Julia Holter - Maxim's II Lyrics
Tonight the birds are watching me
Do they have more important things to do?
What of hearts in diamonds?
Oh I don't understand
Will they eat a piece of cheese or will they talk?
When they're loud enough we can hear their words
By night we are inquisitory birds
Some nights we are asked if we ever tire
Of gazing at their heels and everyday desires
Remember every dewy tale written of their loves?
Compare them to the ones they touch in front of us
We do not dance a story for you
Gil Blas bored whispers awakening the beast in me
Find your feet
Drink some blood
Say it to my face
If you want to be starting something

Julia Holter Maxim's II Comments
i think i found my favorite song
Bleed For This.
i'm high as fvck listening to this.. and it feels amazing ☁
As a Broadcast fan, I adore this, Julia is carrying the candle for Trish (and Trish deserves to be remembered), whether she knows it or not (I bet she does).
Bro I've been looking for this song for so long lmfao. I used to listen to this so much in 2013 and I had it on my ipod but it malfucntioned and I forgot the name of the song and the lyrics. I only remembered the instrumental. Thank god my old desktop had the file for it.
a peculiar way of pronouncing words...i love it!
A song that leaves you in awe about Pazienza's amazing story.
Bleed for this
that hanging C7! poifict!!
Only just heard about Julia Holter, This is fantsatic, truly original talent and amazing songs.
Julia Holter’s new album ‘Aviary’ is out now on Domino Record Co. Listen & buy: http://smarturl.it/Aviary
More from Julia Holter on YouTube: http://smarturl.it/BestOfJuliaHolter
she reminds me of tori amos but with a better band. and a lil Nico from VU.
Up and coming music producer and this is something I wish to create it's genius
Julia Holter following on in the style of Laurie Anderson
Love love love this!
02:58 - 03:30 I'm dead
I'd like this to play when I hang myself
@J Eh?!?
@J Uh, pardon, you say what?
@J errr....
You can hear it, you can feel it, in those 55 seconds in the beginning, that magic is coming.
Bleed For This brought me here!
watched this movie yesterday, good movie, lead actor has talent, love the song at the end.
THIS washes over (through) you like a post coital dream - better than any beatles (i've known).
i have known genius ...AND THIS IS IT.
Exquisite.
Amazing track !
thought it was Deerhoof...
Cocteau twin sound to it, but I like the vocals better.
Just heard this at the end of "Bleed for this'.... wow, what a song!
Me too! Awesome movie and truly haunting tune! :)
MINIMAX Both the film and soundtrack were awesome!
is this El-P produced?
Me too! That movie has such an amazing soundtrack
Same here..thought it was The band Broadcast (the late Trish Keeneen on vocals)...
so much emotion is captured on song through intrumentation and vocals....to cool
Wooooot, very etheric!
Wow the instrumentals are beautiful.
It may sound strange but for some reason it reminded of the movie eraserhead.
this album reminds me of mulholland drive
clotair sea I could also see this as well saying that
I was literally laughing at something on twitter when that moment in the song (you know the moment) hits and my face just falls , like this song is so good I was dead for like a minute,, just in awe
Yeah totally understand that :o
listen to Portishead..sooo cool..hip hop heads recognize
Beautiful, haunting, nostalgic, and the video puts me in a quiet state of mind.
This is spiritual work.
I imagine Sylvia Plath having a lot in common with this artist.
you read my mind; was just checking her wikipedia page.
This track is bad ass
This song is about pigeons???
+Chevie Maliboo yes
This song is about our obsession with celebrities.
I want to walk deep into a dark ocean and drown to it's magnificence...
+Shim Shingles that's the most emo, pretentious shit i've ever heard
Shim Shingles your thought is beautiful
William Kentridge job......Maybe not!
This is the second song of her that reminds me of Charlotte Gainsbourg - I mean the voice. But saying that is just pointing out how good this is.
Great...this virtuose melange of a beautyfull voice and tricky soundarrangements carrying me on clouds ...love it !!!
I'm slowly becoming obsessed with her and her music. This reminds me so much of Broadcast.
Eh maybe the intro, but I cannot hear the Broadcast influence I'm sorry
@arcadeshift why are you sorry, no one's asking you to hear the Broadcast influence.
Alexander Aultman doesnt sound like broadcast
Very dream-like, I love this song!
Just recently discovered Julia… and wow.. i love the 'Loud City Song' CD
attacco alla pink floyd
I really love Julia Holter's music. When I recently watched Gigi I wanted to see some of the imagery along with this song so, I made a video that can be viewed on my channel. Please check it out.
looks like a HQ video after watching begotten
So does your comment.
does anyone have the lyrics for this?
this'll be the prettiest song of the year, then
Not really into this at the moment, but I can see myself really digging it at some point down the line.
jheeze, spoiler alert! (I hadn't heard this before)
wow. . .fully an unconscious aspect. . .her work is amazing
This is an amazing album - Julia Holter is getting better and better and the production is amazing. Up a notch. [Out of the bedroom maybe, haha]. I'd say the same for Julianna Barwick's new one too. Brilliant.
sounds like Trish singing in Ocarina of Time's Water Temple
nice song , boring video
Falling in love with Julia Holter...
Holy shit the production is through the roof... much respect to a Hip Hop listener.
sounds like Broadcast
i have to comment again. this is so beautiful.
wow. one of the best things i've heard in a long time. this is timeless.
Fell in love with this song right out of the box. After um, quite a few listens, I've observed that it is a musical palindrome...shimmering cymbals, verse, violin break, bridge, violin break, verse, shimmering cymbals....pretty cool concept!
top 10 songs of the year for me, definitely
remarkable
probably one of my favourite albums of 2013
...i don't know anything about her music....but it's so detailed...i love it
Third track from the album, very different than World and In the Green Wild but equally stunning. The new album will be brilliant!
yessssssss,!!!
Decent
I like it, I think it suggests an intimacy and personal relationship to the process of producing the song. It has a voyeuristic quality not unlike some of Julia Holter's music.
I get that there's a certain art to the presentation, but is this really better than a slideshow of the actual color photographs? Simplicity is appropriate at times!
This record should be great ! Can't wait.
