Mariée Sioux live @ Sunset Jazz Club in Paris. November 13, 2008.
She did a new song which I don't know the name of. If anyone can help me there...that would be nice :)

Update: I got it, it's "Swimming Through Stones", at least that what she said...

You can even sing along (if you can):


I have heard about this
About walking into rooms
And floating covered with snake skins
Snake skins how I wanna crawl back in
To them like sleeping bags
And tiny pits like tiny paper thin things

How I envy the herrings
Always on their way
In easy flashes
Tiny lightnings
Glinting
Like sparks when wolves
Strike flint

Well I feel like I am swimming through stone
So Ill hold my braid out of the water
As I swim my maze back to him
Cause the last thing that I need is a wet braid
During the hurricane
So Ill rest my weary head
Between the eaglets beak
So I can hear you sing
The salmon eggs to sleep
With the songs of the wild

I thought the coast was clear
I thought the coast was clear
But Im wading through dead skeeters
Through wriggling larva
Through blood suckers
And Ive never sucked blood before this
And Ive never sucked blood before this
I've never sucked blood before this

And our new pattern
I walked right in again
There is my floor all covered
With owl pellets
I examine the tiny bits
In wonder and decay
All mystified
At the little skeletal
Laurel leaves
I wonder what went on in the rabbits hole
And how these tiny things cannot seem to escape
Until we are left with snakeskin
And matted fur
Hair thin
Oh hair thin
Blows
