Bat For Lashes - Pearl's Dream (Joe Jack Wagner remix)

Remix by Joe Jack Wagner @ http://joejackwagner.bandcamp.com

There's a place I must go, there's a place I must go
For my heart is a child that stumbles lonely for the arms of the wild

There's a place I must go, there's a place I must go
It's not a place I have seen, but Ill get there in a blue dream

Hear the desert sigh, sing the city's lullaby
The giant iris of the wide blue sky showing me the way

Down an ocean road, past a sign that says "good love town"
Into a darkness where the stars do drown, where the starry me needs to be free

Hear the desert sigh, sing the city's lullaby
The giant iris of the wide blue sky showing me the way

And when the battle was done
I was promised my sun
But with a thousand nights gone
To any kingdom I run
And when the battle was done
I was promised my son
But with a thousand knights gone
To any kingdom I run

There's a place I must go, there's a place I must go
It's not a place I have seen, but Ill get there in a blue dream

Hear the desert sigh, sing the city's lullaby
The giant iris of the wide blue sky showing me the way

Down an ocean road, past a sign that says "good love town"
Into a darkness where the stars do drown, where the starry me needs to be free

And when the battle was done
I was promised my sun
But with a thousand nights gone
To any kingdom I run
And when the battle was done
I was promised my son
But with a thousand knights gone
To any kingdom I run
And when the battle was done
I was promised my sun
But with a thousand nights gone
To any kingdom I run
And when the battle was done
I was promised my son
But with a thousand knights gone
To any kingdom I run

pretty good...is this from the GoMix ap on myspace?

[JoeJackWagner]

@karp821 Thank you. Yes, it is.

Wow, you delivered this pretty fast! Nothing like as stripped-down as your excellent 'Sleep Alone' remix, perhaps just as well in my view, since 'Pearl's Dream' seems to demand those driving tribal beats. Only just noticed that the synth-led bridge which you've nicely transplanted (from the album version presumably) into the opening of your vid, isn't included on the soundtrack to the official video. Glad you retained most of the latter's narrative arch (such as it is) cos I love her acting!

[JoeJackWagner]

@TheReplenishingFlame I'm actually so used to this version that the original sounds weird to me.

She's beautiful. Her father is Pakistani and Pashtun.
