Case, Neko - Favorite Lyrics






Oh lie
I thought you were golden
I thought you were wise
Caught you returning
To the house you caught fire
But I know that I was your favorite
And I said Amen

Wise, found favorin' heaven
And I at your side
But I never felt sorry
For those shimmering lies
When I laid down and cried
I was faking
And I said Amen

Last night I dreamt
That I hit a deer with my car
Blood from his heart
Spilled out onto my dress and was warm
He begged me to follow
But legions of sorrow defied me

Oh lie
I thought you were golden
I thought you were wise
When I caught you returning
To the house you caught fire
But I know that I'm your favorite
And I said "Amen"
Oh favorite
And I said Amen

    Less than two months after 9/11 I saw Neko perform this as a part of the Corn Sisters with Carolyn Mark at the Knitting Factory in Tribeca. They were the opening band for Kelly Hogan.
    It was the first time I ever saw her sing live. I can't desribe how amazing it was to hear this that very first time. I just remember being transfixed....

    Where *is* this version from?

    G.... A....

    Her 2001 album Canadian Amp.

  3. B.... L....

    i'm partial to the live version on the Tigers live album because when the woman in the crowd screams when the band comes back in after the vocalization, one totally identifies with her. I will never know what the female orgasm feels like - i imagine it's a bit like the fireworks at Alexandra Palace - but i strongly identify with that woman's joy when the band comes back in after Neko's vocalization there.

    very nice indeed!
