  • Simply beautiful.
    I wanted this to be my first upload on this channel because it's quite possibly my all time favourite 'song'.
    The full length version of "Earthbound [Starblind]" by David Sylvian & Robert Fripp, taken from the very limited edition 'Jean The Birdman" Part 1 C.D single. 1993.
    I was fortunate enough to buy a copy of this when it was first released for a mere 50 pence (English currency). The best bargain I have ever bought.

    Uploaded for my dear friends [Robbi] Tussin and Donna - where ever you both may be. You know who you are :)
    Peace and Love.

    When FRIPP & ENO
    Got together it was Magical.
    When SYLVIAN & FRIPP
    Join forces it's a Powerful
    Experience.
    Those records are Beautiful.

    When the world bends around, when the structures of a civilization falter, it is good to return to that which in history does not flex, but on the contrary recovers courage, gathers the separated, pacifies without bruising. It’s worth recalling that the genius of creation is also moving in an history devoted to the destruction

      @@gavinreid5387 Yep. Not sure where my head was at when I made that initial post nine years ago. The word “Earthbound” is in “Damage”’s lyrics, and somehow I conflated the two. The original version of the Damage live album had a different track listing, and I think I mistakenly recalled it being on that original version. Losing me bloody mind.

    Como un cuervo negro parado sobre un mar de conchas
    Ella está bendecida por la magia y el sonido de las campanas de la libertad.
    Y levantaré el toque de queda y me sentaré junto a su puerta.
    Ella ha pasado por este mundo antes.
    Afuera en los campos nevados, huellas de coyotes
    Ella grita su nombre con las palabras que me faltan.
    Y gira la cabeza y aúlla a la luna.
    Ella me dejará pronto
    Ella me está dando preguntas y miradas inquisitivas.
    Ella rompe mis papeles y quema todos mis libros.
    No le dieron nada que no supiera ya.
    ella se está preparando para partir
    Abajo en el sótano entre sus cosas abrí sus cajas y encontré sus anillos
    le ofrecieron dinero
    ella dijo "No están a la venta"
    Ella guarda bien sus secretos.
    Alguien la vio en la playa.
    Siguió sus pasos pero terminaron en el mar.
    Aún así, cuando se enteró, fue y armó un infierno.
    Ella guarda bien sus secretos.
    Cada rostro es un espejo que refleja el suyo.
    Derrocha cariño y rara vez vuelve sola a casa.
    Pero no pediría nada si ella me dijera que ya pasó.
    Ella también guarda sus secretos.
    Como un cuervo negro parado sobre un mar de conchas
    Ella está bendecida por la magia y el sonido de las campanas de la libertad.
    Y levantaré el toque de queda y me sentaré junto a su puerta
    Ella ha pasado por este mundo antes.
