i think i like laura marling's cover of avalanche even more than nick cave's

I was tagged by @armandaniels, thank you!!

Rules: Tag 9 people you want to get to know better.

last song: so I have been rewatching Black Sails lately. Since I was too lazy to find the cable for my external hard drive, which has the files less the end credits, I watched it on a streaming site—which is where I found out that Nick Cave had covered Avalanche for s2e9???

It's not the last song I listened to, but it's a fun little piece of information I didn't have before. The last song I listened to was by a friend of mine.

last show: last finished show was a rewatch of The Terror around the time my dad died. I don't know why I thought that would offer some catharsis. Regardless, a fevered 2-day bereavement leave rewatch did at least generate a fun little AU plan.

currently watching: Succession, obviously, plus a Black Sails rewatch. I think I might pick Picard back up because I've heard S3 is good (though, given the bar set by previous seasons, this may not mean much). Film-wise I am continuing apace this year. Now that my local indie cinema has closed down, I pirate almost everything, but found that a BFIPlayer subscription has really helped expose me to some films I didn't know about before. I'd recommend it! I have a letterboxd but my reviews are hardly scintillating so I'm not even going to link it.

exhibit A

currently reading: I am honestly very proud of how my reading is going this year! I'm reading Elena Ferrante's My Brilliant Friend and just finished Symposium by Muriel Spark.

I'm also reading a bunch of short stories thanks to that one tumblr post that's going round. Some of them are just garbage, but the great thing about short stories is when they're bad you invested maybe 20 minutes max, but when they're good you think about them all day, same as you would a novel. Of the ones I've read so far (I currently have them open in about 80 tabs), I enjoyed The Yellow Wallpaper, by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, and How Spoilers Bleed, by Clive Barker (who also wrote Candyman and Duel!).

pictured: foolishness

current obsession: yeah, it's Succession. What gave it away? Also bryophytes and fungi but that's a personal problem.

uhhh I am tagging @silverchain @swankpalanquin @watchfuldeer @eastgaysian @squiddoodlebug @peachpulpeuse @parasprite @gothcrafts and @s0ftpining, and of course anyone else who would like to be tagged!

#i always feel very awkward tagging people in these things so i tend just to avoid them #BUT! #i am having a rollercoaster of a week so #haarping on

[feeshies]

ahhh 20, 23, and 30 for the music asks?

20: A song that has many meanings to you

Titties & Beer by Frank Zappa

Probably Avalanche by Leonard Cohen

Obviously this is my favorite version, but it's one of the few Leonard Cohen songs that I can stand listening to covers of. Nick Cave has two versions of this song and it's remarkable how even just with the same singer the song can take on so many different moods and interpretations without sacrificing its power. It can be sorrowful, desperate, angry, soothing, bitter, peaceful, and everything in between.

23: A song that you think everybody should listen to

Everyone should listen to the new Algiers album in general, but I need to highlight the song Bite Back

billy woods is in it too.

30: A song that reminds you of yourself

Definitely Fire by the Crazy World of Arthur Brown

It's less self-reflective and more aspirational to me

From Her To Eternity 01 Avalanche/Lavína (Nick Cave)

Avalanche

I stepped into an avalanche It covered up my soul When I am not this hunchback that you see I sleep beneath the golden hill You, who wish to conquer pain You, must learn, learn to serve me well

You strike my side by accident As you go down to your goal This cripple here that you clothe and feed Is neither starved nor cold He does not ask for your company Not at the centre, the centre of the world

And I am on a pedestal You did not raise me there Your laws do not compel me now To kneel grotesque and bare I, myself, am the pedestal For this ugly hump at which you stare

You who wish to conquer pain You must learn what makes me kind The crumbs of love that you offer me Are the crumbs I’ve left behind Your pain is no credential here It’s just a shadow of my wound

I have begun to ask for you I, who have no greed I have begun to long for you I, who have no need You say you’ve gone away from me But I can feel you when you breathe

Do not dress in those rags for me I know you are not poor And do not love me quite so fiercely now When you know that you are not sure It is your turn, my beloved one It is your flesh that I wear

Lavína

Vstúpil som do lavíny Zakryla mi moju dušu  Keď ja nie som tento hrbáč, ktorého vidíš Čo spí pod horou zo zlata Ty, ktorá si želáš konečne dobiť bolesť Musíš sa naučiť, naučiť sa dobre mi poslúžiť

Náhodou si udrel moju stranu Ako si išiel dole do cieľa Tu tento kripeľ, ktorého kŕmiš a obliekaš/šatíš Nie je ani vyhladnutý ani chladný/uzimený/mu nie je zima Nepýta si Tvoju spoločnosť Nie v centre, centre sveta

Som na pedestáli No ty si ma tam nevyzdvihla Tvoje zákony ma už nepokúšajú/nenútia viac Kľačať groteskný a nahý Ja, sám, som pedestál/stupienok Tomuto škaredému hrbu, na ktorý čumíš

Chceš dobiť bolesť Musíš sa naučiť, čo ma robí milým/súcitným Omrvinky lásky, ktoré mi ponúkaš Sú omrvinkami, ktoré som nechal za sebou Tvoja bolesť tu nie je poverená byť Je len tieňom môjho zranenia/mojej rany

Začal som sa pýtať po tebe Ja, ktorý nemám chtíč/nie som chamtivý Začal som po tebe túžiť Ja, ktorý nemám potrebu/y Ty vravíš, že si odo mňa odišla ďaleko No ja predsa cítim na sebe tvoj dych /teba ako dýchaš

Pre mňa sa neobliekaj do tých handier Viem že nie si chudobná/máš dosť peňazí Nemiluj ma takto násilne/nasilu Keď vieš že si nie si istá Si na rade, moja milovaná Je to tvoje telo/mäso, ktoré mám na sebe/ktoré nosím/mám oblečené

Tagged by @fieryphrazes to post a collage of my top 25 artists. (It won’t let me add the fucking link lol)

I did medium term artists because music I was listening to on workout playlists in 2015 should not be factored in. Except that bumps Erykah and the smiths down from my top 5 which is tragic and relieving respectively, cuts out the Fugees and Peter Paul and Mary, but includes a bunch of stuff that’s important for posterity reasons ✨

also the radiohead is literally only that high because I had a really insane depressed day in April where I listened to Present Tense off moon shaped pool literally for like seven hours in a row while staring at my wall. Felt good

I knowwwww it’s a cop out but tagging literally anyone else who wants to, you can say I tagged you!!!!! I’d love to see it

(below the cut is just me listing out the artists lol)

Pink, Sufjan, Nick Cave, L*na, radiohead 🙄

VU, S&G, king crimson, FJM, sm*ths

Bon Iver, alt j (?), PJ, Connan Mockasin, Leonard

LOU, …..fleet foxes…..????,Fleetwood Mac (two fleets in a row lol? I think), Erykah, Led Zeppelin

Einstürzende Neubauten, avalanches (?), OutKast, of Montreal, a tribe called quest

#loveislovevinylchallenge Day 14: I’ll Cover You: a cover song. Nick Cave has covered Avalanche, one of my favorite Leonard Cohen songs, twice—once on his first solo album, in an unhinged and croaky version, and once in 2015 for the show Black Sails (collected in B-Sides & Rarities II), in a much more straightforward piano ballad manner. I’ve read Nick talking about how the song blew his young mind when his older brother brought this record home; that a song could have such dark power lurking just underneath the surface. With all respect and love to Nick, who has to be one of my top 3 all time favorite artists, neither version can touch the original (and I bet he’d agree with me on that).
