She’s great. I saw her over 20 years ago for her first solo album.
This is one of these songs that’s even better if you know what the lyrics mean, so there’s a fan translation over here:
Where did you go? Wait a minute, Mr. Criminal.
If you hide, I can’t arrest you.
Beth Gibbons is playing Coachella this year, I think every year we sneak closer and closer to a Portishead reunion. I play at least one of their records every day.
Geoff Barrow has left Beak> so maybe a reunion is not far off.
Not exactly Portishead adjacent but it’s on the mind, has anyone been listening to the new Cure record? Somehow these guys have spent nearly half a century just getting better and better.
It’s been a couple of years since I listened to this banger of an album, but I’m spending the afternoon playing it loud. Neighbours been damned.
