Golden Lady

Time Poem

"Weißt du was ich manchmal denke?
Es müsste immer Musik da sein, bei allem was du machst.
Und wenn’s so richtig scheiße ist dann ist wenigstens noch die Musik da.
Und an der Stelle wo’s am allerschönsten ist, da müsste die Platte springen und du hörst immer nur diesen einen Moment."

"You know what I think sometimes?
There should always be music, in everything you do.
And when it really sucks, then at least there is still the music.
And at the point where it's the most beautiful, the record should skip and you would always hear only this one moment."

Christmas In Bed 2021

Talula (2014 recording)


Goodbye, the Armpit of the Year,
Go further than you see,
And take this "story of more woe"
A long long way from me. 

You herd cold winds and clouds so pale
And cloak the sun with these.
You frighten men and make them frail;
Bring women to their knees.

And not to mention how you spread 
Affliction and diseases!
The coughs, the shakes, 
The runny nose, the fever and the sneezes...

No longer will the spiteful rain
Drain clouds day and night; 
No longer will this stubborn pain 
Be tearing me inside.

I'm greeting Spring with all my heart! 
I hail Thee, God of Light! 
As well as God of Barbecues
And God of Camping Site! 

But when next time you head back here 
To catch us all off guard, 
Let's hope 'The End of Festive Cheer' 
Won't hit us quite this hard.
