An astounding song. It floors me every time. The imagery of land, water and beasts - nature, and the total bravery of what's disclosed is stunning. I wouldn't care to guess what Martin's meaning is, but to me, broadly, it seems to be an account of being torn apart by love, with a sort of injured outrageous irony about it.
Nice review. It's really amazing how unknown this guy is. Sometimes I get the feeling he's doing it on purpose, but it would be nice if he got some success. I remember the first time I heard this C.D.- it was like nothing else I've ever heard before, and it's still one of the most overplayed CD's I have. I read somewhere that the whole thing was his way of coping with overwhelming loneliness he was going through.
Martin Tielli and the Be Good Tanyas are the last two things I must see live before I can theoretically call it quits....
