  • Drink up baby, stay up all night
    With the things you could do
    You won't but you might
    The potential you'll be that you'll never see
    The promises you'll only make
    Drink up with me now
    And forget all about the pressure of days
    Do what I say and I'll make you okay
    And drive them away
    The images stuck in your head
    The people you've been before
    That you don't want around anymore
    That push and shove and won't bend to your will
    I'll keep them still
    Drink up baby, look at the stars
    I'll kiss you again between the bars
    Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air
    Waiting to finally be caught
    Drink up one more time and I'll make you mine
    Keep you apart, deep in my heart
    Separate from the rest, cause I like you the best
    And keep the things you forgot
    The people you've been before
    That you don't want around anymore
    That push and shove and won't bend to your will
    I'll keep them still

    Elliot's original was magical, transformative, fragile. However, I love Metric as well and I feel Emily made Elliot smile wherever he is with this one.

    In some ways I prefer this to Madeleine Peyroux's version. I has a raw, sincere quality that one lacks. There's no question Peyroux has the sweeter voice, and the more skillful arrangement. What I like about the Emily Haines version is her comparative unselfconsciousness. Peyroux tries too hard at stretching out every last syllable for Effect, and it wears on my patience.
    Both are charming in their way.

      Dirty Dream Catcher do the world a favor and keep your negativity bottled up inside, preferably for a really fuckin long time so you can get nice and plump with your suppressed ugliness, until finally one day you won't be able to stuff anything else down in that dark pit you've got in the space a heart usually occupies and you just explode.
      Try to stay indoors and contain your mess so you don't inflict yourself on the rest of us.
