lyrics

Beatified

You shone so bright
I was living in darkness before
You were the light
I fell to my knees to adore
It felt so right
Of nothing had I been so sure
Love at first sight
I never wanted anything more

Beatified
From this feeling there was nowhere to run or to hide
Beatified
I was reeling and no-one with whom I could confide

Been a long time gone
The memory it still endures
I know it won’t be long
Until my hand’s again in yours
I’m not always strong
But my faith is not romantic conceit
I know I’m not wrong
The Beloved’s kiss still tastes so sweet

Beatified
From this feeling there was nowhere to run or to hide
Beatified
I was reeling and no-one with whom I could confide

Blake recommends:

North Circular
by Bevis Frond

Being a singer-songwriter/multi-instrumentalist/home recorder myself, and largely inspired by The Frond, I appreciate the amount of talent that has gone into creating this amazing work of art. Genius! Blake

Sometimes In The Morning
by Simon Wells

Gorgeous album full of charm and wit, wonderful imagery, observations on provincial British life, characters brought to life with the skill of a novelist and nods to the ghosts of a visionary Albion. Blake

CHOOCHTOWN
by HAMELL ON TRIAL

Choochtown is possibly the greatest, most creative album by one person I've ever heard. It's like a Raymond Chandler whodunnit which is in turns funny, romantic, violent, scary & uplifting. Gotta get! Blake

Brighter Now
by Eggs on Mars

supported by 28 fans who also own “Beatified”

Eggs On Mars are one of the most consistently great bands of recent times with a ramshackle charm all their own. The 2019 album “It Will Be Like It Was” was one of the best of recent times and Brighter Now is shaping up to be the best of 2021. If you dig Flying Nun, The Pastels, Jad Fair, The Velvets, Beat Happening etc you’ll find plenty to love here. suncharms

by heka

Four great, delicate songs from heka that are both gentle and haunting, graceful vocal melodies floating across a bed of acoustic guitar. Bandcamp New & Notable May 28, 2021
