[toolsofthetrade]

Many songs.

 

[Bastet]

what is tescos and why was it bizarre?

 

[Bambi]

i was in roches stores once and they were playing nick drake :S

"hey thats no way to say goodbye" by lennie cohen is good

 

[toolsofthetrade]

what is tescos and why was it bizarre?

tescos is a supermarket, and Cohen isnt that happy a man in his songs and that

If it's acoustic sorrow you're after, check out:

Empyrium- 'Where at Night the Wood Grouse Plays'

and the Saturnus track 'For You Demons' from the 'For the Loveless Lonely Nights' mini-lp.

The Saturnus track in particular is my favourite emotional acoustic song. Heartbreaking, yet positive... it's strange.

 

[Bastet]

tescos is a supermarket, and Cohen isnt that happy a man in his songs and that

ah, i see!

it would be good for the "hanging rope" sales though!

 

[marginalé]

madrugada - majesty
