Alison Moyet - Reassuring Pinches Lyrics






If you can't find me here
Mirror catch my breath
Deep in the thick of still
All the thirsty beasts come down to drink

Water buffers your skin
Stone forbids me to come in
I taste a ballet in this storm
Even as the paper falls
It dances

And we're big cats pacing fences
Wild cats counting inches
Hungry seeing hungry
Feed on Reassuring Pinches

Play something that will sing
Wear a porch-face frown
Let sun colour us in
When just the hand remembers now

Water buffers our skin
So truly we are untouching
Paper leaps it's ballet in a storm
Whichever way we fall
We're dancing

And we're big cats pacing fences
Wild cats counting inches
Hungry seeing hungry
Feed on Reassuring Pinches

  17. D.... K....

    I love how both 'Reassuring Pinches' and 'The Rarest Birds' share the theme that is collected on the album overall - both in visuals and in sound. It marks the important of the collection as an album, something united by continuance. The video is so dramatic and intricate but at the same time simple in a beautiful way. Alison is a great artist and I cherish every aspect of her works.

  18. G.... M....

    Such an amazing voice, she is so underrated.

  19. A.... L....

    Wonderful! Truly!

  20. b.... b....

    Let's face it, this is the best song Alison made in her whole life. I've never been a great fan, but wow, this is marvelous. I love everything: the lyrics, the melody, the mastering, the video. Absolutely sublime. Please make much, much more of this.

  31. M.... B....

    My hats off to the Producer and videographer of this HOT VIDEO

  32. M.... B....

    I really like her voice awesome song great music

  33. D.... M....

    unfortunately, she doesn't get any air play here in the states, but I truly miss her voice. this song is DOPE!!!

  34. C.... ....

    Move over Adele, Moyet is back in town better than ever- and if she doesn't get to do the next Bond film song it will be a crime!!

  35. w.... f....

    The more you hear it the better it gets class that's all

  36. N.... n....

    quel morceau !

  37. J.... L....

    Ab Fab Alf!

  38. C.... J....

    Really good and original song.

  39. C.... M....

    I'm looking forward for the song you've performed last week with the iconic band a-ha at Giske Norway, great idea :))

  40. P.... W....

    If this song goes by anything the Album is going to be great...This maybe my new "Alf"

  41. C.... D....

    Beautiful what else can I say?

  42. T.... ....

    Weird how my stepfather used to know her....

  43. D.... G....

    so synthwave 🌸💝

  44. X.... K....

    best song from the new album so far. love you!!!

  45. N.... F....

    Oddly even with her strong vocals the lyrics are hard to catch !Would love Cher to cover this .her dark moody booming voice perfect for this track.

  46. B.... F....

    These new songs are amazing ans a brilliant live appearance on Graham Norton show

  47. M.... H....

    What an amazing song - and such an enduring artist. I can remember enjoying her work in the 80's.

  48. M.... C....

    Alison was in my opinion the adele of the 80's. Nice to she her back. Still got the the big voice.

  49. S.... H....

    Alison..the female David Bowie.

  50. M.... H....

    I love a good contralto vocalist! Guy's production and Alison's noir-ish songwriting and that voice are just a heavenly combination.

  51. S.... D....

    GENIAL ALYSON ET DE RETOUR !!!!!

  52. a.... ....

    Epic..........

  53. N.... S....

    Alison, this to me is like a Bond theme - only better. The very first time I heard it, it stopped me dead in my tracks., my mouth agape, eyes watering and the hairs on the backs of my hands standing up - the surest measure... A soaring masterpiece.

    N.... S....

    Nick Sutton Well spotted with the bond theme comparison

    N.... S....

    After I said that I tried running it alongside the Skyfall trailer, the official one with Adele singing which is almost the same length as this and it is interesting to see just how much of it matches up nicely. Please try it. Just make sure you start the videos at the same time if you can.

    N.... S....

    great comparison

  54. T.... Y....

    ooh this is good

  55. N.... L....

    She's like Bowie in many ways. At least her songs and life and industry experience.

  56. N.... ....

    OMG!!! You're amazing

  57. P.... G....

    just good voice alison

  58. A.... N....

    Oooooh this track is astounding.... Alison putting the voice into electronica big time.. if my pre ordered album doesnt arrive soon i will cry... it's killing me

  59. J.... P....

    holy shite--just when i thought my AM FANatic impulses were simmering down. ...

  60. P.... T....

    Awesome song! Huge return to form.

  61. T.... F....

    Omg, this is so incredibly amazing xoxox

  62. D.... F....

    Ok, weeks later, I find myself back here. I. Can't. Stop. Watching. This.... Stunning.

  63. G.... K....

    Amazing Alison, brilliant new track! 5*

  64. u.... t....

    Awesome................................

  65. T.... T....

    I'm not sure if this amazingly talented lady can better this track....for me it's jaw-droppingly perfect.
    After all these years she wipes the floor with all other competition.

  66. A.... D....

    Magnificent!!!!!!

  67. M.... J....

    Can't wait 2 see u live on stage in Vienna Dec 16

  68. m.... s....

    Stranger than the usual! So Synth and so Wavy . . . <3 <3 <3

  69. r.... j....

    WOW, Alison is back on top form, love this can't wit for the tour and the new album.

  70. c.... ....

    The reason Alison has lasted 35 years is because she's focused on the music and released QUALITY albums. Oh and she has an outstanding voice and comes across as a lovely lady with a sense of humour (maybe she's a right cow - but I doubt it! haha)

  71. J.... M....

    Seeing this legend in reading (england) in november x

  72. I.... I....

    Fantastic !
    What a voice !!

  73. C.... M....

    Luv u Alison! Thanks!

  74. S.... O....

    What a great track!

  75. P.... B....

    This is like Yazoo all over again with some Peter Gabriel feelings in the mix!!!
    I really miss Vince Clarke and Alison Moyet making magic in the studio.
    Thank you Alison!!!!!!!!!

  76. P.... K....

    Hi All, still not `Hearing` what `most` are listening to...Anyone suggesting that this is one of her `Best-Evers`, is, it seems, in need of a wee bit of a `Holiday`...

    P.... K....

    Paul Kennedy as it appears only you are 'not hearing it', that says to me the one needing the holiday around here is you, Paul.... of seem to trawl the Moyet boards simply to post negativity.
    Go out and enjoy the sun... we here, we can all forgive someone missing the point entirely with this song, even when you laughably seem to think it's everyone else's fault. Honestly we can.

  77. D.... F....

    Love it! Unapologetically electronic, doing her own thing, not trying to be anyone except the true artist she is. Bravo Alison!

  78. F.... F....

    beautiful song synthpop

  79. l.... ....

    so so good 👌

  80. F.... L....

    Great song, great video! Really looking forward to the album! :)

  81. D.... B....

    💙💗💖💜💓❤ Thanks from Russia. Plz, come to Moscow during tour!

  82. T.... ....

    Absolutely stunning video! Brilliant voice!!! Alison gets better with age! :)

  83. P.... T....

    Magnificent.

  84. J.... C....

    It took me a while to get to like this. Now, I absolutely LOVE it . Thank you Alison <3 .

  85. v.... ....

    see u later this year

  86. M.... ....

    damn, ali. you lookin' fit. ..still sound dope af too. c o n g r a ts!

  87. o.... A....

    This one, and the title track 'other ' on the new album are once again milestones and far the very best in popular music since many years. Like the music on 'the minutes ' album. In this new video my favourite moments are these, when her eyes seem to glow in dark red . I think, this lady can be.............adorable ....evil ...:-)

  88. L.... S....

    Simply peerless......intellectual music with an edge. Wonderful

  89. M.... ....

    Anothr great track, this album is going to be amazing. Alison is one of the best British female vocalists of all time! Great to see her go back to her electronic roots again too.

  90. G.... ....

    That video (much like the music) has all the drama, swagger, vitality and intent of a brand new up and coming artist. Its like the first 30 incredible years were just the warm up and now she's hitting her stride. Incredible.

  91. K.... W....

    Inspired by The Walking Dead...?

  92. D.... F....

    Love it!!

  93. J.... M....

    Utterly wonderful. All these years later and still coming up with absolute belters.

  94. A.... L....

    back to basics

  95. a.... ....

    Nicely done, Alison!

  96. L.... L....

    Goes without saying your voice is still amazing. Have to be honest though not feeling the song.

  97. P.... G....

    alison go when debbie harry
