One of my most favorite [love] songs… This is Cat Power covering Nina Simone’s version of Wild Is The Wind.
It is definitely my most preferred rendition:
Cat Power – Wild Is The Wind (mp3)
You touched me, I hear the sound
of mandolins. You kissed me,
With your kiss my life begins…Like a leaf clings to a tree,
Baby, please, cling to me.Love me, love me. Say you do.
Let me fly away with you…
So beautifully represents the hunger for, almost obsession with that person you so completely and absolutely love… Someone that nobody else could ever compare to… It is beautiful, passionate yet there is a sad undertone, almost as if the singer is pleading with their lover to hang on… Or at least that is my interpretation…
