Owen Pallett - The Pooka Sings

Art: Icon Aloft Arrival Of Spring by Yoshitaka Amano
Song: The Pooka Sings
Artist: Owen Pallett / Final Fantasy
Album: He Poos Clouds

Lyrics:

Oh! your eyes, your greedy eyes!
Your dry and desperate tongue
You've told a lie! a lie! a lie!
For every pretty note your reddy voice has sung
Do we believe in devils? No.
Winged men? The healing pow'r of love? No.
Enchantment? Social justice? No.
Dead child actors in a white, white world above? No.
Then why are all your songs about the things that don't exist?
Do not resist! You'll burn these lies tonight and never let them live
Oh, stoke the fire, you'll burn these words tonight
I cannot let them live

The Pooka wings away
His power o'er me's at an end
And I put down the violin
I leave it down, never again!

[CrimsonToAzure]

this is so beautiful it practically brings me to tears

(and that takes a lot)

C'est magnifique. Cette variation est douce, légère, sans pour autant délaisser le côté harmonique avec le piano. Un véritable régal. (:

@Kiddalee Oh, I'm sorry. I thought the comment editor would work properly. I guess, delete the first version of my comment if you want?

I have a request: would you mind putting the titles of Amano's paintings in the info of your videos, along with the artist name? Thank you very much.
