wooow the sounds 5 mintues on that he was making on the uitar were crazy, ive nv heard anyhting like that before

[DonnyNoir]

its weird listening to him speak and then hear his voice change so drastically when he starts singing

[pollograssopollo]

he uses 2 different microphones

[pedrosaraiva]

no shit, sherlock

[pannamolko]

propably my fav version of this song. so beutiful <3

[Bazytah3]

i cannot understand very well, what does he say in the beggining of the song?

[sibilantsnake]

lady of the flowers

they've been dead for hours

into flora 'cos I adore ya

[voodoochilled1]

Interflora is it not?

[ArdamoNight]

Lady of the Flower, they've been dead for hours. Interflora 'cause I adore ya.

I really don't understand what he meant with that though....it's very special, I have to admit.

[niftyrabbit27]

scuse me. . .i apologise. . .he likes your attitude....he tries it on for size. . . .he spends the afternoon. . . in between your thighs. . . .hows that from gratitude?. . . .i apologise

[matigrinberg]

does anybody know the tuning because i think the ones that appear in the tabs on the web are not quiet right?

[ROCKARING]

The tunning is : F, A#, D#, G#, C, C

This goes as well for the whole Placebo record...all you have to do is to tune a half step up the first 5 strings and you tune the highest string (the E) down to a C...it's also called the Placebo Tunning

[gifteddiva]

this is phenomenal. they are phenomenal. makes me miss Placebo mk II.

[bakkermaarten007]

mk II? =)

[gifteddiva]

@bakkermaarten007 mk II = mark two.

Its what brian calls the phase that consisted of him, stef, and steve - placebo's second lineup.

[bakkermaarten007]

@gifteddiva Ah, thanks. In that case I miss mk II too, because the first born of mk II was not good IMO =)

[ArpegeYouPretty]

Un balancement vertical cardiaquement fleuri

[MrsHolliValo]

This takes my breath away.......

[fraphee]

I absoluty love this version, brian makes every one of this songs so special.. deep into my soul ...

[PuckerUp69]

Brian & STefan are amazing!!!!

[dermisdaniel]

I miss Steve... I miss him so bad... =(

[PuckerUp69]

Since when was Steve the creative driving force in Placebo???

[placeboloverrrrz]

they were always a trio you moron.the loss of steve and his replacement from that mediocre idiot who calls himself a drummer,affected their music.didnt you buy the last cd?CANT YOU SEE THAT?

[dermisdaniel]

If you can't understand the place of Steve Hewitt in Placebo, you can't understand Placebo... Bad for you...

[lilaqueen]

so beautiful...we were all young back then..it makes me wanna cry, don't know why...

[MeninaCintilante]

Amaaaaaazing Voice its all I have to say :D

[may0217]

I agree with hbhill!!!!perfect words for a perfect song!!!

[hbhill]

It took my soul away from by body........... and my soul flies with Molko's singing...... *0*

[andowhisperodeeply]

: ]

[gypsypikis]

loving it

[vitontonio]

JUST AMAZING!!!!!!!!!

[misty666]

the most emotional song for me from placebo. and noone has as much emotion in their work as they do. that makes it the strongest song in the world for me. wow, i miss the times when their songs were so personal and intimate. their albums now are great and of a high quality, but...i dont know...they lack that special something which made them so unique. i just miss it.

[ComunaModelu]

Magnificent !

[kaiboy27]

i love this song

[HealthyHeartbeat]

I love the young Brian Molko so much, because he was so amazing specifically. And this video touches my heart. <3
