Undertow

Lisa Hannigan, The Colorist Orchestra

I want to swim in your current
Carry me out, up and away
I want to float
On every word you say

I want to be underneath your weather
Every cloud and ray of sun
I want to float
In between every one

I want to sink down like a stone
You never lost me you never broke
I want to be adrift on your radio
Oh take me under take me home

I want to be, all of a sudden
Every wave and undertow
I want to float
Everywhere I go

Sinéad O’Connor – Something Beautiful live at the Sugar Club, Dublin

2,198,715 views Apr 18, 2012
Something Beautiful is taken from the limited edition DVD package Theology. Recorded in the intimate environs of The Sugar Club.

Lyrics

I wanna make
Something beautiful
For you and from you
To show you
To show you
I adore you
Oh you

And your journey
Towards me
Which I see
And I see
All you push through
Mad for you
And because of you

I couldn’t thank you in ten thousand years
If I cried ten thousand rivers of tears
Ah, but you know the soul
And you know what makes it gold
You give life through blood
Blood, blood
Blood, blood
Oh, blood, blood

Oh I wanna make something so lovely for you
‘Cause I promised that’s what I’d do for you
With the Bible, I stole
I know you forgave my soul because
Such was my need on a chronic Christmas Eve
And I think we’re agreed
That it should have been free
And you sang to me

They dress the wounds of my poor people
As though they’re nothing
Saying, “Peace, peace”
When there’s no peace
They dress the wounds of my poor people
As though they’re nothing
Saying, “Peace, peace, peace”
When there’s no peace

Days without number
Now can a bride forget her jewels?
Or a maid her ornaments?
Yet, my people forgotten me

Days without number
Days without number
And in their want
Who’ll dress their wounds?
Who’ll dress their wounds?

Emmylou Harris,Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt – After the Goldrush by Neil Young. Late Show

“Trio II” was recorded in 1994 but not released until 1999, when Emmylou Harris, Dolly Parton, and Linda Ronstadt appeared on Late Show to perform Neil Young’s “After the Gold Rush.” The Glass Harmonica (or Armonica) was played by Dennis James, who remembers the performance in an interview with Rich Bailey in 2002: Rich Bailey: I remember when you appeared with her on Letterman and you discussed the Armonica a bit. How was that? Dennis James: Well, it was a great surprise. A sort of unspoken message in the air to me before the broadcast was “Do not say anything on the air!”. After all, these things are Linda’s appearances. When David L. leaned over his desk and directed a question to me I simply froze- on playback of the dub I can see myself caught and unable to speak. I received a glance from Linda that said to me it was OK and so when he tried again I called back a flip one liner and on things went from there. http://www.ronstadt-linda.com/djames…. The synthesizer player is Cliff Carter. I think the pianist is Robbie Kondor. The Trio altered two lines in their original “Trio II” recording: 1. “in the nineteen seventies” changed to “in the twentieth century.” 2. “And I felt like getting high” changed to “And I felt like I could cry.” Here’s their CD version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykMzS… It’d be tough to imagine them changing the lyrics without first getting Neil’s permission. So to everyone complaining about the lyric changes in this live performance: Don’t blame the show or the network. The changes had been made in the Trio’s original recording. And, we must assume, with Neil Young’s blessing. Update: Quoting Wikipedia: “Parton also released a solo version of the song in 1996, though her version altered the line ‘I felt like getting high’ to ‘I felt like I could cry’ with the permission of Neil Young.”
