  • Golliwogg APPROVES of this song.

  • Thank you so much for posting! Jarboe is achingly talented - something that she has developed for decades along with friends, lovers, old enemies new fans - and given all I've learned about her over the years, she seems to have traveled enough path to last an average mortal several lifetimes. May she 'last' for many more...

  • Yes, the vocals that it must

  • A lovely song. Deeply sad. I'm sad that you have such a following. Your Porlie x

  • goddam i forgot about this song....... moving

  • Dead Can Dance, Cocteau Twins and Jarobe=Heaven!

    I don't even drink, but; some wine a dimly lit living room; this song, some snacks...the sound of rain and thunder outside....ahhhh!

    :)

  • Thanks for uploading this! Been looking for it!! Love this. Memories.......

  • ONE OF THE GREATEST RECORDINGS OF ALL TIME .........THIS SONG IS AUTHENTIC/BRILLIANT/CALM/INTEN­SE/AMAZING...SHE HAS THE VOICE OF AN ANGEL...ALWAYS.......I LOVE HER MUSIC/TALENT/SKILL/HER

  • THERE WAS A VIDEO OF THIS???? Peace.

  • Yeah, Jarboe was really perturbed, that Gira ended Swans. I remember her saying that she didn't even know that it was the Final Tour at first when they started it or words to that effect. I can't remember her exact quote.

  • I would really like to see Swans or Jarboe in concert someday. I would also like to have a Swans Symbols T-shirt, but it seems as though it's pretty difficult to find one anymore.

  • @Herbalaussie well, Gira, has another SWANS going now, with longtime member guitarist, Norman Westberg back in the fold. Have you heard about that? Check out the site on myspace.

  • @swans1997 Yes, I did! I was disappointed to discover that Jarboe won't be in the line-up this time, though. Her latest solo album, "Mahakali" was great, in my opinion.

  • I had this and Girl Come Out on vinyl...not sure where they are...but I miss it so much!

  • thats a dude!

  • I've wanted to see this for years, thanks for posting!

  • Thank You for posting this. My ex-girlfriend snaked this record from me. My favorite album probably ever! I bought it for $7 in 1990. I hear it's worth a lot now. If I had it, I would never sell it.

  • @copetill you can get it in the Children of God/World of Skin 2 CD set. I'm pretty sure Gira won't stop reissuing it.

  • I'll live forever.

    I'll never be filled,

    I'll never imagine I can change what I killed.

    I destroy what I love,

    I drain what is filled.

    Sounds alot like vampirism

  • @babypianocries kinda always thought so too - plus immortality or a very long time

  • Comment removed

  • @babypianocries When I saw her sing it live, Jarboe explained that they'd written this song for "interview with a vampire." So yeah, it's definitely about vampires!

  • what is this song about, biblicalLY,mythoLogicaLLY,magi­ckaLLY?

  • I lost my World of Skin CD somewhere along my worldly travels. GRRR...

  • gracias por postear este video. cientos de veces he escuchado esta cancion y primera vez que veo el video.excelente. Jarboe es irrepetible.

  • I wore this album out! How great to hear one of my favorites again. Thanks!

  • incredible...the first World of Skin has been one of my all time favorite albums for 20 years. Thank you for posting this, it was truly thrilling.

  • breathtaking.

  • There are no words to describe how happy I am right now - I'd always hoped this would turn up somewhere, this and the video for New Mind appearing on channel 4's The Tube totally changed my life

  • i recall, years ago, drunken nights. alone. this record playing on ten. a tear in my eye. candles and incense. alone. a drink in my hand.......

  • Really beautiful,maybe my favorite Swans-related song.

  • Thanks for posting this.

  • thanks

  • Where do you get all these amazing videos??? THANK YOU!

  • THANK YOU.
