Steven Wilson - The Raven That Refused To Sing

As previously announced the forthcoming vinyl compilation LP “Transience" will feature a new recording of Lazarus, originally recorded by Porcupine Tree for the “Deadwing" album in 2004.  

To mark the release of this new version you can listen to my original demo of the song.  This was actually the first of two demos I made of Lazarus, and it features a very different middle 8, subsequently rewritten for the second demo and final album recording.  

Lazarus was one of several songs that were based on a film script that I was working on at the time with my friend Mike Bennion, and the David mentioned in the song is a central character in that script. 

Lazarus (first demo) performed by SW at No Man’s Land, December 2003.

Porcupine Tree - Anesthetize

When I first heard 'Perfect Life' from Steven Wilson's excellent new record 'Hand. Cannot. Erase.', I immediately wanted to weave in the 'Scarlet Carson' speech by Valerie Page from James McTeigue's 2006 film, 'V For Vendetta'.
So, here it is, a little rough and ready - but, I think the vocal and music work pretty well together.

Time flies - Porcupine Tree (Cover by Rocksferry)

Paroles & musique : Steven Wilson.

As the cheerless towns pass my window
I can see a washed out moon through the fog
And then a voice inside my head, breaks the analogue
And says

"Follow me down to the valley below You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul"

I survived against the will of my twisted folk
But in the deafness of my world the silence broke
And said

"Follow me down to the valley below You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul"

"My David don't you worry
This cold world is not for you
So rest your head upon me
I have strength to carry you"

(Ghosts of the twenties rising Golden summers just holding you)

"Follow me down to the valley below You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul
Come to us, Lazarus
It's time for you to go"

Lazarus (Porcupine Tree cover)
