Booth and The Bad Angel - Dance of the Bad Angels

Se há músicas belas, se há letras marcantes, se há músicas que nos fazem pensar e ir mais além, esta é uma... Convido-vos a viajarem até Algures onde apenas eu sei ao som de Booth and the Bad Angel (Tim Booth e Angelo Badalamenti). Deixo a versão ao vivo em Glastonbury (com os "The Individuals, que também tive o prazer de conhecer na Aula Magna aquando da visita do Tim Booth a essa sala tão íntima), mas recomendo que oiçam a versão de estúdio aqui e vejam um belo vídeo "home made". Tim Booth e os James estarão no Campo Pequeno em Lisboa no dia 3 de Dezembro e no Porto no dia seguinte. A não perder, pois é algo sublime....
Booth and the Bad Angel - Dance of the Bad Angels

Booth and The Bad Angel - Dance of the Bad Angels
What a journey so hard to describe
Your harbour so small

The ocean so wide
Spin the wheel, spin the wheel
Go wherever she spins
Surrender to this wave that's rolling in

Homing fingers starting to dig
Raising expectations
Lifting the lid
There's a show going down going deeper within
I long to lose myself
Inside your skin

What a feeling under the stars
My body's rotating from Venus through Mars
There's a war going on
Between my head and my heart
I wonder how they grew
So far apart

I'm so shaken, about to explode
The myth of kissing princes
Is they turn into toads
There's a war going on
Between the sun and the moon
Before they come to terms we'll be consumed

Oh my god, please take me now
I'm ready for ascension if I only knew how
Give me wings give me wings
Now I'm stuck on the ground
Recieve this blood and bones
I'm homeward bound

See the statue growing wings
This singer was a virgin
Until he conceived
God is love, God is love
And her lover I'll be
I long to leave the world in ecstacy

Dance with me around this fire
The dance of bad angels
Who'd love to fly higher
God is love, God is love
And her lover I'll be
I long to lead the world in ecstacy
