Album:

Track:
My review of Easy Come, Easy Go can be found (click here) on treblezine.comMarianne FaithfullEasy Come, Easy GoNaïve2009Throughout her elegantly infamous career, Marianne Faithfull has lived her life through songs with this creed: "Music is best when it's sexual…and if it's not there's something wrong." This is why I have adored her for so long. In my ears, Faithfull today is sexier than she ha

For those youngsters who only know Marianne Faithfull as a matronly, debauched rock icon, here's a shocker - Marianne as a 60s pop star. I have never seen a more beautiful picture of her. How incredibly alluring - it gives me chills.

A couple years ago my daughter was asked to contribute a few poems for some "zine" that came out quarterly, and since they were to appear in the Winter issue, it was suggested she write stuff that had to do with snow, or cold, or that sort of stuff. Three of them she wrote on her own, and they were utterly inspired - e.g.; "I wanted to write a poem about Winter / The only word it rhymes with i...

Essential 80's Tracks, Part 109

Artist:
-
Album:
-
Track:
Marianne Faithfull spent most of the 1970s strung out on heroin and hoovering coke, so when she dropped "Broken English" on the world in 1979, it knocked everyone on their ass. The angelic voice that sang "As Tears Go By" in the mid sixties was replaced by a haggard, bleak moan, every bit of earned over years of living on the streets and just trying to get high. The album is just unbelievably *...

Track:Truth Bitter Truth
One year older to be exact. I just had a birthday and I recall when I was much younger, the excitement with which I approached each birthday.That eventually just turned to indifference and now, I guess dread.I'm older than I ever intended to be. Older than I ever imagined I could be.Damn.People say that age doesn't matter that much anymore; 50 is the new 40, 40 is the new 30 etc. I don't thin...

The nastiest break-up song in rock history
-
Artist:
-
Album:
-
Track:
The lyrics are X-rated, vile, brilliant, violent and funny; the guitars are lacerating; the performance burns like a flamethrower. Nearly 30 years after it was written, no rock singer has come close to putting so much jealous rage and wounded poetry into six and a half minutes.

When Bob Dylan writes a song or poem about a woman, he doesn’t take kindly to being jilted. In 1976’s “Sara,” for example, he begged his estranged wife Sara Lownds to come back to him by reminding her of all the time he spent “staying up for days in...

I have a great wig. It's long and blond and reminescent of either Claudia Schiffer or a young and nubile Marianne Faithfull. Whenever I need a Halloween costume, I just grab a hot dress, boots and put some Fekkai glossing cream on the wig. Who cares if I do it every year? S'fun. And our dear Marianne is undergoing treatment for breast cancer. Glad she caught it early. Wishing her well...
