All the love you sought
Exposing you
I am torn
Dark spell, I crave you so
I wanna live, but you just won't let me go
We laid there in starlight
Woke-up in the storm
Am I yours?
I'm not sure
Dark spell, you cast me so
I wanna live, but you just won't leave me alone
And the wheel keeps turning
I can't get enough
And the flame keeps burning
And I surrender love
They say the eyes are like
Windows to the soul
I ain't so sure
I see through yours
My borders are broken raw
I just can't protect, can't protect them no more
And the wheel keeps turning
I can't get enough
And the flame keeps burning
And I surrender love
Turn your back on another world
Promise yourself "never again"
The wheel keeps turning
But I can't get enough
And the sun keeps burning
And I surrender love
Doves are an English indie rock band, formed in Manchester in 1998. The band is composed of twin brothers Jez (guitar, vocals) and Andy Williams (drums, vocals), and Jimi Goodwin (lead vocals, bass, guitar). Additionally, the band employs Martin Rebelski, as a touring and session musician on keyboards. The band released five studio albums between 2000 and 2020, three of which reached #1 on the UK album charts. A compilation album, The Places Between: The Best of Doves, was released in April 2010.
Doves went on hiatus in 2010. During this time, Goodwin released his first solo album, Odludek (2014), while the Williams brothers regrouped as Black Rivers. In December 2018, Doves announced they were ending their hiatus by performing for the Teenage Cancer Trust at London's Royal Albert Hall on 29 March 2019. Further festivals, including some dates with Noel Gallagher, were subsequently announced. The band released two new songs: "Carousels" and "Prisoners", in June and July 2020 respectively. Their fifth studio album The Universal Want was released in September 2020.
Meaning "full of awe"! Agreed. Although not all that simple
I thought it was a cover of Rapture from the opening notes.
VERY-VERY!
I'm a little unclear; are they underrated or not?
What in the name of all that is holy is "post-Britpop"?
It is a sugar-coated cereal, by the Post Cereal Co.
Loving the bass line.
If this song were more widely known it would be one of the best bass lines in rock history!
Meaning "full of awe"! Agreed. Although not all that simple
Well said. Why anybody comes to RP to hear a song like this, and decide that it is "simply awful" boggles me. It's like they're going out of their way to make sure everybody knows they have a problem with music that doesn't conform to some predetermined model.
Loving the bass line.
Reminds me of the Clash
Love your work! 😘
I agree!
The first five notes of this song's vocal melody sound very much like those of like "Rapture". The instrumental intro (or "lick") in this song doesn't really sound anything like that of like prior song, certainly not "note-for-note".
