Blonde Redhead - Misery Is a Butterfly Lyrics






Dearest Jane I should've known better
But I couldn't say hello, I don't know why
But now I think, I think you were sad
Yes you were, you were, you were

What I say, I say only to you
Cause I love and I love only you
Dearest Jane, I want to give you a dream
That no one has given you

Remember when we found misery
We watched her, watched her spread her wings
And slowly fly around our room
And she asked for your gentle mind

Misery is a butterfly
Her heavy wings will warp your mind
With her small ugly face
And her long antenna
And her black and pink heavy wings

Remember when we found misery
We watched her, watched her spread her wings
And slowly, slowly fly around our room
And she asked for your gentle mind

  17. j.... e....

  18. M.... ....

    Same people who made the meme song

  19. b.... b....

    b.... b....

    agnes obel- riverside
    lykke li- until we bleed
    birdy- skinny love
    sophie hunger- le vent nous portera

    b.... b....

    @mervelerden biri Ahahah. Agnes Obel-Riverside benim listemde de var. Lykke li - ı follow rivers dinlerdim söylediğine de bakayım. Diğer ikisini dinleyeceğim. Müzik zevklerimizin bir kısmı benzer sanırım.

    b.... b....

    @berk bostan o kadının şarkıları güzel oluyor. aynen benziyor

  20. L.... R....

    This kind of reminds me of Jane Eyre.

  21. L.... V....

    Is it just me or does anyone think this would be an amazing song for the credits of a good horror movie

    L.... V....

    It wøuld, just like høw Elephant Wøman fit perfectly with Hard Candy

    L.... V....

    It already happened... check the movie The Dark with a song by Blonde Redhead 😉

  22. G.... S....

    I was 18 when I first listened to this album and I was so amazed. 10 years later I still feel the same. This is my favourite album ever next to kidA

    G.... S....

    12 years so far and feel the same

  23. M.... K....

    Felt like "lux Aeterna" by Clint Manshell at the start

  24. N.... K....

    I randomly clicked on this. Turns out I heard it years ago, because I remembered it instantly but never knew who it was. I love my brain! Thanks brain!

  25. M.... M....

    I like blonde redhead... but oh why couldn't i have discovered them sooner?..

    M.... M....

    y r they dead or smt?

  26. C.... M....

    Mystery is a hyperbola

  27. F.... A....

    Italian japanese estrous

    F.... A....

    Proprio vero!

  28. M.... q....

    Que clase de "por el coda dañado" es este?

    M.... q....

    Monsters qlok como estas canciones son para deprecion no crees ?

    M.... q....

    No es por "el coda dañado" la canción se llama "for the damage" coda es un símbolo que se usa en la música y se usa para canciones con diferente composición que la original

  29. C.... ....

    on voit son téton
    ouiiiiiiiiiii

  30. t.... b....

    through this beautiful song....Welcome to Monarch Programming

    Rick and Morty is the vain of my existence. This band deserves way better. Bye

  33. H.... A....

    nice nipple

  34. K.... P....

    I saw them several times in Germany, in Luxembourg... They seem so happy and they are so kind. It is a very good memory to meet them!! I love them.

    K.... P....

    Luxemburg ist n o t in Germany lmao :D

  35. b.... ....

    The whole album changed my musical perspective back when I was a kid, it has such a unique and vintage atmosphere... Sounds almost victorian, if that makes any sense.

  36. w.... g....

    Boş boş sözlərin və musiqilərin, boş boş insanların olduğu bu dünya da, təmiz qalan bu səs, musiqi... Sözlərin gücü çatmır izahetməyə gözəlliyini, səni kəşf etdiyimə sevindim. Playlistimin yeni və ömürlük səslərindən biri. Blonde Redhead

    w.... g....

    For The Damaged

    E.... ....

    Elephant woman,the dress

    E.... ....

    shannon wright and yann tiersen has an album ilke this.

  59. E.... ....

    heaven on earth to my ears

  60. t.... ....

    Remember when we found misery? We watched her spread her wings, and slowly fly around our room. And, she asked for your gentle mind.

  61. C.... ....

    I can feel gaisbourg, yes sir

    C.... ....

    Charlsalash gainsbourg and yes!!!!

  62. L.... ....

    found this band cause of the movie hard candy they used the song elephant woman

    L.... ....

    i fouund this song for the evil morty of the rick and morty!

    L.... ....

    I found em through Ray Donovan, they used falling man in one of the scenes.

    L.... ....

    LadyHellKat Same! Awesome movie

    L.... ....

    I found them through Hard Candy, what a good movie.

    L.... ....

    I found the song “the dress” in some old parody video

  63. N.... M....

    this is so beatiful,so unique

  64. A.... R....

    I honestly could not explain to anyone why I listen to this band. I find the vocals extremely grating and whiny like listening to air slowly let out of a balloon

    A.... R....

    I like the music too. Glad you got a chuckle. And the funny thing is I'm into noise music and have seen band actually do the slowly letting air out of the balloon thing! (amongst other things).

    A.... R....

    I do not hear that.

    A.... R....

    It's probably the despair, i'm drawn to that feeling they are able to make into music.... <3

    A.... R....

    I don’t hear it in all their songs. For the Damaged is so perfect, it gives me chills every time she sings after the second verse

    A.... R....

    Grimlock One,
    A certain shrillness bothered me too, the rec console wizard should have done something about it. Aside that, the music is wonderfully alienating, trippy, and unbelievably melancholic. That's quite a feat.
    I dare not say 'original', they remind me of Goldfrapp, the 1st album. And of course every musician is influenced by someone/somewhere.
    This was love at first ear for me. I know there are a million bands of which I never heard before (and never will), but I wished I discovered BR earlier. I checked them out, the highest album chart position reached was at #20, and in Italy. To think that there are fake top acts filling stadiums for decades....To quote the boy in Sixth Sense, "I See And Hear Old People".

  65. L.... ....

    Thanks so much for posting! Been looking for a while to hear this song again :)

  66. c.... ....

    My favorite album of all time. When they opened for Interpol in '05, it was magic.

    c.... ....

    ah man that concert sounds awesome

  67. U.... H....

    nice band

  68. D.... H....

    If I've listened to this 12,000 times, who listened to it the other 700 times?

    D.... H....

    Every week for 14 years and it never gets old.....

    D.... H....

    Daryl Hebert me

    D.... H....

    Sorry I was busy listening to the elephant girl 360,000 times...

    D.... H....

    This introduction looks very much a famous movie soundtrack, could not say which one.
