Mark Lanegan avait déjà fête Noël en 2012. Le disque s’appelle Mark Lanegan Does Christmas 2020 et est hors de prix sur le marché de l’occasion. Gentleman, Lanegan ressort ce disque agrémenté d’autres reprises.
Produit par Alain Johannes, ce disque de Noël montre l’amour porté par Lanegan aux Everly Brothers et à Roky Erickson. On retrouve, en 2020, le Lanegan d’avant les Queens Of The Stone Age. On retrouve celui avait qui enregistrait par miracle Whiskey For The Holy Ghost en 1993 et qui nous avait achevait en 2001 avec Field Songs.
Mark Lanegan – Burn The Flames
Here I sit
A vampire at my piano
The flames burn glaringly higher
And the eyes that stare
through the darkness
Though they have no form
There’s no need for alarm
So burn, so burn
Burn the flames higher and higher
So burn, burn the flames
Never to expire
Here I sit
A skeleton at my organ
The candles in my candelabra
burning hellishly, hellish hell
And the laughter unending echoes
through the haunted house
A little Christmas spirit
Ghostly haunting deadly spirit
Every creature is stirring
Even the mouse
So burn, so burn
Burn the flames higher, higher, higher, and higher
So burn, burn the flames
Never to expire
So burn
Burn the flames higher, higher, higher, and higher
So burn, burn the flames
Never to expire
Here I sit myself at my instruments
Here they sit at their instruments
And the music fills and fills
Terrifies, horrifies, forever scares
The children of the night
What music we make
So burn, so burn
Burn the flames higher and higher
So burn, burn the flames
Never to expireDiscographie
