[CRAZY-HORSE]

JESCA HOOP "stonechild" cd, 2019.

from Santa Rosa,Ca....
fifth studio album of six...
only one i have heard and own...
alt-folk/psychedelic-folk/experimental jazz-pop....
mostly alt folk sounds on here.
lovely melodies and harmonies but little variation...
sounding like Enya at times
I LIKE THIS ALBUM

fave:






Narrowly, I escaped inevitable utter
And total ruin, though not left unscathed
My name and face kept intact by benevolent cowardice
We wore our Sunday best encircled your chrysalis
But you slept through the crisis


You will take a breath, you'll take your very first breath
You'll take a breath, once you've inhaled water
May you have a good death, a very good death


As the dust's settling, I'm tip-toeing my way
Back to controlled environs the smug and relief
When a voice stops me in my tracks
And laughter bounds from the wreckage
We came out Easter dressed, now how could you second guess
A well-timed metamorphosis


You will learn to laugh, you'll get a belly-aching laugh
You'll learn to laugh once you've finished crying
May you have a good death, a very good death


Throw the baby out with the bath
Stones in a house of glass, lean into the cracks
And let the sky fall in



All I would die for replaced by virtual, immaculate imitation

My tryptophan teeth

And comatose lips firmly latched 'round the teat of a comfort

Whore, we waited all night long for you at rock bottom

Consoling your swan song





You will get a kiss, you'll get your very first kiss

You'll get a kiss once you've endured falling

May you have a good death, a very good death





Throw the baby out with the bath

Stones in a house of glass, lean into the cracks

Stones in a house of glass, lean into the cracks

Stones in a house of glass, lean into the cracks

Stones in a house of glass, lean into the cracks
And let the sky fall in
