Seeing Afghan Whigs get this attention makes me so incredibly happy. This popped up on the NPR Facebook feed today. I hope they continue to enjoy themselves as much as they appeared to at the Bowery this week so we can see them together as long as possible. 

Better late than never, they have always been so underrated, it’s about time people other than their devoted (rabid?) fans (like me) heard how great they are.

Greg Dulli sings Leonard Cohen’s Paper Thin Hotel:

The walls of this hotel are paper-thin

Last night I heard you making love to him

The struggle mouth to mouth and limb to limb

The grunt of unity when he came in
 

I stood there with my ear against the wall

I was not seized by jealousy at all  

In fact a burden lifted from my soul

I heard that love was out of my control  

A heavy burden lifted from my soul

I heard that love was out of my control

I listened to your kisses at the door

I never heard the world so clear before

You ran your bath and you began to sing

I felt so good I couldn’t feel a thing

I stood there with my ear against the wall …

And I can’t wait to tell you to your face

And I can’t wait for you to take my place

You are the naked angel in my heart

You are the woman with her legs apart

It’s written on the walls of this hotel

You go to heaven once you’ve been to hell.

A heavy burden lifted from my soul

I heard that love was out of my control

Beautiful song and beautiful rendition.

Liefste
Er is niets dan
Nachtelijke tranen
Een stroom
Doorzeefd met
Momenten van
Zacht gesnik
En de gedachte aan
Bruggen en hoe
Daar vanaf te springen
En er een te kiezen met
Of zonder
Water eronder

Ik zeg: “Op de blote knietjes en ga maar es glimlachen naar het hemelgewelf.

Onze zonden zijn alleen

maar een vacuüm.

The Afghan Whigs - John the Baptist

One of my favorites of theirs. There’s a boot somewhere where Dulli says he can only sing it live in New Orleans cause it’s the only place he has the horns the song needs.

So true.

Beetje bang.

Is dat erg?
