Your Song of the Day

[SU in Hershey]

A quirky, dark song/story and a period piece, too. I love lyrics that are off the beaten path, even a bit arcane, as long as they don't sound like they are trying to be too clever. For example, this song refers to "filth and foul disease," and a character becoming a "consumptive wretch." Consumption is an old-school term for tuberculosis, and as a physician I thoroughly enjoyed that little historical shout out. Enjoy!
(And, who doesn't enjoy a song with an accordion?)

In honor of Shark58.

“A Dream It’s True but I’d See it Through If I Could be Wasting Time with You”


FYI - this line from this song was the header on Shark obit, posted on the main board.

The studio version of this song is excellent, but I prefer the demo with just Sandy and her piano.

 

[obliterata]

Not many better than this one. Love how it feels like, even tho you’re listening, you’re watching a guitar be played... the drag of the fingers on the strings... just sucks you in.

And the lyrics - clearly a description of the times. Beautiful piece.

You might have just sent me through a wormhole. Thinking about some Obscured by Clouds...
