Blogovision 2019, no.02: FKA twigs - Magdalene


And I, just want to feel you're there
And I don't want to have to share our love
I try, but I get overwhelmed
When you're gone I have no one to tell
And I, just want to feel you're there
And I don't want to have to share our love
I try but I get overwhelmed
All wrapped in cellophane, the feelings that we had

Lyrics from Cellophane by FKA twigs, from her album Magdalene

Blogovision 2019, best albums of the decade no.05: David Bowie - Blackstar



Something happened on the day he died
Spirit rose a metre and stepped aside
Somebody else took his place, and bravely cried:
(I'm a blackstar, I'm a blackstar)
How many times does an angel fall?
How many people lie instead of talking tall?
He trod on sacred ground, he cried aloud into the crowd
(I'm a blackstar, I'm a blackstar, I'm not a gangstar)

Lyrics from Blackstar by David Bowie from his album Blackstar

Blogovision 2019, no.05: Bat For Lashes - Lost Girls


Oh, I love ya

Ah-ah-ah-ah, oh
Oh, I love ya
I feel for you
Ah-ah-ah-ah

Lyrics from Feel For You by Bat For Lashes, from her album Lost Girls

Come on Joe, just 22 to go,
come on Joe, just 22 to go.
Come on Joe, just you and the Eskimos,
Come on now, just 22 to go.
Come on now, just 22 to go,
Let me hear your 50 words for snow.

Blogovision 2019, no.06: Vampire Weekend - Father Of The Bride


Baby I know hate
Is always waiting at the gate;
I just thought we'd locked the gate when we left in the morning.
And I was told that war
Is how we landed on these shores;
I just thought the drums of war'd be louder warnings.

Lyrics from This Life by Vampire Weekend, from the album Father Of The Bride

Blogovision 2019 best albums of the decade, no.07: The Irrepressibles - Nude

If I asked you now
Will you be my prince
Will you lay down your armour
And be with me forever
When you open me
All the power in me moves
How you want to see
All the depths of me real
When you open me
All the power in me moves
I feel real

Lyrics from Two Men In Love by The Irrepressibles, from their album Nude

Blogovision 2019, no.07: Cigarettes After Sex - Cry


Back when you were far away
We would go on dates to watch the same movie
And you were imagining sitting next to me
Holding my hand for the whole thing

Lyrics from Falling In Love by Cigarettes After Sex, from their album Cry

Blogovision 2019 best albums of the decade, no.08: The National - High Violet


And I won't follow you
Into the rabbit hole
I said I would, but then I saw your shivered bones
They didn't want me to

It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walking in
It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walking in

It takes an ocean not to break

Lyrics from Terrible Love by The National, from their album High Violet

Blogovision 2019, no.08: Orville Peck - Pony


Time goes by I wanna rise up
And I know why things change
And I know why I stay the same

Some say I should learn to cry
But I only learned how to fly
And I know everything must die
But nothing fades like the light

Lyrics from Nothing Fades Like The Light by Orville Peck, from his album Pony

Blogovision 2019, best albums of the decade, no.09: Daft Punk - Random Access Memories


Everybody dancing on the floor
Can't do any more anymore
Everybody on the floor
Yeah, come on
Lose yourself to dance

Lyrics from Lose Yourself To Dance by Daft Punk, from their album Random Access Memories

Blogovision 2019, no.09: Lizzo - Cuz I Love You




Explicit as ever, vicious as ever
Christian and clever, diss it dismiss it this is just better
Vision is better
Making high art
But high art can't revive hearts
I'ma do this God talk
Don't need a pity party, my people pity your party
The party I'm a part of imparts partials of pardons
Can't pick apart any part of the pick don't want no part with it
I played a artist, now pardon, I brought my partners in
I think I know what we revealing
Life is over, easy
Everybody's shell cracked
I holdin my dignity never said that
We got bigger fish to fry, know when to scale back

Lyrics from Tempo by Lizzo, from her album Cuz I Love You

Blogovision 2019, best albums of the decade, no.10: Dead Can Dance - Anastasis


With every generation comes
Another memory lapse
See the demonstrations of
Failing to learn from our past
We live in the dreamtime
Nothing seems to last
Can you really plan a future
When you no longer have a past

Memories fall from the trees
Amnesia

Lyrics from Amnesia by Dead Can Dance, from their album Anastasis 

Blogovision 2019, no.10: Chrissie Hynde - Valve Bone Woe


I'm a fool to want you
To want a love that can't be true
A love that's there for others too
I'm a fool to hold you
Such a fool to hold you
To seek a kiss not mine alone
To share a kiss that Devil has known

Blogovision 2019, best albums of the decade, no.11: John Grant - Pale Green Ghosts



But I am the greatest motherfucker that you're ever gonna meet
From the top of my head, down to the tips of the toes on my feet
So go ahead and love me while it's still a crime
And don't forget, you could be laughing sixty-five percent more of the time
You could be laughing sixty-five percent more of the time

Lyrics from GMF by John Grant, from his album Pale Green Ghosts

Blogovision 2019, no.11: Lana Del Rey - Norman Fucking Rockwell


So I moved to California‚ but it's just a state of mind
It  turns out everywhere you go‚ you take yourself‚ that's not a lie
Wish that you would hold me or just say that you were mine
It's killing me slowly

Dream a little dream of me
Make  me into something sweet
Turn the radio on, dancing to a pop song
Fuck it, I love you

Blogovision 2019 best albums of the decade, no.12: Tame Impala - Currents


Once again, as it takes a hold
I am aware I'm not in control
You see, I have a conscience and it's never fooled
But it's prone to be overruled
You wanna know what I always think I'm bind by
You never accept defeat or let it slide
But I have no voice if I don't speak my mind
My weakness is the source of all my pride, I'll tell you why

Lyrics from Cause I'm A Man by Tame Impala, from the album Currents
