Dora Mae's Funeral

I just love the song playing in the background in this scene from Carnivàle. The song is called "Dora Mae's Funeral" and is also on the soundtrack.

I thought the scene where Samson goes back into Babylon and sees Dora Mae in the window was the creepiest thing ever... it was tragic and terrible, but effing creepy nonetheless.

From Australia:

How the HBO executives could screw this one up is beyond me. Idiots.

This is one of the best US shows ever produced. It oozes quality, craftsmanship, style and above all else - atmosphere. Incredible show by HBO, and an incredible blunder by their overpaid and ignorant executives... RIP Carnivale.

This is a beautiful song. And it was a beautiful series. Decades from now I'll still remember it.

@MrsKewlkruse That scene still haunts me to this day. A innocent girl condemed to a eterna fate worse then hell.

I just started watching this. I can't believe it was cut, well I sort of can. It took to long to get to a point sometimes. It was a good idea though and I think they need to take it back and rewrite it. I've always thought kindly of the past. But this scene gave me nightmares for a few days lol. Good show though. One of the best from HBO.

@Greyhacksaw It's between that, the scene where the mask guy makes a mask out of Ben, when Ben heals Jonesy, or the fight in the cornfield. This was great as well, the first truly epic scene of the series.

What genre of music would you call this? I love it too. The music is inspiring and helps me think; it helps me remember things.

and by david milch I meant david lynch - lol

milch would have been cool if he hadn't bailed on deadwood. lynch is obviously smart he just chooses to be a dick and get the adoration of emperor's new cloths type critics.

[mawhar]

awesome damned post and yeah, twin peaks might have been interesting but overall there was no plot and it was slow and surreal with no other reason than david milch's "be patient enough and I'll mess with your head, dude." Carnivale was fucking going somewhere profound, beautiful, INTELLIGIBLE, and meaningful. HBO bastards.

thank you. I love this. And i love the show. Not to mention the soundtrack. My favorite song from the show however is the one sang by the conjoined twins at the end of an episode. I can not remember which one at the moment but if you have any link or hint, don't hesitate. Thanks
