Morning Coffee Break - Bibio

Friday, one of the best days of the week for many reasons. For me it represents the obvious end to the work week but most importantly it is somewhat of a tradition for me and my husband to hang out and discover new music.  One of my favorite things is when he has found a gem of a song and plays it for me. Usually I look at him as if he is crazy and immediately tell him I do not approve.  Then time will pass and he will play it again and I say, “Wow, this is a great song, who is the artist?” That ususually follows up with a chuckle and a, “I have played this for you before and you did not like it.”  One of his “gem” songs is by Bibio called “Lovers' Carvings”. It starts out slow, but give it a minute and a half and the groove falls into place.  Happy Friday and enjoy!



Bibio – “Lovers' Carvings”, Ambivalence Avenue

Lovers' names, carved in walls
Overlap, start to merge
Some of them underneath
Maybe they appear
In graveyards
Maybe they fade away
Weathered and overgrown
Time has told
Meaningful hidden words
Suddenly appear, from the murk
Maybe they're telling us
That the end
Never was
Never will
The words have gone
But the meaning will never disappear
From the wall
