Peter Doherty - Salome Lyrics
In the coldest, the coldest of nights
Of fire and light to warm my bones
I've had enough of the dreadful cold
And from the flames of his silent maid
The head of John the Baptist on a plate
And in the morning, shaken and disturbed
Among the soft white fur
See all the dust dance in the morning light
Sets the room alight
And by the telly of his silent maid
Well, I sit up amazed as she dances and demands
The head of Isadora Duncan on a plate
And his silent maid
I stand before her amazed as she dances and demands
The head of John the Baptist on a plate
In the coldest, the coldest of nights
Of fire and light to warm my bones
And I've had enough of the dreadful cold
And from the flames of his silent maid
I stand before her amazed

thanks for sharing all these great songs from Pete Doherty, It's HEALING ENERGY !
brilliant song -i LOVE this song, this voice, this wonderful lyrics.. GENIUS!
♥ This is magical to me… In love! ♥
beautiful music. big peter doherty is a lyrical genius. really connect to peter man is best song writer of his generation in my eyes
When I first heard this, I realized he read Oscar Wilde! Also at times like these, there's such a stillness about Peter when he is solo...
stillness is a great word, exactly that
He read Oscar Wilde, Coleridge, Joyce... you name it, his lyrics are full of literary references.
Rebecca H. Salome is in the Bible dumbass
viajesbertasio I've read all those ppl wanna be my groupie?
fulgurating
When I listen to John Martin, John Renbourne,Isaac Guillory, JJ Cale, I find it embarrasing that people think this is talent?
+nickyg sunhouse instead of comparing other peoples work, maybe you should try to compose and write something yourself and then maybe you will understand what talent is all about
+Sniffzoer hahaha, good point, and I am always ready to apologise or admit I was wrong. So sorry. Having listened to more of him, I have to say that his playing is better than average, he has his own style and his vocals and lyrics are very honest.
So, that being said, I must retort by informing you that I have been playing acoustic guitar for approx 25 years, maybe more. I have been influenced mainly by such artists as Isaac Guillory, sadly passed, which if you don't listen to any of the other ones, I urge you to check him out. He literally turned the folk/blues curcuit upside down!! LOL
Neil Young, JJ Cale, Tim and Jeff Buckly, Bert Jansh. Mainly solo acoustic players as from experience for one man with an acoustic guitar to keep an audience silent for two forty min sts is very hard!
Someone just shared a whole gig by I am hounered to say my friend and part tutor Isaac Guillory, Live at Bristol.....? Anyway I will bang it on google share.
Again, sorry if my comment offended, it was somewhat tackless.
Ive written about four songs, (with lyrics) and maybe 30 inst, DnB, Hip Hop, chill step etc...........

ENERJEE risn no one gives a shit Pete Doherty is a legend
You were going good for a while there but then your ENERJEE started trailing off ....... oh. :(
instead of droning on about it why don't you 'bang' one of your 4 songs on youtube, in the form of an actual video of an actual performance rather than a detailed description of how you would have performed it.
You're allowed your opinion. It's so personal what we like musically. Listened to Isaac Guillory as per your suggestion and he sounds a lot like James Taylor though a better player. He does the George Benson thing too which is cool (singing the lick he's playing).
This song is for me? :D
+Salome Shedania well, you seem to appear to him, demanding crazy stuff whenever he is high, shaken or disturbed :)
If that's you in the profile picture
Salome Shedania no
Lovely guitar and extraordinary perfomer
Lorenzo Dicembre Official so beautiful
