Willard Grant Conspiracy - The Ghost Of The Girl In The Well

From the CD Regard The End

I'm the ghost of the girl in the well
Killed by a man who owned my family
It's been many years since I fell
Still no one has found me

I was fourteen years old when I died
The earth had just turned and the field were alive
So alive

Mister called out to me and I ran
I didn't want to be under him
Anymore

I'm the ghost of the girl in the well
I was trying to hide when my fingers slipped
In the darkness I cried and I cried
All my tears
Taken by the water

I'm the ghost of the girl in the well
Killed by a man who owned my family

This song breaks my heart...

[subsamadhi]

This song is great because it's totally fucking grizzled but beautiful at the same time. I used to not really understand the whole "Appalachian" sound or whatever they called it. That is until I discovered guys like these and Bonnie Prince Billy. It's great.

Perhaps the most compelling song on one of the most compelling albums of the millennium thus far. I use it in my Reconciliation class for a lecture on the theme of lament.

One person accidentally hit the 'dislike'-button.

I cry

[squaltermann]

I cannot look at these images right now. Listening, but not looking. Too much.

[jamdantas]

Nice guitars and great music. Sad and deep.

[Speedfeuer]

Great Music *****

WGC is one of the best bands I discovered in the last years.

[smeejit]
