current 93 - a gothic love song

[BrokenDoll169]

folks who don't get it, I imagine, never had a slutty drama queen goth girlfriend, just read it from this angle - there will be no line questions for you left.

[chrisisization]

no video, yet occult

[GoldenGateChapel]

This is music only the certain folks can understand. Not for everybody, but we like it that way.

[2PlayDead]

So bad

[funkoxen]

thats flys round the odure, not orchard lol...

[MrDracula1994]

:(

[maldoror97]

I hope you all see, this is not a love song. I wish a long live to David Tibet and for him to pass the biggest cup of his wisdom on to his listeners.

[GolliwoggMusic]

Golliwogg APPROVES of this song.

[karmineka]

Yes this is a poetic song of wannabees gothic people believing in theyre useless darkness...

[MissFrost666]

Not all goths are the same. He represents the traditional way of this kind of music, art in philosophy for me. And I love this song, his ideas and opinions. To be gothic is more a lifestyle today. Small children with black-green hair pieces who claim to be soooo evil. That's not was gothic is all about... and therefore, I jst love this song!

[Serpentarius666]

KILL HIM!

[zamoiG]

@Serpentarius666 Why?

[pantaloondescendo]

Wonderful song. It's a damn shame so little people realize it's tongue-in-cheek eh.

[HighestBrotherhood]

This is who Fever Ray wishes she could be.

[SkeeterNYC]

It sounds like some of the stuff Marianne Faithfull has been doing the last few years. Probs comes from her haning out with PJ Harvey and Nick Cave. What happy people, huh? Whatever, it's still a great track.

[RATCHRIST]

great song....... but my favorite is: "the bloodbells chime"

[MrDracula1994]

LOVE IT...

[Sevrior]

Beautiful. Definitely among the saddest songs.

[Kolamecp]

This is so great...

[childrings]

6 people did not realize the gothic twilight actually existed just in your head

...hit and a miss...

[markoctavio]

@childrings droool... you are funny as a dead horse

[anarchist3]

@childrings swing and a miss swing and a miss, half baked youtube comments will not be tolerated on such sacred music inspired by the mythos of howard phillips lovecraft

[corporaldog1]

GAH. Ode to National Mug a Goth Day

[childrings]

lol goths

[anabun]

Hahaha! Preach on.

[niek771]

[knives564]

[ilexsine]

Thanks!

[eatingthesea]

sigh...reminds me of a long time ago.

[TeamSwizzerland]

[heremerawr1]

WTF is this???

[planetboom]

uuuuh, who the fuck is this beavis? and what the hell is this crap?

[DManiek]

idiot!

[Zynorawable]

soooooo schön *seufz*

[leru75]

Beautiful poetry. Thank you.

[metramil]

me da pena esta canicon es triste pero mola

[verigar]

[crazycoral]

en nog is dit een mooi nummer!!

[AcidMadeMeFly]

Haha, this song cracks me up.

[gothixangeli]

btw any guys want to cam chat with a goth girl tonight

[mimosa80000]

So biautifull !

[GothicAngelinza]

i feel lonely anyone want to chat with a goth girl

[Nekrofobia666]

one of the most beautiful texts that I have ever read, indeed fantastic

[bananimalistic]

Tibet is actually a racist. or at least was. fun facts.

[Humanophage]

I hope he is. The more intellectuals openly support racialism, the brighter the future.

[facundorox]

Most of the world is racist, and the future still doesn't look so bright.

[KolsbjornJosef]

Rice Boyd, who was a memmer og Current 93 (and is an neo-nazi) claims that David also is, but realy he isen't.

I have mailed with him about this.

[wrongeye7]

If you don't mind me asking, what did he say about it? I've been trying to find more information about this issue. I like a lot of Tibet's music, but I'm concerned about his views (such as his interest in fascist Francis Yockey's Imperium). I have no idea if fascist/racist philosophy is an influence in his BELIEFS or merely a THEME in his art. Is the band comfortable with its audience's persistent uncertainty about these connections? I would refuse to listen to C93 if these rumors are true.

[LTimo]

:))))))

Hey babe! How are ya?

[shatteredcl0ud]

Sure, where you live?

haha...

I live in Florida.

[SiaMcKatsky]

I have loved this one for years! It´s brilliant.

[usblryuzaki]

melancólico

[tilallaby]

the difference is in art !! mainstream music is shit and art helps forget it !!!!

[knives564]

@tilallaby your wrong because music is art no matter what you think all music is not only to entertain its audience but to express thier feelings and such and if you think mainstream is so bad then why dont you go out and make music liek this and be known by underground music listeners or become mainstream but with a gothic type of music like this or what ever this is called and if you try to say that i think this is bad music your wrong because i actualy like this

[Satyros2os]

@tilallaby Well Said...

[Bonbein]

Adorable

[gabbath]

contrary to what all the lyrics out there say, i think the line is 'like flies round the ordure', as in filth, trash, which makes more sense (flies hovering around the trash... that had covered your soul)

great imagery, superb song

[gabbath]

actually it's a bit more than trash, but i'd rather leave it at that :))

[YouIdiotTubeRules]

Flies dwell where they do. It works the way David says it.

[Jokz3r]

like it.

who knows where i can get sheet?

[apneaticherry]

this song is in the "soft black stars" album.

A masterpiece,you should def get it.

[thepennymachine]

This song and others by them like it are the side of current 93 that completely contrasts the side of them that collaborates with nurse with wound. Both sides of the spectrum are breathtaking for me. Everything from this to "dogs blood rising".

[SofiaMaiden]

JCMac777:

You don't know what art is!I feel sorry for you...

[Zheft]

What's the big difference between music/songs and poems recited to music?

[JCMac777]

melody

[gravebat]

best poetry i have ever heard

[apneaticherry]

yeah...I thought david wrote the lyrics but actually m. cashmore did

[alfie0x7]

Please entertain my ego by singing these great lyrics. :D

[KurritaSpain]

Que cancion mas bonita!!!

[metallikenz]

this is one of my favorite songs from current 93. the lyrics are so beautiful and true and their music is haunting<3

[aeckstrand003]

I'm new to this band... great great lyrics but i wish i could hear him sing the words... then again maybe I'm missing the point of this band?

[pipedude23]

jst feel it...

[aeckstrand003]

I understand now... this song kills me it's so pure.

[Bonbein]

This was beautifully!

[yosoyluis15]

That doesn't change the fact that eh music is beautieful... And if one need to forget a Goth.. well....

[RozzFuckedValor]

You do realize he's telling goths to fuck off right?

[aeckstrand003]

Well... more so they're living within a plastic vile of self image... aka they're living a lie by conformity... but yes basically he's saying i fucking hated this bitch lol

[markoctavio]

@RozzFuckedValor Dude, you really dont know what are you talking about... go back to your teletubies...

[panjawel2]

@markoctavio

Actually, RozzFuckedValor was right. This song is ridiculing fakeness of gothic subculture, it's quite obvious. Apparently you failed to understand the lyrics - which is ironic, considering you offended someone who did. Happily, you don't have to be a genius to appreciate C93's superb music, but it's a pity you will never comprehend the lyrics.

[markoctavio]

@panjawel2 Its a heartbroken lovesong, "your nails painted black, or bloodred .." means, that she was so mean with him, she hurt him so badly, "Your letters came daily In French or in German, buut they meant to me nothing", she tryes to continue making contact with him, while he is trying to foerget her..."With your lies

And your makeup,you were nothing, thinking you're something" she is a liar and fake for him... but still unless she hurt him so badly, he still love her, (con)

[markoctavio]

@panjawel2 (con) and he is in a deep pain, because she betrayed him, and he would never trust her again, he dont want to suffer that pain again. Thats why this song is so sad. He is a very sensitive man.

[panjawel2]

@markoctavio

So you understand, then why were you saying to RozzFuckedValor he doesn't know what he's talking about? Sure, saying this song is "telling goths to fuck off" is huge simplification, but it's true and worth noticing, because many people (mainly goths) don't see it.

Yeah, I know this is poetry, dude. Never said it isn't.

[markoctavio]

@panjawel2 This man, is a true artist, beyond "goth" labels and stuff, "telling goths to fuck off", is just too shallow and have no sense.... at all. This song is truly an artwork, and like some paintings, may have a shallow meaning for others, but a more deeper feelings and messages from the creator. So, it kind of bother me when someone dont understand, and say something stupid just because doesnt understand...

[markoctavio]

@markoctavio mmm... my english its rusty...

[panjawel2]

@markoctavio

It makes perfect sense - if you ever met a goth who's too serious about his/her subculture, you'd find out how shallow and fake he/she is (happily, not all goths are like that). I don't know why you refuse to understand that.

[markoctavio]

@panjawel2 Its poetry dude...

[AtmaGyan]

@RozzFuckedValor not necessarily. it appears he's talking about a specific person who pretended to be someone without knowing why she'd like to be that person.

[TheHouseoftheVoid]

@RozzFuckedValor

It's kind of ironic when you consider how many goths listen to this shit (amazing music.)

[yosoyluis15]

[JeskolaRome]

[Ruskerara]

I love this song... Came over it by a mistake... Simply, lovely.

[depoetiser]

This song haunts my soul...

[depoetiser]

And let in the badness

You claimed

As your friend

With un-angels hovering

Like flies round the orchard

That had covered your soul

Their empire increasing

And your country

Deserted by yourself...

[depoetiser]

So you opened your books

And you opened your legs

And so opened your heart...

[rau3rhust3n]

that is such a great song. i love it

[Azargled]
