I don't get why people are annoyed. They took one look at the lyrics, realised the despair in which one must be. Stripped of resonan beauty, chord changes like forced breathing.. This song is Despair, and this version nails it.
AND ALSO THE TREES Lady D'arbanville Lyrics My Lady D'Arbanville Why do you sleep so still? I'll wake you tomorrow And you will be my fill Yes you will be my fill My Lady D'Arbanville Why does it grieve me so? But your heart seems so silent Why do you breathe so low? Why do you breathe so low? My Lady D'Arbanville Why do you sleep so still? I'll wake you tomorrow And you will be my fill Yes you will be my fill My Lady D'Arbanville You look so cold tonight Your lips feel like winter Your skin has turned to white Your skin has turned to white My Lady D'Arbanville Why do you sleep so still? I'll wake you tomorrow And you will be my fill Yes you will be my fill My Lady D'Arbanville Why do you greet me so? But your heart seems so silent Why do you breathe so low? Why do you breathe so low? I loved you my Lady Though in your grave you lie I'll always be with you This rose will never die This rose will never die I loved you my Lady Though in your grave you lie I'll always be with you This rose will never die This rose will never die
Great song, and it is always about atmosphere with AATT, my all time favourite band. But still there are 7-8 songs from the album that are better. I wish I can travel to Inkberrow, Worcestershire where they started.
Not saying I dislike it...but I don't think this song works when 'reinterpreted' when covering it. Some songs just need to be played with the same cadence and verve of the original recording or they sound somehow wrong. There aren't many songs like that but this is definitely one. Cat's original has a bounce from the baseline and a very, very distinctive time signature that makes the song feel flat if it doesn't have it.
you should hear the 'dairy demo' of it - they did perform it that way with solid bass playing and drum, why they abandoned it for the release baffles me as the demo blows the released version out of the water...had it on cassette ages ago and played it to death
It's just that it corresponds to another type of sensitiveness than yours, that's all. You don't get the spirit, but that's not a problem, to each his own. And also the trees is a phenomenal post-punk/gothic band, they are a legend and composed many masterpieces by themselves. Their version of this song is great, and they play it even better live, goosebumps every time.
Aha I see 2 reactions from Germans who love the original more than this. Well nuff said, bringing us Kraftwerk and DAF and Rammstein, we will forgive them. Cat stevens version sucked and sometimes a cover puts it right on top. This is one of the covers that''s better , than the original, I think.
uaaarrgh - ist das schrecklich! Wenn ich eine Playlist mit den schlimmsten und überflüssigsten Coverversionen machen sollte, hätte die hier einen Spitzenplatz!
I loved this song when I was a teen.
I love this song, this is my favorite version
Lo amo profundamente 🖤🌹🥀

I'm going directly back in my past, love it
Great melancholic ballad! I recently opened this band for myself and can't stop listen it.
Great name, great music!Really shocking and really outstanding. No words for them, just feelings. I really love them... This band rules...
i am listening to that album in vinyl - a pure Gem . Saw them live in 89 - was fabulous to experience
Of course this is the best cover
awesome version, by far better than any other.. aatt are unbelievably good!
AND ALSO THE TREES
Lady D'arbanville Lyrics
My Lady D'Arbanville
Why do you sleep so still?
I'll wake you tomorrow
And you will be my fill
Yes you will be my fill
My Lady D'Arbanville
Why does it grieve me so?
But your heart seems so silent
Why do you breathe so low?
Why do you breathe so low?
My Lady D'Arbanville
Why do you sleep so still?
I'll wake you tomorrow
And you will be my fill
Yes you will be my fill
My Lady D'Arbanville
You look so cold tonight
Your lips feel like winter
Your skin has turned to white
Your skin has turned to white
My Lady D'Arbanville
Why do you sleep so still?
I'll wake you tomorrow
And you will be my fill
Yes you will be my fill
My Lady D'Arbanville
Why do you greet me so?
But your heart seems so silent
Why do you breathe so low?
Why do you breathe so low?
I loved you my Lady
Though in your grave you lie
I'll always be with you
This rose will never die
This rose will never die
I loved you my Lady
Though in your grave you lie
I'll always be with you
This rose will never die
This rose will never die
❤🖤❤🖤

I cant find the right words to explain my love for this band. AATT forever...
such a lovely obscure song ... didn´t know actually that it was a cover ... AATT are such an amazing band !
Great song, and it is always about atmosphere with AATT, my all time favourite band. But still there are 7-8 songs from the album that are better. I wish I can travel to Inkberrow, Worcestershire where they started.
sublime!
simon huw jones can remake a song with this unique beautiful melancholy that can evoke nostalgic emotions ... i love them... AATT 4ever!
yes: farewell to the shade
very good cover,love it
@ukshelf I actually agree. Although that might be because I'm used to Tartanic's version. xD;;
molto bella sta canzone

@@tenorvossa The bass and drums lines were used for The Dust Sailor a couple years later but I agree, the dairy demo is very good.
Class!
@Vicar70 what????? lol
cool
he killed the song ! no one can sing it like the Cat

Feeling sorry for Cat Stevens

cat stevens version sucked, still thinking this?
This guy is tone deaf!!!!!!!
A little bit of autotune would have helped.

God, this must be a joke...
the original is awesome, this is an insult to cat stevens
This guy is tone deaf!!!!!!!
