about

The 1994 movie 'The Crow' was released on this day, 25 years ago. Based on James O'Barr's comic of the same name, it had a lasting effect on a whole generation, including myself.

The soundtrack was of particular note, especially 'Burn', written by The Cure specifically for the movie.

I couldn't resist quickly knocking together a short cover of it to mark the day. Given the spirit in which it was created (ie. very roughly!), it's a freebie, and it's only available on Bandcamp.

Lyrics:

"Don't look don't look", the shadows breathe,
whispering me away from you.
"Don't wake at night to watch her sleep,
you know that you will always lose,
this trembling
adored
tousled
bird mad girl..."

But every night I burn
Every night I call your name
Every night I burn
Every night I fall again

"Don't talk of love", the shadows purr,
murmuring me away from you.
"Don't talk of worlds that never were,
the end is all that's ever true.
"There's nothing you can ever say
Nothing you can ever do..."

Still every night I burn.
Every night I scream your name.
Every night I burn.
Every night the dream's the same.

Every night I burn,
waiting for my only friend.
Every night I burn,
waiting for the world to end

"Just paint your face", the shadows smile,
slipping me away from you.

"Oh it doesn't matter how you hide,
we'll Find you if we're wanting to.
So slide back down and close your eyes.
Sleep a while,
You must be tired..."

But every night I burn.
Every night I call your name.
Every night I burn.
Every night I fall again.
Every night I burn,
scream the animal scream.

Every night I burn.

Dream the crow black dream.
