I've been waiting for boredom to do this and now is the time
DRY
Dress - One of the first songs I feel in love with. It's so easy to like and I love the lyrics.
Sheila-Na-Gig - Oh My God! She got me with the first words "I've been trying to show you over and over".. I'm a sucker for lyrics and this song is, to me, one of her strongest lyrics on the album. I mean, for a girl to write these kind of things at that point where rockmusic was for guys only is just amazing to me.
Fountain - I adore this song
Water - Love her deep voice, especially in the Peel sessions!
Plants & Rags - One of my favourite PJ lyrics "ease myself into a bodybag"
RID OF ME
Rid Of Me - One of the first songs that got me into PJ. My favourite version of this song is when she plays solo during the Stories tour. Talk about girlpower! Lick My Legs is legendary.
Missed - Her voice! You can hear the emotions throughout the song, wonderful!
Legs - Beautiful. A very diferent lovesong compared to other lovesongs.
Man-Size - Lovely, the video is great! And when she plays it during the White Chalk tour and backs away from the mic while she sings "silence my lady head"!
Me-Jane - One of my favourite songs! Took me a while to understand why the song was called Me-Jane.. Omg, I felt totally retarded.
Ecstasy - No words can describe how good I think this song is.
4-TRACK DEMOS
Rub 'til It Bleeds - The demo version of this song is the best IMO, I love the rawness of it and her small "hah, and you believed me".
M-Bike - One of the songs I like playing when I drive. Gives me that kick-ass feeling of invincibility
TO BRING YOU MY LOVE
To Bring You My Love - Solo during White Chalk tour.. Amazing! Love the loud and dark guitar. And my heart just breaks when she sings the "I know he's gonna be here" with that voice.
Meet Ze Monsta - The screams are awesome
C'mon Billy - My heart breaks whenever I listen to this song after I saw the video. One of the best videos I've seen, it's so sad.
Teclo - "Let me ride on his grace for a while" <3
Long Snake Moan - Rock! One of the songs my dad likes
The Dancer - It took me a while to listen to this song, don't know why because it became one of my faves instantly. The lyrics are beautiful.
DANCE HALL AT LOUISE POINT
Civil War Correspondent - Live at Stockholm Water Festival where you can hear the drums clearly when she sings the last lines.. Amazing!
Taut - The way she sings "Jesus save me" the first two times always makes me sing along with a big smile.
IS THIS DESIRE?
Angelene - One of my first loves.
My Beautiful Leah - The live version where she throws the drumstick over her head. This song is amazing, love the "NOOOO".
A Perfect Day Elise - Also one of my first loves!
Is This Desire? - I love this song so much. "I feel like a king"
STORIES FROM THE CITY, STORIES FROM THE SEA
Good Fortune - One of the songs that always puts me in a good mood. The video always makes me smile.
The Whores Hustle And The Hustlers Whore - Just the part where she sings "speak to me of heroin and speed".
This Mess We're In - When she speaks.
Horses In My Dreams - One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
UH HUH HER
Who The Fuck? - I love the video. It gives me that "who the hell are you, go fuck yourself" if I'm pissed.
The Slow Drug - It feels like I'm floating when I listen to this song, amazing.
The Desperate Kingdom Of Love -Live during White Chalk tour <3
WHITE CHALK
Grow Grow Grow - I don't like the album version as much as the live versions. Her voice is so powerful when she sings the "grows"
White Chalk - I love this song. She always gets me with the last lines "scratch my palms, there's blood on my hands"
Silence - Just lovely, absolutely lovely.
A WOMAN A MAN WALKED BY
Black Hearted Love - I just love this.
Sixteen, Fifteen, Fourteen - This song is so weird and I like it!
April - My favourite version of this song is from a radio show where you can really hear her angel-like voice during the "I dreamed" part.
LET ENGLAND SHAKE
Let England Shake - I just love this.
The Last Living Rose - The first song I heard from the new album and the sax part has been stuck in my head since. It gives such a happy feeling, especially when the sun shines!
All & Everyone - When she sings "Death to all and everyone" always gets me.
England - I love it
Bitter Branches - I love the tempo of this song.
Written On The Forehead - "Blood and Fire" is stuck in my head
The Colour Of The Earth - The first song that really popped out from the album for me.
Wow, this was so hard! I had to bite my tounge not to write down every song from each album because I love them all!
