LYRICS
You’re darker these days, I thought you were sun
Stars in your eyes, when your shirt is undone
Your skin is full moon, a reflection of light
That sleeps in the daytime, stays up most of the night
A blackhole my dear, a beautiful empty
You’re sucking me dry and spitting out memories
It feels like we’re fading, you’re miles away
Are you still there, love? Do you have nothing to say?
Eurydice baby, is that your sweet footfall?
Oh say something, anything, a howl or a call
To the wilds of this wasteland, where blindly I blunder
Shatter the silence rolling through me like thunder
Don’t know what you’re thinking, can’t read your mind
I can’t read your eyes when you’re walking behind me
I trust that you’ll follow me up to the air
I wish there was something to let me know you’re still there
A kiss on my neck child to know you’re still living
The sound of your voice be it cruel or forgiving
A touch of your skin or a scratch down my spine
Anything, anything, to let me know you’re still mine
And first light of morning, a moment of still
A comma, a dash, a loaded ellipsis ‘til
You sink under slowly, I knew you were only
A shadow behind me...
I loved you blindly
Very special. I'm in my eighth decade, lifelong player/writer/singer/vinyl junkie, I'm always keeping my ear to the ground, and it's never too late to give a thumbs-up to the new emerging custodians of the true music and the spirits that drive it. Here's someone who looks likely to keep the magic alive: the hills, the sky, the longing, all timeless but always timely. Music of this quality is essential in these weird times ... Thanks & good luck, Katherine.
Thank you Andrew - such kind words. Really means a lot.
I LOVE YOUR COMMENT AS MUCH AS I LOVE KATHERINE'S VOICE & STYLE! SHE IS AT THE TOP OF MY FAVES LIST.
I agree , she's super
My precious, beautiful, kind and gentle wife is suffering from serious depression at the moment , and I just can’t reach her Katherine, so this song feels like everything to me right now. Thank you. X
I'm sorry I didn't see this comment sooner. It's so sorry to hear about your wife - I hope this song provides some sort of comfort, or at least company. Sending love x
You didn’t need to comment Katherine, as I just wanted you to know how much this song means. However I am blown away that you took the time to. X
Now and again, very rarely if I'm honest, an artist comes along that just takes your breath away. One of the most beautiful, honest voices I've heard in a very long time.
What a lovely message to receive. Thank you Stew.
@@KatherinePriddyOfficial you're so welcome. Can't wait for the album, good luck with it.
I completely agree
100% agreed & exactly how I feel right now. Just back from seeing Katherine in Glasgow & WAOW !!!! blew me away. Loved every minute, every word & every note 😊👍✌️
@@kevinnimmo2621 Oh fantastic Kevin 😃, glad you had a great night 👍🏻
Only recently discovered Katherine... Finally! Just received a note my copy of Eternal Rocks is on it's way to me on the West Coast, US. So refreshing to hear a sweet voice singing us her endearing, and poetic words. Her stream-of-consciousness delivery is soooo addictive. To be sure, wherever he may be, Mr. Joyce is smiling.🙂
Sublime. Few artists give me goosebumps like this… Sandy Denny is one, and now, you. Just wonderful.
I agree, Katherine, like Sandy Denny has that ineffable quality few have
I got a recommendation from Amazon for The Eternal Rocks Beneath. I had never heard of Katherine but I always check out people that I don't know so I've just listened to Indigo followed by Eurydice. What remarkable songs these are and what a wonderful voice Katherine has.
The songs are haunting and harmonically rich. On the basis of just these two songs, I'm going to purchase the album and I know I won't be disappointed.
A beautiful song, hauntingly sung!
Challenging, unsettling, breathtaking. Beautiful.
There's magic here, very eager for this album release.
Have just discovered this artist. She is incredible what a talent. Love it.
Thank you Steve, very kind. Welcome aboard!
Oh my heart.Such beauty and sadness in this song.
Just heard this on BBC 6 and had to go find it again! Sublime!
ditto
This is immense
Quality.
The same qualities in your voice today as when I first had the pleasure to photograph you performing. So much delicacy and control, staggering Katherine. Staggering.

To me this is a song about living with a partner with depression. Trying to retrieve their soul from the depths of despair. And in such a delicate act, the smallest of glances is enough to shatter everything. Such a haunting song about love and despair.
I can’t get over how beautiful this is.
A truly beautiful and moving song that perfectly encompasses the sad story of Eurydice and Orpheus. Indeed a song worthy of Orpheus himself.
Watched Katherine perform this last night in Perth. Brilliant.
Gives me all the chills.
Mark and Stuart played you this morning on 6music on their best of the year show and they're not wrong. I immediately recommend you to my daughter. I hope to see you live before you're playing 10000 seater venues.
Best wishes for the future
I watched this video last week shortly before we came up to Deepdale for the festival. You immediately went on my " Not to be missed " list, of course! Great to have a brief chat with you too when I bought your album. You are wildly talented. You may well have been told this before! :)
Best voice I have heard since I started listening to Kate Bush many many years ago.. 👏👏👏 Fantastic
A beautiful song, beautifully sung. Excellent production too. Katherine's best yet?
Orpheus & Eurydice is my favourite classical myth. The closing lines of your song bring a lump to my throat every time I listen (which is a lot of times!)
I am going to a concert of yours in Decemeber with my dad and I can't wait to see you perform. I love all of your songs, but this one captures my heart the most. Thank you for this amazing song and I look forward to hearing more from you ♡
Truly astonishing… goosebumps on my goosebumps ♥️
She joins the pantheon of William Blake and the eternals...
This is music.
Of the ' you don't pull no punches but you don't push the river' greatness????
What a stunning track!! Finest piece of music i have heard in a long long time!!!
Heard this on the radio this morning and just knocked out! what a voice and words that go very deep, a new fan!
Thankyou Iggy, played just now on R6 20/02. One of the gems your lucky to come across once in a blue moon...Beautiful, tears in the eys.. Thankyou
can't tell you how much I love this song ... uniquely beautiful
I heard you through the Nick Drake thing - This is beautiful! Good luck in anything you do x Matt
Beautiful , sincere performance, production vocal and lyrics.
Incredible.
Oh God! Her voice ❤️
Saw you in Glasgow tuesday night, Great set.This was my fav.Thank you amazing voice
This will never stop giving me goosebumps
Wow! What a track! The lyrics.... The musicality...... The voice..... So moving. Got it on repeat..... And can I hear a touch of Radiohead in there? One of the best Katherine, keep it up!
very very cool. vibe of paranoid android. amazing production and structure
God this is great!
You are always moving your mouth to pull out all your miracle ways! Great song.
Was seduced by her music at Rhythmtree on Sunday, helping to bring me back from the dead after lockdown, love the Greek myths, lots of obscure wisdom. Such wonderful talent! Hope to see her again but in the south😕 Grayshott Folk Club?
This is so magnificent - It is so lovely
It took me 1.49" to realise that this is genius and the video is shimmeringly sensuous, too. I came to this via John Martyn via his mate who wrote the lyrics for "Anna" in Australia and I'm in Kerala. So it goes round the world! Brilliant musician, Mademoiselle Priddy.
Love Jphn Martyn ..he left us too soon
Beautiful. But the whole album is. There's bits where her voice is so gentle it feels like a scented soft breeze. Feel privileged to listen to her.
This may be the most powerful song/poem I've ever read. It feels so very personal as a confession. Plus, a wonderful performance. Thank you.
Reminds me of Sandy Denny. This is a very good thing indeed. Go Katherine ❤️❤️
This is really moving! In a perfect world you'd collaborate with Daniel Rossen, Damon Albarn, and Hania Rani. Much love to you and yours!
This one just builds and builds.
First time hearing it. The start i wasn't sure nice voice nothing bad just pleasant enough to want to keep going and as the song progressed it just got better and better.
By the end i was fully hooked in. Great song.
Had the pleasure of meeting Katherine at an event i was compering recently and i am now looking up the music and rapidly becoming a fan 😀
Brilliant. Unbelievably beautiful.
been watching this video a few times daily since a friend recommended it and, though i missed tonight's performance at one of my favourite ever venues (old st. pancras) because of unmoveable video edit deadlines, i can confirm that after a long day & night's work this just moved me to tears. absolutely sublime, thank you for making it.
Simply goose bumps...
Wow ❤️
Beautiful. Your voice is so smooth and songs are so soothing, please keep up the amazing art.
I listen to shed loads of music and this is a real gem.
Really loving the album. Best wishes for 2022.
nice❤
very atmospheric, love the space then the crescendo.
Im so glad i found your music today🙂I stumbled into a clip of you singing along with George Boomsa doing Black waterside and started following the thread .I really enjoy your music,you have a new fan.
Superb. Quality wordsmithery, gorgeous music and that voice. I'm quite blown away. The last time I was moved enough by new music to buy an album was Orixé by the much missed Saturday Sun early in 2014, I can't wait to get my hands on this album at the end of the month.
Beautiful voice again and also liked how you sang Nick Drake's song so astoundingly.
Well just wow. Beautiful.
Fantastic video to complement this gorgeous music Katherine. Looking forward to hearing the full album next month.
I'm so glad i found your music 😍
Another great song!! I love your music, Katherine! ❤️
Banger.
Any plans to come to Canada to play? You would be most welcome!
I would absolutely love to - hopefully one day soon. Do feel free to spread the word over there in the meantime!
Beaut!
Not sure how I missed this track! So, so good. Was just watching your Holocene cover from about ten years ago - that's the first I heard your amazing voice. Always a fan. :)
magic what soul .
Hypnotically beautiful
I waited ages for this to come out on record.... pre ordered and got it !I
Nice song, thank you.
Lovely stuff!
wow :)
Absolutely beautiful KP.
Can I propose a marriage between this song and Orpheus by David Sylvian. They are well matched. I mean that in a complimentary way.
Beautiful 💜 heard of you on #ashevillefm #musicmymotherwouldnotlike and I am so grateful!
😁😍👋 *Been luving listening to and now we get this visual accompaniment...thank you*
Katherine .... please may I request again for the lyrics to be shared for this and also WOLF
{in description area or comments? if that is easiest} Many varied people are in need of such
and I've tried to find for WOLF especially via 'the Goggler' to no avail.
Hey there! I have now added the lyric for this song in the description. I hope that helps! The physical album also comes with a lyric booklet for all 10 tracks and is available to pre-order now - if you fancy! x
@@KatherinePriddyOfficial Hello and thank you 'so' very much for that and the information, I hope the album sales are outstanding for you as you so very much deserve. Absolutely 'love' your writing and dynamic vocals. I only wish I had learned of you 'way' before this year, but have been catching up and going back to listen to all that I can find via YT and 'the' Googler. All the continued best.
Great recording, is there any way you can unlock the original recording you had on youtube from like 5 or so years ago? That one had some powerful vocals
Thank you! I'm not sure what version you mean as this is the only time I've ever recorded it. Perhaps someone else uploaded a live version? Pleased you like it though.
@@KatherinePriddyOfficial Must have been! wish i could find it
@@KatherinePriddyOfficial I've listened to this at least 100 times and am pleased to say It's a masterpiece, will be in my top 10 songs I take through the decades, You're up there with some eternal greats with this one.
check this out Katherine

Astonishingly beautiful voice and delivery, captivating lyrics and awesome production.
'I might be wrong' but do I hear something of Radiohead in this? Regardless, you are performing in in the North East in October...now booked and very excited to see and hear you.
This is really beautiful Kathrine. exquisite understated vocal, clear and dry. the Production is great too with its quite trippy, subtle underpinning swells and Harrison type backwards guitars. I am defo a fan. You might like my stuff too, though I'm clearly further behind on my journey.
