hahaha...
mk so i've never paid him much attention...
i have a few of his songs ... mostly from soundtracks, but i just never pursued his music.
ohh my word this weekend this vintage store I was in on Mississippi was playing his gravelly voice song after song and i absolutely love it.
he has soo many good songs and he plays such dark characters.
since then i've heard him in 3 different places around Portland and enjoyed every moment of it.
He makes me feel like i'm in some seedy Diagon Alley pub drinking a brew with evil company
...and i'm enjoying it.
This one is my favorite so far:
Poor Edward
Did you hear the news about Edward?
On the back of his head
He had another face
Was it a woman's face
Or a young girl
They said to remove it would kill him
So poor Edward was doomed
The Face could laugh and cry
It was his Devil twin
And at night she spoke to him
Of things heard only in hell
They were impossible to separate
Chained together for life
Finally the bell tolled his doom
He took a suit of rooms
And hung himself and her
From the balcony irons
Some still believe he was freed from her
But i knew her too well
I say she drove him to suicide
And took Poor Edward to Hell
On the back of his head
He had another face
Was it a woman's face
Or a young girl
They said to remove it would kill him
So poor Edward was doomed
The Face could laugh and cry
It was his Devil twin
And at night she spoke to him
Of things heard only in hell
They were impossible to separate
Chained together for life
Finally the bell tolled his doom
He took a suit of rooms
And hung himself and her
From the balcony irons
Some still believe he was freed from her
But i knew her too well
I say she drove him to suicide
And took Poor Edward to Hell
