I studied Wordsworths Lucy poems in school. I dont really like poetry but the Lucy poems blew me away. To hear one of them composed to music by The Divine Comedy was a dream. I stopped dead in my tracks when i heard it by chance.Stunningly beautiful but as usual Hannon adds his own throw away or pay attention detail in the cows. Magnificent.
this is such a song.
the words are just....amazing. i've really got into poetry after this
i love the way he sums up lucy's life near the end with the music becoming more intence and compact.
so many great lines
"thine to is the last green field, that lucys eyes servyed"
"fair as a star when only one is shining in the sky"
"a voilet by a mossy stone half hidden form the eye"
"a slumber did my spirit seal, i had no human fears"
just fucking beautiful

Dante's inferno is his very heart. Where are you Divine Comedy?
