Afghan Whigs, The - Algiers Lyrics
Faith, the diamond in the chain
Still I was a slave, waiting to be saved
Dream, the body sleeps but I
Am not too proud to roam
On the back streets
You'll know this when it's time to go
Stray, and soon you'll leave behind
The loneliness you've sown, paradise leans
Scream, the body leaves the bone
To sit upon the throne
The battle waged for light
Dream, dream your sins away
Sin your dreams away
Unchain!
Say you'll love me tonight
Save your love for me tonight
And I feel you now
Lie awake and love drunk
I feel you now
Heavenly daemons outside my window
Sent here to see me outside this world
I call the shadow, you call the season
And that's solitary

Afghan Whigs, The Algiers Comments
Ray donovan!
one of the most underrated artists in human history
FUCKIN RAY RAY
wicked game
Great song, stupid clip.
The only time Greg Dulli ever held a note was when he was inhaling coke through it. Learn how to sing already fat boy.
What I find while surfing the border between shadow and self.....so splendid. Musics not bad either
Hi guys, I'm from Algiers. However, this doesn't look like Algiers at all
What the hell is going on in this video?
the sound effects are a great touch. i like how they completely distract from and ruin the best parts of the song.
My love is saved for you tonight .....
Ray Donovan.... :)
Future el classico the heavenly
lly demons outside my window bit does me in everytime!xX
Currently on Purealternative FM Playlist
I love you tonight-
who's the actress in the videio
2019 i still listen
Greg is a legend
Fantastic track
Finally found it! Former coworker used to play this all the time at work haha
I need to change jobs.
Hell yeah.
Love Afghan Whigs and this song is still amazing after these few years
RAY DONOVAN BROUGHT ME HERE <> Great song too.
Eksen çalar.o sayede tanıdık.👍👍👍👍👍
Comment this on 2018. I say its a great song overall. Melancholic and atmospheric at the same time. Although I'm not sure why choose Algiers as the title
FUCKIN RAY RAY
I was so surprised when this awesome song featured in Ray Donovan. Great way to end the show.
Is this from a movie?
Ray Donovan, Season 2, Episode 9 "Snowflake"
Plays end of episode through ending credits 💜
FOR ALL OF YOU HELLO FROM ALGIERS IN ALGERIA☺☺☺
North Africa or New Orleans?
awesome! (from turkey)
One Million !!!!!!!!!!!
Algiers
The Afghan Whigs Algiers lyrics
Flamed, the time when nearly changed
Still I was a slave, waiting to be saved
Dream, the body sleeps but I
Am not too proud to roll
On the back streets
So, so simple when you know
You know this when it's time to go
Strange, the sooner you leave behind
Lonely as you sold paradise
Scream, the body leaves the bone
To sit upon the throne
A better waits for life
Dream, dream your sins away
Sing your dreams away
You're holding back, still holding back Algiers
Huh
Say you love me tonight
Save you love for me tonight
And I feel you now
I lie awake on the way of love
And I feel
But I
Heavenly daemons outside my window
Sent here to see me outside this world
I call the shadow, you call the season
That's all it takes
A tous un grand bonjour d'Alger en Algérie
For all of you hello from Algiers in Algeria
Whoever the music director is for Ray Donovan is amazing, they deserve an award. I've heard so much awesome music from that show. This song is hauntingly beautiful❤
Dave Rosser is awesome !! R.I.P. Your missed !
Sounds like an Oasis song to me... found it, 'The Importance of Being Idle' check it out. Very very similar melody. If not directly stolen. Listen to the guitar in the background, before the distortion kicks in. The tempo and the overall feel is very simliar aswell.
I listen to this guitar solo at 2:04 somewhat religiously.
Liev Fucking Shreiber. this dude plays that part perfectly. ***k. what a show this is. Good song.
Greg Dulli brought me here.
Faith
The diamond in the chain
Still I was a slave
Waiting to be saved
Dream
The body sleeps but I
Am not too proud to roam
On the back streets
It's oh, so simple when you know
You'll know this when it's time to go
Stray
And soon you'll leave behind
The loneliness you've sown
Paradise leans
Scream
The body leaves the bone
To sit upon the throne
The battle waged for light
Dream
Dream your sins away
Sin your dreams away
You're holding back, stop holding back
Unchain!
Say you'll love me tonight
Save your love for me tonight
And I feel you now
Lie awake and love drunk
I feel you now
Heavenly daemons outside my window
Sent here to see me outside this world
I call the shadow, you call the season
That salted wound...
i call the shadow you call the season.
ode to mark lanegan?
I think what had to be spoken to Mark was spoken. Not saying it's easier.... https://youtu.be/K0m4pahSRJw
So supposedly this song got it's name from being recorded in Algiers, LA (suburb of New Orleans) where I was living at the time. Video does not give one glimpse of Chubbies Fried Chicken, The Dry Dock, or the various daiquiri stores where one can get pickled with a Tulane & Broad at all hours. To much to ask for a shout-out?
Greg's voice is bone chilling. Love the Whigs
so much autotune at the end...
Bellissima
Im the opposite. I just loved this song, so i might now watch Ray Donovan
Would anyone know the brand/model of those sunglasses that Greg Dulli is wearing?
zabio vam ga rej donovan..svimaa
I can listen to this song all day. I love the music and the raspy voice. Seriously sexy!
hah Ray donovan xDD
Love Ray and
this Song!
love ray donovan
Mothefucker ray donovan
Would anyone know the brand and model of Greg's sunglasses? They are awesome.
this song is way too underrated
The song is a masterpiece, why waste it with the unpleasant sound of the whips and the violence?
Ray Donovan 😊 thank you
I've always heard and loved Afghan Whigs...they've always played the soundtrack of my life...
Fuck you
Descobri esta música no seriado Ray Donavan, desde então ela se tornou trilha sonora dos meus rolês. Melhor descoberta de 2017.
Anyone else think the opening of this song sounds a lot like the opening from the true detective season 1 opening song(The handsome family - far from any road)
Dulli's voice hasn't lost a thing. Still great as ever.
Goodbye Dave you were great, one of the greats.
I haven't listened to these guys in years. just felt the urge. this song shows off some of their influences, like Roy orbison and the church.
RIP Dave
Never put sound effects in a music video. It ruins the song as it does at the crescendo here.
шарил в инете музыку ,случайно наткнулся на эту группу,очень,очень даже ништяк.
Ray Donovan
That GTA font looks appropriate in the thumbnail.
Love from Algiers , Algeria .great song thank you ♡♡♡♡♡
Quinton Tarantino would love this shit.
Can definitely say that at least 1000 of the views are mine ! Love this song!
Damn this song is so catchy it's been stuck in my head for days, when I listen to it I can feel myself in the back of that limo
Discovered this song on Ray Donovan, they should have used this as main soundtrack ! such a great song !
the Afghan Whigs are bad a$$
I dont know why but this song runs through my mind at least once a week....I'm obsessed.
Ray Ray Ray Donovan!!!!
GREG Dulli does it again..love this band since high school and that was a long time ago! Checkout the Beautiful Girls soundtrack for a cover of Barry Whites Can't get enough of your love by the Afghan Whigs
Who are the 66 assholes that don't like this?
Ben Marks 68 now.
Michael Koech unreal man.. I guess some ppl just don't like incredible music?.. Crazy
Ben Marks Hi Ben, I totally agree with you. There are 68 humans that don't have taste in music
People that don't appreciate music, that's who!
Boss band. They always deliver. Always.
Amazing Song!! I would love to hear more of such songs, if anyone can recommend such powerful melodies !
My hero, Ray Donovan. What a mother fuckin awesome family. Great series. Best since The Sopranos.

Ray Donovan thank you....and love the high plains drifter connection
I must say: Thank you Ray Donovan....the song is so good!!!!!!
I am here because I am a fan of the Afghan Whigs. Not because of some TV show. But hey, whatever leads you to this great music is a good thing!
Rochelle Pettijohn me too 👌
Rochelle Pettijohn me too :)
this song is fucking incredible. FUCKING INCREDIBLE god damn it.
great song ,amazing lyrics and mind blowing video
I saw some dude running for Algeria in the olympics and thought of this song for some reason.
Algiers louisiana
Confusing title, some people think it's about Algiers in North Africa, but actually it's about Algiers, New Orleans .. !!! but then Afghan ????
afghan whigs is a biker gang in US
Ray Donovan sent me. But he told me not to talk about it. So I lied to the police instead.
I saw you
lol that's just how it goes!
But of course. While tell the truth when a lie will suffice? Rather lie to police than Ray.
Hateful Eight meets Karma Police
Des DZ par ici ?
This is not Algiers DZ, but Algiers New Orleans, USA
I know. At least i know it's in the US. I'm just asking if there are any Algerians in the comment section :)
