Mountain Goats, The - Nine Black Poppies Lyrics
When I got home I meant to give you some sweet chrysanthemum
The wind chimes were ringing all wrong and you were standing
In the doorway singing along
And I tried to remember how nice it had been
A long long time ago
I honestly could not remember
And a package came for you today, from the hunan province
The postmark burning jet black in the summer sun
Someone was changing. someone was changing from the inside out
And I turned around to face you.
Sweet peas in the garden, all in full bloom
And I thought I heard the traces of an old song murmuring in the room
Like a half-remembered conversation, I let it slip away
I honestly could not remember
And a package came for you today, from the hunan province
The postmark burning jet black in the summer sun
Someone was changing. someone was changing from the inside out
And I turned around to face you

Mountain Goats, The Nine Black Poppies Comments
This is possibly the angriest performance I’ve ever seen and I’m in love with it
This blurry little two and a half minute clip is one of my favourite live performances of any song, ever.
It's "Nina Simone covering I Put a Spell on You, live" level good.
This should have ended with a guitar being smashed
His Emotions.... UGH.
more like nine black poopies
So how is your summer break going? Middle school is big step, are you nervous about it?
Thanks for sharing this! It's a great track, and this perfomance is particularly awesome.
This is fucking impressive.
