I Blame You Not – Mara Carlyle

Posted on 3 April 2007. Filed under: Accidental Records, Beauty, Electonica, Film, Heartbreak, Incredible, Love, Mara Carlyle, Music, Voice, Weird, Weirdness |

So, I’ve not posted a video before, but I could think of no better way of making you look at this. It’s amazing. I love her voice so much. Look for Baby Bloodheart also. Then buy her album ‘The Lovely’ as it is incredible in its entirety. Also visit her micebase for an excellent cover of Hey by the Pixies only with totally different words and stuff.

She’s got a voice that could rip your heart in two and she tends to talk about that process in her songs.

Check this out for the best words in the best order:

Once I knew someone who was so in love with someone
She cried blood-red lovehearts from her eyes
Her love knew well how her love could swell
She was Baby Bloodheart
And he was her beau…

And her cheeks glowed red with tears she shed
And her lips shake with the love they make
She could explode, she feels it so
And he knows…and he knows
He’s Baby Bloodheart’s beau

Once I heard Baby and her lover loving to each other
This is what I heard….he said:
“Stay with me, Baby Baby
Let me be everything your Bloodheart needs
Cos I love you so…”

She said:
“Oh my god…I can hardly breathe
this love is bursting through my heart and lungs
I’m afraid this love may lift me off this bed
So hold me down!”

Her cheeks glowed red with tears she shed
And her lips shake with the love they make
She could explode, she feels him so
And he knows…and he knows
He’s Baby Bloodheart’s beau…

Then listen to her sing and hear her voice bursting through her heart and lungs as she sings about it. The other version of the video is more fun, but the voice doesn’t carry as well on the audio.
So there you go. Eat more records.

    Alabaster Crippens doesn't entirely believe in objective truth, therefore he can neither confirm or deny the accuracy of any statement, image or impression caused by, or displayed on, these pages of the so called 'internet'. He does however not want to get sued, even if the lawyers, legal system, and the concept of jurisprudence doesn't exist. Therefore if you believe the nonsense posted on here you do so entirely at your own risk. In other words: Don't sue me 'cause I might not mean it. Basically, anything you hear from anyone is unreliable, so if you want the 'truth' you need the perspectives of as many people as you can get..ideally people who are trustworthy and close to the particular 'truth' you wish to inspect. If you start trusting idiots with silly (and obviously made up) names then you're developing some kind of problem. Check your sources, examine their own politcal (or other) motivation, remember that anything people say is opinion unless you are certain that they speak the 'truth'. Even your own eyes can lie. Trust me on that one. Or don't..it doesn't bother me. Finally, everything written here is, to the best of my knowledge written by me and I reserve my right to be recognised as the author of these works. Any input from other sources should be clearly shown, if you note a mistake or anything..tell me..I'll try and sort out the problem. Please ask me if you want to use anything for commercial reasons...I probably won't mind but I need to know I'm not supporting anything I don't want to support. This is an attempt at a legal notice written without legal knowledge. Just follow the principles, I think most of you get what I mean, even if it won't stand up in a court of law. Just be polite you know...like in the good ole days.
