- Kate Tempest performs War Music (After Logue) with improvised music from the Tongue Fu Band (Arthur Lea - keys, Riaan Vosloo - bass, Patrick Davey - drums) for Tongue Fu Flicks, a commission for TheSpace.org
Animations by CR&D.
Tongue Fu mixes spoken word and improvised music and film. It's hosted by poet and musician Chris Redmond
Her talent is beyond her words, and her words oh her words. She is the voice of today if we listen.
I agree. Not sure the jazz band suits her best, but the album (2014) is worth every penny.
tbh the instrumentation seems fine but the drummer is out of time
I think that the drummer and keyboard both slightly out of time adds to the discord of the content and actually adds to the piece.
She seems a bit on the nose; she should focus on the show don't tell rule a little more.
Bob Dillon of today! I can't stop listening!
Kate made me cry twice today already
That was so hard to listen to, so raw. But really fucking good! well done that girl XX
absolutely brilliant
respect sister!
love from setubal
DWZ invite ju.
Dare I say, is this girl a genius?
I know I’m blown away. She’s like a modern day Shakespeare. And she’s really needed in today’s troubled world.
💯
I've read war poetry by men who've fought. But, this sets a new standard for insight and relevance - how is this even possible???
She's brilliant, isn't she?
A true empath can feel the things they havnt experiences
When a poet can make a grown man cry with her humanity, understanding, empathy and passion.
Make that 2 grown men, brother. Love for all the tears. x
Here's number three
They've hit me in the feels multiple times now tbh.
When men hear a message there’s hope
Im crying as I write this because I too am a veteran. She kills it like one other. Wilfred Owen from WW1. Im crying as typically my soul as a veteran always does, we havve learned the lessons of war time and time again. However, our egos tend to think its ok to kill for those with the money and the power.
Grant Wideman, I love you, man. I'm sorry about what we do to each other.
Sighs and know we do not hold YOU accountable...you were/are part of a system that is so evil
deep and true. say that loud whenever u got the chance bro. keeps ur soul free from ego.
Dulce at decorum est pro patria mori , the message behind the phrase still rings true regardless of the date , humans are savages we've just streamlined and industrialised our savagery in more efficient ways with each generation
ALL other music has become, in most cases, just a bit more crappy
That pause at the end when Kate finishes and the cheering starts only happens when you've witnessed something totally engaging and brilliant, imho
I am old and this is one of the greatest anti-war war songs up there with Hendrix's Machine Gun.
Kate Tempest writes so deeply about her surroundings and what she sees matters to her and she makes it matter to all of us. I could barely contain myself from the realism of this poem and how she respected the soldiers and told some of the things they had to live through and have to live with. I only wish my father could have heard this. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Kate.
FLASHBACK!!!! just the way it is! Awesome Kate
Faces, faces, faces,
Everywhere I look,
Faces, faces, faces,
Floating in the air
Some are young,
some are old
Still, faces come in the night.
Every night fighting sleep
Just in case they come,
Dueling Mr Sandman
Only to feel numb.
Then in the rem
memories come flooding in
Like a creeping fog
Obliterating joyful scenes,
Then one by one they come
Faces, faces faces
I see the dullness in their eyes
The bloodless colour of their skin.
my hands covered in their blood
That flows and never stops
guilty, guilty, guilty they shout!
Our blood is on your hands. desperation, swinging wildly, arms flaying in the night,
Screaming, go! Go! But still they came.
Faces faces faces in the night.
Suddenly!
A piercing light fills the room,
Ghostly faces scream and shout,
Scattering into the ether of the night,
Stillness!
Calm serenity floods into the room,
its power, engulfs me,
Grace, love and protection,
Then!
A loving voice echo's in my
Heart,
I am with you!
My son!
My beloved!
My love for you never died,
I am with you,
I am always with you,
I am your shield,
Drew my son,
You are forgiven, cleansed, sanctified by my blood.
You are free for evermore.
Amen.

Fuck me this is amazing, so moving.. Kate Tempest I'll be checking you some more sista.. Thank you..
Wow. This backing music really suits her voice. Her rhymes and delivery are always flawless.
She is one the strongest performers I have worked with. Amazing energy on stage.
Outstanding. Found her today by german TV.
Now i know again the difference between art and the rest.
THIS is rap I like, THIS is what id prefer to hear over Kanye talking about how he didn't have sex with celebrities.
l couldn't agree more!
Real talent. I'm nearly 50 and my life has taken a turn.
My new friend and farm assistant from Bristol, England, 'introduced' me to Kate Tempest today. Good day today. Very good day. Likely to alter my path.
boowatson 😎😂😂😂
Respekt !!!! Wunderbar!!! Ihre Worte treffen mich mitten ins Herz!!!! Ich wünsche viel von ihr zu hören!!! Grandioses Talent!!!!
It‘s like Kate Bush‘s Army Dreamer but for the 21st century. Brilliant!
I just adore her. She's an incredible talent.
This is one of the most beautiful pieces of music there is
RIP Adrian "Wolfie" Burke RM
I am more and more impressed by this young poet. There is a rush in her heart and mind and it is contagious!
Don't miss Kate Tempest's brilliant indictment of war - pure genius.
how can someone be this good ?
One of the most powerful songs I ever heard...
listening to the words such power, such beauty in the beat of music.
as a PTSD suffer the horror of flashbacks And night terrors the words ring true to the horror of war. the death we see a death we cause.
thanks Kate.
Bob Dylan would be proud. (Pigs of War)
Incredible! using this with my year 9 class
Good work.
I'm speechless...saving and sharing this
She has the same affect as drugs have on a person: watching her is addictive. Her words, her meaning, her aura...just real. Soz, I live for this deep shit XD
indeed
I bet you’re a scorpio hehe
Loving Kate Tempest at the minute, the new album is on heavy rotation in my household! Hopefully an mf doom collab in the future? come on Big Dada hook that shit up!!
Bug respect for the DOOM t-shirt.
my hirs stood on end listning to this deep shit .cool teat shirt also
Simply and utterly amazing
a reckon Kate Tempest is set to become, Poet Laureate and she supports, Jeremy Corbyn 2017
lyrics as good as each small candle and perfect ,she has to work with better musicians
Roger Waters - Each Small Candle Lyrics
Not a big fan but this and her last album are pretty good
Stunning. I cried and cried. I don't think my brother is ready for this yet, but one day he will be and every word will have significance for him.
Thank you Kate, for leaving out dudes and dicks and bitches and cash. Literacy makes art.
If you want to compare her with someone take Anne Clark, sometimes even her voice sounds like Anne's.
this was what I thought when I heard this the first time this morning.
Anybody planning for war after watching this?
The first time I heard this song, I almost cried. It is a good song.
I am amazed she knows all that from memory.
Mike Fuller I know it to be fair
Ties in well to Armistice day. Thanks, English teacher. :-)
thank you Kae for all you give to the world
Great and fresh Anne Clark vibes!!
talked about this one at school today, just amazing!
WOW! Simply wow. Can't wait for the vinyl
This I can relate to more than most ppl no. I love it and u
gives me a chill hearing her words
Gives me chills.
Thank you so much for that!
Aaaahhhh aaaaahhhh aaaahhhh b e a utiful aaaahhh
Thinking about this today
Pure Brilliance - A Young Leader in our mist. May your battle cry for the worthy fight be heard far and wide!
I am confused , I have followed Kate for quite a while now , the words she speaks if were spoken by Pink Floyd would be a multimillion cheque in her bank ? But as she is she is fund chasing pounds ? Yes I am comparing Kate to Roger Waters , and I am also saying she is better by a long way , this piece is maybe the most mad she has ever been , and I believe every word to be true , she is a true profit and one to be cherished and listened to , this piece moves me to a place of unquestionable proof that real people suffer every day .
Moved to tears.
Pure brilliance!
Instant tears once i saw who was singing, not that i don't like the view... One heck of a voice for a plane english girl, wich she clearly isn't. First time i get to know this artist, so these are my first impressions... Don't mind me....
well what can you say
AFGHANISTAN WAR.
This is such a powerfull song. I really touched me altough i dont lnow people who died in the war but my father served many years when i was younger. And it all came back by listening this.
I don't like this british...only when "the streets" are rapping :D
new urban hymns and modern gospel, an interpretation according to Tempest. . . Testify!
_Picture the East Aegean sea by night,_
_And on a beach aslant its shimmering_
_Upwards of fifty thousand men_
_Asleep like spoons beside their lethal fleet..._
More of the sublime in four lines than Tempest has ever managed. After Logue, my arse.
I love Tempest's poetry, and I'm glad I listened to this. But - nothing of Logue here but the title:(. I was so excited to see what two of my favourite poets would create.
A different level.
Fucking A
IRAQ WAR.
Je ne sais rien des paroles de cette chanson, mais elles traversent mon cœur, avec leurs accents de vérité et d'urgence !
Kate blew me away at Glastonbury what a finish I glided across the mud on the way back to my tent
Really awesome. Think of this sung by Nick Cave
WOW!!
acabo de descubrir a esta chica hace unas cuantas horas y ¡DIOOOS! realmente es talentosa :O
Roger Waters of Pink Floyd should hear this !
Wow this is amazing. I'm excited to read her collection after hearing this!
Yes this is personal to me, sound Kate. Good performance
WOW, only a year late hearing this. Amazing Kate, really amazing.
elle me fait penser à un mix entre Jacques Brel et Gil Heron Scott !!!
amazing artist...such passion and soul...as real as it gets...moved to tears
she's a reality poem ' a new ' Anne Clark ? ; )
So damn good. I utterly cannot believe this track is not on the LP, EP, or anywhere but here really. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
+Nate Julian was filmed as part of a tongue fu show, not recorded in a studio
Beautiful sad and moving words.
Not a word of this is wasted. Brilliant
Amazing! I had goosebumps! :D
That song could've gone on for a long time!
REALLY W.T.F. AM I DOING IN UTAH
Sooo powerful. . Almost brought a tear to my eye
As a mom of three boys, I concur.
She should work with roger waters
Beautiful words. Her best.
