Colours Of Bruises

From more melancholic times, a very old recording to share this Saturday, from 2006 (?) with Caoimhe Hogarty on backing vocals, Iarla O'Halloran on second guitar recorded by Stephen Lynch at Radió na Life

'Of love I let loose instead of holding on to it
'cause when I did
my hands were ripped to shreds around it's neck
But I lov ethat when you go to rest
and lean toward your dreams
and I can find no reason to fight
your right
I doubt there's nothing past those eye
often there's nothing past my own
his metaphors of birds
I hate those words
when they spread to sacred mouths
But of guilt I have plenty of 
get used to holding on to it
til I'm your hypocrite
and well equipped 
with advice 
I love 
to give
25th of December and I tune to dancers
It was glorious
Some day Virginia 
Christ
I've killed my angel

Virginia

Uncomfortable Word

This Song was written by Alabaster dePlume. I was initially drawn to the it for the vulnerable place his voice seems to sit when he sings it. I found it brave. I took advantage of the song to use my high voice lengthily for the first time because I wanted to be brave too. Here is a drunken late night demo I recorded to give to Donal to learn for our Wednesday cover gigs in Whelans. Lyrics are gorgeous...'By your eyes what see you there is it my soul or else the empty heavens I don't know...' He asked that I share this and here you are.

So much fun. This is a little recording of a live semi improvised vocal peformance in Smock Alley Theatre by myself, Georgia Cusack, Margie Lewis and Petra Odlozlilikova. Aerial and vocal work in progress. Project art directed by Emily Aoibheann of Paperdolls for The Jack Burdell Festival.
