The Thursday Tradition #2 ~ Part 2 of 2

This week's Song of the Week is... well... a taste of the Twins for you. And by far more interesting and almost passionate than the original version, even though it's an awesome song.

"Violaine" [BBC Session version] - The Cocteau Twins


To which I say, I don't give a damn if you can't understand what in the world Liz Fraser is saying. Her voice is that of the most beautiful--and perhaps the most dangerous and lethal--of the Mythical Sirens. And the way this song was performed... one can't sense the raw energy into this I don't know what else to tell you...

[What goes down in the Underground...]

Mondays start the new workweek. Wednesdays tend to differ, depending on if I need to work or not--usually I'm off, and usually visiting "Uncle" Joseph. Thursdays is the Daughters of the King meeting night. Fridays and Saturdays are normally hectic--never the same drama twice. Sundays = Church day. I update the blog accordingly, with a rant or two, the occasional music post, and sometimes the most random nonsuch.

So stay tuned, because things are fixing to get interesting... and, save your forks--the best is yet to come...
