Another brilliant cover of a Leonard Cohen song Janie! 🔥👍

Fantastic cover of a wonderful song...would love to hear a version on ‘Last Year’s Man’ 😁

Heard this song by accident on youtube and fell in love with it.. Thought of giving it a shot.. bass :) 

Here go the lyrics:

Close your eyes and lose the feeling that's been sinking
Close your eyes and count to three
Close your eyes rewind, I know just what you're thinking
Close your eyes and think of me 

Larger than life, niceties
Bigger than you, more than me
I've got the Monday morning blues
And oh my God I've got the home for you

And give the everyday morning you...use
There's things right here I can't afford to choose

Close your eyes and lose the feeling that's been sinking
Close your eyes and count to three
Close your eyes rewind, I know just what you're thinking
Close your eyes and think of me 

Sincere, caramel, champagne, down drain, tell him, no gain
And so damn physical it will sustain
And too damn Technicolor to refrain
And much too taxing for my little brain
Why do we never know enough of happy ends?
Why do they never show?
All the times that we have been so good at caring
How many times we'll never know

Close your eyes and lose the feeling that's been sinking
Close your eyes and count to three
Close your eyes rewind, I know what you’ve been thinking
Close your eyes and think of me 

Close your eyes and lose the feeling that's been sinking
Close your eyes and count to three
Close your eyes rewind, I know just what you're thinking
Close your eyes and think of me 

Packed it like a punch, out to lunch
I got a little hunch, that stood out from the bunch
As if that's not enough, I even knew the reason why

That God damn bitch of life, she made me cry
So I’d like to poke her squarely in the eye
And it hurt so much I feel like I could die
Yeah..

*Lyrics*
With the last breath of our angels
We take final steps.
And I lay him down
On those killing fields
Where nameless kneel.

If I could. 
If I could
I'd fuck it up.
If I could.
If I could
I'd be enough.
If I could.

Did her last kiss cut you deep enough,
With so little lust.
Did your tears fall like
Your unborn child's.
With her perfect eyes.

If I could.
If I could 
I'd break your heart.
If I could.
If I could.

Good women lie down with losers everyday.
I'll take him to the killing fields lay him down nameless. Deserving.
I swear I saw my child in her eyes.
I swear I've seen his tears in boys eyes.
In boys eyes.

Le vieil homme et le banc (version longue)

Over Distances Unknown (DEMO)

I wrote a song on a broken guitar
and I played it for them
they told me it was out of touch
but I thought I had my finger on the pulse
of the nation's youth, of a girl like you,
of a few home truths I thought you already knew

I wrote a song on a broken guitar
in the house with the broken A.C.
and it was pouring out of me
and I know you're gonna think it's all about you
cause you don't care about the truth
I know you only ever wanna feel good

as the party dwindled, I heard Broken Social Scene
on a hi-fi stereo

she slipped from my hands and fell to the floor
couldn't stand for me to touch her anymore
my baby broke her back trying to get away
the broken record tried to play

it was an RCA, I had a lot to say
but I couldn't get it out
so I was dry-heavin'
I was barely breathin'
in the wet death of a summer day

I wrote a song on a broken guitar
and it was gonna be an instant classic
only the kids, they'd never catch it
you know they only ever wanna feel good

as the party dwindled, I heard Broken Social Scene
on a hi-fi stereo
and it was an RCA, it was an RCA
and I had a lot to say
but I couldn't get it all out
so I was dry-heavin'
I was barely breathin'
in the wet death of a Summer day
(and all on a broken guitar!)

and they told me it was out of touch
I thought I had my finger on the pulse

Broken Guitar

Its been over a year since Leonard passed away and I wanted to pay tribute by singing one of my favourite songs.

Lyrics.

Well I stepped into an avalanche,
it covered up my soul;
when I am not this hunchback that you see,
I sleep beneath the golden hills
You who wish to conquer pain,
you must learn, learn to serve me well.
You strike my side by accident
as you go down for your gold
The crippled here that you clothe and feed
is neither starved nor cold
He does not ask for your company,
not at the center, the centre of the world.
When I am on a pedestal,
you did not raise me there.
Your laws do not compel me
to kneel grotesque and bare
I myself am the pedestal
for this ugly hump at which you stare
You who wish to conquer pain,
you must learn what makes me kind
the crumbs of love that you offer me,
they're the crumbs I've left behind.
Your pain is no credential here,
it's just the shadow, shadow of my wound
I have begun to long for you,
I who have no greed
I have begun to ask for you,
I who have no need
You say you've gone away from me,
but I can feel you when you breathe

New Zealand based artist Graveyard Love creates a sound that exists somewhere between an 80s getaway car scene and the desolate mood of factories at dusk on the outskirts of the city. Nevertheless, Graveyard Love is somehow a transcendental experience – a blurry distortion between new wave, alternative and dance. 

Dance Dark at the Dead Disco is the second single to be released from Graveyard Love's debut EP, Dissociate. Listen/buy here: monkeyrecords.bandcamp.com/album/dissociate
