    Best songwriter alive today. I imagine Elliott Smith playing this and it being one of his best and most loved songs.

    In my opinion Adrianne is a prodigy...and on her way to becoming a cultural gem. I believe soon, more and more will applaud her band's great work, her marvelous guitar playing, and genuine song making ability.

      well she’s been fingerpicking since she was six so i’d say she’s got enough practice time to be considered a prodigy. and she’s been writing since she was at least 17

    i know we all see it but i just want to praise the brilliant and beautiful wordplay of "forwards beckon rebound" and "two reverse"

      Hi! I'm Spanish and I don't quite get it, could someone please explain them to me? I love Adrianne and I'm really interested, thanks!

      @@rpintre sure thing!
      Beckon, or to invite over, is a less common word in regular use, so when you first hear the song you hear it as "forwards, back, and rebound". Same with Two Reverse, which i'm sure most people hear as "two rivers" the first time.

      @@hissorchid I love her wordplay so much!!!!! didn't even notice these; there's also one in 'not a lot, just forever', where "pair of dice" sounds like "paradise", which I think works so well in the rest of the song

    I love her voice so much. This song gives me a very warm feeling even though it's sad. Also, her guitar work is superb.

    Lyrics:
    Over the Dead Sea
    Keeping you company
    Thinking, I'm not afraid of you now
    I'm not afraid of you now
    Letting my eyes close
    Shedding my soft clothes
    Wind blows
    Wind that howls like a hound
    Wind that laughs like a clown
    Mystery of lack
    Stabbing stars through my back
    Forwards, beckon, rebound
    Forwards, beckon, rebound
    Virtual bedroom
    Rise like a full moon
    Show me pictures that hang in your house
    Pictures that hang in your mouth
    Candescent insects
    Crosses and fishnecks
    I have nothing to pray to you now
    Nothing to pray to you now
    Mystery of lack
    Stabbing stars through my back
    Forwards, beckon, rebound
    Forwards, beckon, rebound
    Pulling your face close
    Wanting the inmost
    Show me
    I'm not afraid of you now
    I'm not afraid of you now
    Villain and violent
    Infant and innocent
    Baby, both arms cradle you now
    Both arms cradle you now
    Mystery of lack
    Stabbing stars through my back
    Forwards, beckon, rebound
    Forwards, beckon, rebound
    Forwards, beckon, rebound

    Has anyone figured the tuning? Please i suck at guitar (but somehow i manage to learn most of her songs because i need to). :’)

    • @harrisonmills3486
      @harrisonmills3486 Před 3 lety +14

      I think it's the same tuning as Come, which is
      G
      A
      F#
      D
      G
      D
