Tema: The Dog
Banda: The Damned
Álbum: Strawberries
Año: 1982


She wanders alone through the night
A child with eyes burning bright
She extends her arms for an embrace a tiny smile
Her ruby lips on her doll- like face

The danger's a mystery here
As she invites you to hold her near
Her mirrored image could not be linked to
A woman's mind so sharp and so distinct

Like a swimmer in a secret sea
Undecayed for all eternity
Claudia
Better stay away from Claudia

The silkiness of her lips
As she bends low to kiss
A tiny seductress in ringlets and pearls you reel
In madness as the whole world about you whirls

Like the tinkle of a small silver bell
Her voice will put you under her spell
A crushed crysanthemum in her hand a beautiful doll of death
She'll take your dying breath

Like a swimmer in a secret sea
Undecayed for all eternity
Claudia
Better stay away from Claudia
Like a swimmer in a secret sea
Undecayed for all eternity
Claudia
Better stay away from Claudia

Very nice!...but the other people commenting here don't know what they're talking about. This album came out in 1983, 7 years after the novel 'Interview With the Vampire' was published. The song is based on the character created in 1976. Some of the lyrics like "A crushed chrysanthemum in her hand" are direct references to the book.  Chrysanthemums mean death to Claudia, and she covers Lestat's body with them after she 'kills' him.

I know that, I own the novel, which I really liked, but my favorite has to be The Vampire Lestat; there might be some people who don't know there is a novel though.

I know the song came out first, but I like the film and I thought it would look nice, better than just having a still picture.

@livingdeadpunk138

d'you what? this is a stroke of genius on your part, combining the two like this..... a very good job.

i can, however, not listen to this song anymore without thinking of kirsten!!!!!

@sledgehammer1972

Thanks for the compliment.

I, too, can no longer listen to this song without thinking about the movie or Kirsten. I think that's fine since I love the movie.

i know about this character very well....how she attempted to kill lestat....about her head replacement....and how she came back as a ghost and attempted to kill louis....and thats about it....

[Bamafiend2010]

So...any input on why it's called "the dog?"

[imkultra]

my favorite damned album ,great video,well done

[doggirl1123]

Its funny how everything I find of Claudia is about her not being able to grow old.None ever speek of her addiction to blood.Well besides the song in the play I Want More.

About time this was uploaded.

This song was years ahead of the film.

Nice one.
