Apologies if I picked this up from another DUANster; it has been on heavy rotation for me this past week. I must hand it to the vocals and writing-craft of Mark Kozelek, of the band Sun Kil Moon, because his lyrics evoke a feeling of sympathy for the songs’ stalking, murdering, ex-boyfriend.
“You missed my heart, you missed my heart, You got me good, I knew you would, But you missed my heart, you missed my heart, Were his last words before he died.”
Here is the Mark Kozelek and Jimmy Lavalle version from their 2013 collaboration Perils From the Sea:
And here is the arguably more popular Phoebe Bridgers version (although not with me; high pitched voices like this hurt my ears):
So dearest DUANsters, what do you have with your hearts? Or misses (near misses)? Carry on….
Apropos of nothing. Right Said Fred
> Apropos of nothing.
LMFAO – Sexy and I Know It
But you can leave your hat on:
Listen To Her Heart – Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers
Joe Bonamassa – Miss You, Hate You
Now that’s the spirit!
Here’s song from Heart that gets no airplay (that I know of) and it really should. The album it’s from “The Road Home” is a lesser celebrated treat too.
(Up On) Cherry Blossom Road – Heart
Murderous ex lovers
David Bromberg – Delia. I prefer the slower tempo than the original by Blind Willie McTell.
I know I’ve posted this before but I’m a big Kirsty MacColl fan, may she rest in peace. And I love her version of Miss Otis Regrets, backed by The Pogues.
Sorry, but just saw this, and, uh, there is related news that is disappointing.
UK tour by Mark Kozelek cancelled following sexual assault allegations
….
and thats why i hardly ever bother finding out musicians names or much else about them
i just want to enjoy the music without knowing theres a massive douchebag attached to it (yeah looking at you ginger baker…oh wait…you’re dead..like you give a fuck now)
Sigh. Well that sounds terrible.
