I wanna go to the sun Hold my life like I've never done But it's just the devil in me The devil that's calling as I come undone The sky is getting dark tonight Darker than the fear that's gonna pull us apart The beating is the sound of love The sound of love is beating like a fevered heart And it's the fire, the fire, the fire It's heavenly, heavenly Desire, desire Desire, desire I wanna lay in the dust The dust is gonna fall here when I lie God knows it's just the devil in me The devil that's taking my hand to the fire I never wanna leave you now Leave you like the sun is gonna disappear But it's just believing now Believing in my heart is what I've come to fear And it's the fire, the fire, the fire It's heavenly, heavenly Desire, desire Desire, desire I've got desire, desire I've got desire, desire And only the lonely Only the lonely fall Only the lonely Only the lonely fall Fall Oh, and I go to the fire But God knows it's the sound of, it's the sound of love It's the beat of my heart that you Finally beating, it's coming, coming, coming for you And it's just the devil in me It's just a door to the devil gathered in disguise Taking me by the hand And leading me, leading me off to the fire And it's the fire, the fire, the fire It's heavenly, heavenly Desire, desire Desire, desire You don't have to be lost (Desire, desire) You don't have to be lost (Desire, desire) You don't have to be lost (Desire, desire)
This is spectacular. Anna has a commanding vocal and her musicians are marvelous on this track. THIS is a great female vocalist. Her material is intriguing, intense and powerful.
Tano!! Se avessi la possibilità di nascere e morire di nuovo, lo rifarei solamente per vivere la mia vita insieme a te, per rimediare ad ogni mio errore, per cucire ogni tua ferita, e per cancellare ogni tua sofferenza in modo tale che il mondo possa conoscere solamente il tuo sorriso, che mi ha incendiato il cuore, come dal primo istante che ti ho visto!

I hear a lot of PJ in her and Nick Cave, and Siouxie too. She's definitely something unique, but her voice has a certain quality that reminds me of them. If someone said I looked like Giselle Bunchen, I wouldn't say, "No I don't, I'm very original!" I would say, "why thank you, I don't see it myself, though."
I'd like to see Anna paired with Coldplay on their 2011 tour . Brian Eno who's producing most of Mylo Xyloto likens her to Patti Smith back in her beginningss, I think Anna's more challanging and poetic, certainly more beautiful.
@AristobuloBr Exactly! One of my first impression about her is her precision in the musical phrases. reminds me the same precision of Teresa SAlgueiro. Great voice like mediterranean voices.
@@andrepereira744 You didn't need to make that comment. I've been listening to music since the 1970's and she is definitely one of the most amazing singer guitarists around. And that comparison comes from a person who has heard thousands of musical groups of all kinds.
@@littleghostfilms3012 Sure,no problem. Yet,being"one of the most amazing singer guitar around" is a diferent thing from being"the greatest guitarist",don't you think? What i meant was,there are thousands good female guitarists out there doing great music. Even to people who claim that they listen to music since forever,its impossible to know it all. That being said,i stick with my inicial comment,because there's no hate in it.
This song mesmerizes me. I have a painting on my wall I did of Anna singing this song from when she did the Live from Abbey Road studios show with Blondie. She has an almost terrifying beauty to her music, something unearthly and compelling. And she can play guitar on a level that leaves most others in the dust!

Sigue impresionándome el clasicismo del rock de esta persona. Y lo sencillo que parece. La estética lynchiana es lo de menos, el guiño a Roy Orbison y a la grandeza operística. Ella sola. Enorme.
That's strange because the only thing I hear is Anna Calvi. She's not Siouxsie, Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, David Bowie, PJ Harvey or Nick Cave. She's Anna Calvi. It's beyond me people have to compare her to 304893 other artists despite the fact she is very original. No wonder she's annoyed when she hears she's just like PJ over and over again...
If Florence Welch, Fiona Apple and PJ Harvey had a daughter ( its entirely possible, in my dreams), and that daughter had a growth spurt and aged like Benjamin Button this chick would be her. This song is pretty kick ass.
This song, the words, cool chord changes, rad squeeze box organ, the imagery and sheer bad assedness of Anna is pretty fucking rad. Just showed this to my old school goth wife and she was impressed, lot of Siouxsie Sioux influence.
What a talent, like a female Bowie. Shame she's totally lost the plot of late with her gender obsession and limp music. Don't think she'll ever hit these heights again
She's like a female David McComb, from the great long lost Australian band the Triffids - that's a compliment. The video is really obvious and corny. The song could lead to a much more imaginative interpretation
@smokeyGee @FanaticalMusicFan She DOES look prettier live (Seen her in Brixton) and male and female front-people looks are part of the deal in popular music.
