It's Only Time The Magnetic Fields

Title: It’s Only Time

Artist: The Magnetic Fields

Album: i

Composer: Stephin Merritt

Genre: Alternative

Why would I stop loving you a hundred years from now?
It’s only time. It’s only time.
What could stop this beating heart once it made a vow?
It’s only time. It’s only time.
If rain won’t change your mind, let it fall,
The rain won’t change my heart at all.

Lock this chain around my hand. Throw away the key.
It’s only time. It’s only time..
Years, falling like grains of sand, mean nothing to me.
It’s only time. It’s only time.
If snow won’t change your mind, let it fall.
The snow won’t change my heart, not at all.

(I’ll walk your lands,) I’ll walk your lands,
(and swim your sea,) And swim your sea.
Marry me. Marry me.
(And in your hands,) And in your hands,
(I will be free,) I will be free.
Marry me.
Marry me.

Why would I stop loving you a hundred years from now?

Get it while it’s hot!

I’m always caught by the tryptich of disconnect presented by Florence Welch: the voice doesn’t sound like it fits in a figure so ethereal, the music seems like it belongs to an older soul than the one before my eyes and the girl herself seems too delicate to have so much talent inside of her. And yet…

“Terrified horses, up on their hind legs, hoofing a storm of frogs.
Frenzied springboks, capering their exasperations against frogs that were tickling them.
Storekeepers, in London, gaping at frogs that were tapping on their window panes.
We shall pick up an existence by its frogs.
Wise men have tried other ways. They have tried to understand our state of being, by grasping at its stars, or its arts, or its economics. But, if there is an
underlying oneness of all things, it does not matter where we begin, whether with
stars, or laws of supply and demand, or frogs, or Napoleon Bonaparte. One measures a circle, beginning anywhere.”
—Charles Fort, in Lo! (1931)

Sasquatch 2011: Sharon Van Etten, Live In Concert → npr.org

A fun set from indie duchess Sharon Van Etten. What I like best about her music is that the songs aren’t explosive numbers that leap out at you the moment they hit your ears. They simmer in the background, building themselves cocoons out of thoughts and memories until they emerge, unexpected but fully formed.

Set List:

  • Peace Sign
  • Save Yourself
  • One Day
  • Don’t Do It
  • Tornado
  • Tell Me
  • All I Can
