John Grant - Queen Of Denmark

[cromwellian13]

Sinead's cover of this song needs to be recorded and preserved for it's ability to reach where it was supposed to be.

[khandey20008]

boring and gloomy song.

[diggetybop]

Brilliant. 

[TheLukehaines]

there will be a reprise by Sinéad O'Connor next february

[bradshawvincent]

john grant and rufus wainwright should sing together! if you love this i recommend rufus's albums.

[MissZizia]

this seriously pulled some strings inside of me. for the first time in many many years..... wow John you really are something...

[Sam07micro]

Its a great song.

[robinbrum]

Is "pissing in coffee" a metaphor?

[bradshawvincent]

brilliant.... reminds me so much of rufus wainwright.

[markillingworth1972]

is this a real song or is someone taking the piss?

[gomachols]

[bitcheata]

UGLY!

[sjoelund1]

Anyone who knows, what the point with "Queen of Denmark" is??

[daniellelucia]

@sjoelund1 It's supposed to be about "liberal" left watching the conservative right watching them .. and letting them know that we so don't care what they think ... and at the same time sending a mollified threat of retaliation for injustices.

[1sspiser]

@sjoelund1 Because "queen" is like another word of being gay. And John Grant is gay. Many people were bullying him, and he wrote this song. I dont know why its like "of Denmark" but the point is the gay-thing.

[sjoelund1]

@1sspiser

Ja, det var Danmarks tingen jeg fiskede efter at få at vide

:P

[sjoelund1]

@1sspiser

Sorry, troede du var dansk :D Jeg ville bare vide, hvorfor han havde skrevet om Danmark - men ved godt at han er homo :)

@Instab What's "Portal 2"?

[TheBearrish]

@Instab What's that?

[TheBearrish]

@Instab What's that?

[Quilon111]

Really like this. Initially I heard Keane then in Where dreams go to dies heard Nike Cave but the lyrics are the key and I am thinking modern-day Tom Leherer?

[slippergirl1]

Sinead O'Connor will cover this terrific song on her new cd.It's perfect for her.Great songwriter.

[dolitsa]

[MarcusMyAlias]

I love it when people transcribe their diaries into song. It's usually the only stuff that lasts forever.

[Parasympathomimetika]
