Susanna is one of those rare artists that you can hear the emotion in her voice when she sings. This is a cover song, originally recorded by Joy Division, I believe, and it's been covered by a few other bands...but I absolutely love this version. She sings it so beautifully.
When I hear this song I think of two people in a relationship that are kind of growing apart from each other and they feel like the relationship has come to a stand-still. They separate but ultimately come together again for some reason they can't really figure out. They love each other, but they know deep down that it's coming to an end...or really, that it's been over for some time.
"Our respect runs so dry
Yet there's still this appeal
That we've kept all our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again"
I also think this lyric is written so perfectly:
"When the routine bites hard"
The imagery fits so well. It's you realizing so suddenly how monotonous your life is that it feels like you've been bitten...hard.
But that credit goes to the writer of the song, I suppose.
This is one of those songs that I put on repeat and just listen.
