Nico - The falconer

The falconer is sitting on
His summersand at dawn
Unlocking flooded silvercages
And with a silverdin arise
All the lovely faces
And the lovely silvertraces erase
My empty pages

The falconer is sitting on
His summersand at dawn
Beside his singing silverwaves
And his dancing rebelrace
That compose ahead of timeless time
A sound inside my candle light

Father child
Angels of the night
Silverframe my candlelight

Father child
Angels of the night
Silverframe my candlelight

The falconer is sitting on
His summersand at dawn
Unlocking flooded silvercages
And with a silverdin arise
All the lovely faces
And the lovely silvertraces erase
My empty pages

Nico invented a style of singing that has little to do with rock music, a style that belongs to no particular place and no particular time, a style that may as well be medieval or romantic, Indian or Middle-eastern, a style that is mainly "enunciation". a style that sounds by turns like Greek chorus, Shakespearian monologue, Schubert-ian lied, Gregorian psalm, Elizabethan song, exotic chant.

Brilliant said.

Ella es como una diosa amazonica del avant garde; un ser supremo.

When she died Cale buried her with her mom. Paid for it. We know. A handful at her side. Her pain was DEEP. A lesson for what? What a fighter. She cried alot. Me too. James Young wrote an interesting bio.

I have adored Nico, since the first time that I heard her, many, many years ago, now. And I think that all who do love her, somehow perceive, everything which was contained within her soul. She "heard", indeed!
