Most disturbing "woman scorned" song ever: "Hex" by Neko Case...
Edited on Fri Jun-30-06 10:55 AM by Richardo
Subtle, psychological vengance :scared: And what a voice. :loveya:


Hex

When you hear me calling your name in the night
Do you run to your window thinking a coyote might
Be howling

When you hear me knocking at your door again
Do you tell yourself it's only the wind
That's blowing

When you watch the sun sink down in the west
Do you tell yourself that the heart in your chest
Is still beating

Will you know or must I tell you
This is my lover's spell you have fallen into
My dear
My voice is all you'll hear

Only the sound of my heart pounding, darling
You took my heart
Cast it aside
Laughed when I cried
Like it was just no big deal
And here all alone in the dark
I know just how you feel

When you feel my fingers touch your skin again
Do you tell yourself there's just no use
In crying

When the stars in the sky begin to fade
Do you tell yourself,
Don't be afraid it's just the night
That's dying

Will you know or must I tell you
This is my lover's spell you have fallen into, my dear
My voice is all you'll hear
Only the sound of my heart pounding, darling

1. I love her
She's playing here this weekend, but we're probably not going to be able to make it, unfortunately. She's great live, though, if you do get a chance. :hi:

2. "Hex" is a live recording and is amazing...
...I'd love to see a concert some day.

3. I don't think I've heard that song.
Which album is it on?
