I am never the first to know
Following the stream up North
Where do people like us float
There is room in my lap
For bruises, asses, handclaps
I will never disappear
For forever, I'll be here
Whispering
Morning, keep the streets empty for me
Morning, keep the streets empty for me
I'm laying down, eating snow
My fur is hot, my tongue is cold
On a bed of spider web
I think of how to change myself
A lot of hope in a one man tent
There's no room for innocence
Take me home before the storm
Velvet mites will keep us warm
Whispering
Morning, keep the streets empty for me
Uncover our heads and reveal our souls
We were hungry before we were born
I feel the same. This is a great album (CD)…. Recording.
Now that we have the 'play favourites' stream on the website player, all my years of rating songs have become worthwhile.
However, this option now highlights the significant difference between a 6 (not a 'favourite') and a 7 (will be played as part of the 'favourites' stream).
When listening to the main stream, I know have to decide 'do I want to hear this song more?', if the answer is yes, then it's a 7.
I had previously rated this is a 6, but on reflection, I want to hear it more - so 7 it is!
A key point and I think similarly. At the risk of requesting for "perfection" of William et al. Ideally there would be an option to add a song to "My Favorites," or not. There are songs that are 7 or 8 overall for me but I don't want to hear more - in my Favorites list. ...like I said that is an over the top "request" and not anticipated!
This is very cool, thanks Justin, but I'm afraid my co-worker's going to find me collapsed on my keyboard!
Ah yes, I hear a bit of ABBA in this tune too.
🤣

I hear the Swedish Chef on Helium...

When it comes to women songwriting and singing, it's all about the looks, amirite?
Hello? I said, "Amirite" Anybody? I know you're there. Amirite?!?
I guess I'm not right to demand females, artists, or, hell, people in general, meet certain visual requirements while they're doing their jobs*. And neither are you, maboleth.
*Models, maybe, but even that's hard to defend, imo...
I had to look to see what people were talking about, and I think it's more about her deliberately unsettling/terrifying aesthetic, not how good looking she is or isn't.
I had no idea she leaned so hard into the weird/grotesque. It's kinda great. And yeah... wouldn't want to look at some of it while eating.
STOP!
Tell that to Donald Trump.

In life you don't get rewarded for stupidity, you get penalised ... sometimes it's the death penalty.
The good news is that it's Species Improvement
Me and a dear friend used this song for an aerial silks act back in 2020.
Sounds like Royskopp, maybe the scandinavian way of signing it is. Nice song
This singer, Karin Dreijer, has worked with Röyksopp. She provided the vocals on the track "What Else Is There?".
Nice segue from The Immigrant's Song to Fever Ray. From 10th century Vikings bent on plunder and the sword to modern day Scandinavians interested in electro pop and selling "some-assembly required" furniture.
same segue - still working :-)

Dude was giving a fair warning tho. The imagery that went along with her followup album can be (quite fairly IMO) described as grotesque or gory. That was her intent. Bit of a middle finger to the folks who wanted her to be a pretty girl singer, I think.
Ugh - I just checked her images... it's not just the voice. Omg, I shouldn't have seen that.
She speaks very highly of you - I believe the sentence contained the words Misogynist and Dic&.
Coronavirus 's song
Except for the folks that refuse to believe...
Has a 4AD kind of sound to it.

It's the anthem.
Nice try, but google her images... though don't look if you're having a meal.

But why do I feel like I have heard this before ?
Is this her original?
"On that note"
Hearing allot of Peter Gabriel influence here!
+2 to 6 for me, partly due to the aptness of this tune. Long Live RP and Long Live all humanity!!
+2 to 8 now after covid-shut-in-binge watching Vikings. I really like the show and the tune is perfect for it LLRP!!
Bought the album. Love it!!
That's because it is the same vocalist -- Karin Dreijer. Also in The Knife.
Especially: keep the streets empty for me!
…or the government…

Awww...I think someone has a secret crush on her

No it's on the web player and Android too :-)
Web player: Switch the channel (at the top) from 'RP Main Mix' to 'My Favourites'
Android: Select the 'note' icon at the bottom and change channel there.
I also recently realised that you can change the level of what you consider a favourite in the Android settings - 7 works well for me.

True, twist our bodies through 180 degrees AND change sex. If there are too many males then change to female and vice versa. Wouldn't that be cool?
"Ok, you change first."
"No, you."
"No, I was male before you were even born. You change."
"No, I'm young and have way too much hormones. You change."
"Will anyone please think of the children, for ONCE?"
Feist - Caught A Long Wind
Sivert Hoyem - Blown Away
Fever Ray - Keep The Streets Empty For Me
Divinely inspired playlists like this is why I love RP!
The cover is way cool; love a good woodcut.
One of the best comments I've ever seen!
Back in the day, when we were still fish, we could do this anytime.

It is grand Lazarus! Thanks for the well wishes.
Hope you are sailing.
Prayers for Turkey.
Only on RP......
Everybody in my mushrooming mulititude of galactic presidential campaigns loves this groovy song... we be dancing like naked rum runners... we love sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll... we believe Radio Paradise is the best radio station in the nearest 430,000 galaxies... hope life is grand for you right this minute, westslope...
Well, 50% of The Knife; from Wikipedia: "Fever Ray is the debut solo album by Fever Ray, an alias of Karin Dreijer Andersson of Swedish electronic music duo The Knife."
Now that looks like something a professional dancer would appreciate.

HOW???!!!!
I know, right? Should be way higher!
The percussion panning from left to right is pretty cool. And the drone sound is definitely one of my weaknesses
...must be the years of "abusing" psychedelics.
HOW???!!!!
"HOW" ... does everyone not agree with you? I can't imagine.
I agree with Proclivities.
Crumb is the cross-hatch king; the Fever Ray illustration uses a different style/method.
CRUMB THE GENIUS!!!
Mr. Crumb's reaction is the same as mine to your comment. Meh!
Be like 2 fried eggs.....keep your sunnyside up!
Boober
though I doubt that would be his reaction.
Charles Burns (this music is awesome! and Anders does fantastic art)

To me, other than the work being in black and white, it looks very little like any works by R. Crumb. For one thing, it appears to be mimicking the look of a woodcut or scratchboard, not a work of fine-line pen and ink as Crumb has predominantly done, also, the use of solid black is much more dense than in Crumb's work, which is generally all done with cross-hatching. It does bear more of a resemblance to works by Charles Burns, but his style has developed largely from the illustrators, cartoonists, and comic book artists who preceded him, so his is arguably not an altogether "new" style (not that anyone's is). After all, black and white illustration has been done for over 1,000 years. Anyhow, that illustrator's name is Martin Ander - nice work.

It looks like someone copied the artwork of one Mr. Robert Crumb.

Try to figure that out after you've learned the difference between 'then' and 'than.'
Agreed
NOT IN THE LEAST
Absolutely annoying..
Thinking exactly the same thing. Am I too old for this?
Yes, Cyndi Lauper with improved enunciation.
BillG is on a roll!
10.
Ditto. Hope she puts out another Fever Ray effort soon.
