Shelleyan Orphan - Epitaph, Ivy & Woe (The Tube 1987) Musica Britannica

More like old English 'country' music...but, labeled as 'hippie goth' 'granola-goth', alternative, blah, blah...


Just gorgeous music, sadly beautiful, C. Crawley passed a few years ago.




"Oh loved where they lie cold in the snow. By the cherub now headless by green overgrown. Epitaph, epitaph ivy and woe.

O sleeping lion curled deep within prayer. Until a day come and repose you there. Valhalla, Valhalla, ivy and woe. In loving memory o Victoriana Arise within Valhalla's hall. Catacomb vaulted tomb beloved's sleeping room. Charnel house, ivy and woe. O cradling angel been raising the child. By the cherub now headless by the grey yawning grave. Epitaph, Epitaph ivy and woe. Silent white a destiny to die. O sleeping lion lie cold in the snow. Until a day come and repose you there ... Valhalla, Valhalla ivy and woe"

Of the 'geography' of Elphame/ Fairholme/Deidholme

One: The Waters: sensually inviting, yet seemingly full of 'creatures'.  Waterfalls that unreasonably fill many acres of land with shallow water, with the exception of 'gushing'. 'thick', misty waterfalls... Twa: The Earth, Subterranean pits that fill with water on command, the dissipate.  Serpents that appear and disappear on command. Three: Rainbow and Blinding circles or orbs which empower 'carriages/cars' with high velocity speed to different parts of Elf-home. Unrelated:  Highly Attractive 'people' with some sort of 'witching'... We neither care if you understand or believe...these 'things' are of 'OUR OWN'...
