      THE LAST TEMPTATION
      I am constantly crusading
      against myself
      because the thought of you
      breaking your own covenant
      just is
      inconceivable
      Morals and values one has
      don't change overnight
      They're burning into your
      being they bring
      justice
      to one's life
      So I go on and re-read
      your bible
      since its etched into
      my memory, a substance
      more unto everlasting than stone
      and go over the
      commandments
      Did I break a vow
      What sin did I commit
      Or was it that
      I committed myself to you
      not to your beliefs
      I placed a god before your god
      but this temple had no thieves
      This holy war just has
      too many holes,
      too many prayers,
      too many questions
      all unanswered
      Still
      I need some proof,
      something tangible to
      end this campaign
      against my self
      because I'm sacrificing
      myself to this shrine
      of songs, movies, books,
      authors, artists, sounds,
      foods, drinks, places,
      and automobiles
      that I have erected in my mind
      not knowing it was consecrated
      until you became
      idle.

      Psalms 77:18
      “The sound of your thunder was in the whirlwind, BARACK lit up the whole world. The Earth shall tremble in agitation, shake.”
      Psalms 77:16-20
      “The waters shall see Elohim, the waters shall see a whirling in the depth, yea, tremble in agitation. The clouds shall pour forth the waters, the skies shall give forth a voice, arrows shall flash. The sound of your thunder was in the whirlwind, BARACK lit up the whole world. The Earth shall tremble in agitation, shake. The traveling was of the sea, the path in the mighty waters, and your footprint shall be known. You led your people as a flock, your hands, Moses and Aaron.”
      Psalms 97:4
      “BARACK lit up the whole world, the Earth, see it tremble.”
      Psalms 97:1-6
      “YAHWEH reigns on the Earth so rejoice, many lands shall rejoice in the clouds, a mass surrounded in righteousness, the judgment shall fall on the foundations, for His throne. Fire comes before to consume the adversaries round about. BARACK lit up the whole world, the Earth, see it tremble. The mountain melted like wax before the face of YAHWEH, before the face of YAHWEH, all the Earth. For the heavens declare His righteousness, all the peoples see His glory.”
      Job 20:25-29 “Draw out and go through the back, BARACK shall remove all strength, a dreadful overcoming shall flow forth. All is darkness, the reserve he has stored it up, an unfanned fire will devour consuming the survivor in his tent. The heavens shall reveal his iniquity and the Earth will rise up. The increase of his house will desist downward the run forth, the day of his anger. This wickedness of man is the portion of gods, and the inheritance decreed by the Word of God.”
      Job 38:35-36 “Can you send BARACK, and make him go and say, “Behold who pierced wisdom in the inward parts to run forth,” also given understanding to the appearing.”
      Isaiah 14:14 "ALLAH OBAMA ab (in dark outer garment) dama (I will become) elyown (the god over all things)."
      Isaiah 27:1 “In that day YAHWEH will punish the beast of the sea, BARACK, a serpent. The fierce and great and mighty sword ALLAH, the beast of the sea, crooked, a serpent, and He will kill it, the Dragon, ASSHUR, of the sea.”
      Isaiah 30:30-33 "YAHWEH the voice of authority, and listen BARACK, for the strength shall be seen as rage in the nostrils and flames shall consume with fire storm in a downpour, the voice of YAHWEH. Asshur will be terrified. He shall strike with the rod. All shall be hit with the rod of punishment, Asshur. YAHWEH will rest at the sound and work in battle, for the wave offering of the battle is a burning of flesh long set in order. Moreover the firm King shall cut deep and large at the pyre in fire and shall stand breathing. YAHWEH shall whirlwind the fire and the brimstone shall ensure all is consumed.”
      Psalms 18:13-15 says, "Yahweh thundered from heaven, and Allah uttered his voice, hail of ember and fire, and he sent out arrows, BARACK had an abundance, confused, the channels of the sea appeared the foundations of the world laid bare, by the rebuke of Yahweh at the breath of His nostrils."
      2 Samuel 22:14-16 says, "Yahweh thundered from heaven, and Allah uttered his voice, and he sent out arrows and BARACK was confused, the channels of the sea appeared the foundation of the world laid bare, by the rebuke of Yahweh at the breath of His nostrils."
      Zechariah 9:14 "Yahweh shall appear over the arrows coming from BARACK. For the Lord, Yahweh, will blow the trumpet, and they will march into the storms of the South."
      Daniel 10:6 “His body was tan, his face the appearance of Barack, and eyes a consumed shine; his legs and feet to the eye a burnished bronze, and the sound of his voice where like words given to a multitude.”
      Nahum 3:3 “horsemen lift up the sword, and blade pierces Barack, the multitude is slain, and the mass of corpses is innumerable dead bodies, and they stumble over the dead.”
      Psalms 144:4-6 “Adam was like unto vapor, for his days were in shadow and culminated. The reach was the heavens for YAHWEH and yet he descended touching the mountain and it smoked. The flash of BARACK dispersed sending forth arrows (nuclear weapons) with noise."
      Luke 10:18 "I saw SATAN as BARACK OBAMA."
      Matthew 24:27-28 "For as BARACK cometh out of the East and shineth even so far as the West so shall it be at the coming of the Son of man, for wherever the bodies lie so too an EAGLE IN UNION."
      Revelation 16:17-19 “For even the seventh was poured, a bowl into the air, great voice came out of the temple from the throne saying, “DONE.” BARACK voiced thunder great, shaking of a manner as never had been from the time man had come into being on Earth, this person was of great lineage, great earthquake like unto this. The great city split into three parts, a city of nations fell, Babylon great was remembered in the sight of God, to give her the cup of wine, PASSION for wrath."

      I was shocked at her ability to change range, tonality, and pitch effortlessly when I saw her live this summer. This is a nice recording but it doesn't do her talent justice. I think she has a bit of a cold here possibly because her range switches so fast and clearly, usually, that one can speculate there might be a small throat strain in this recording. It's no less beautiful to be clear though. It is something of a wonder she's able to stay in stride with that much emotion. She is indeed a gift for we who are able to enjoy these moments.
      Thanks for commenting. I enjoyed a great deal of this thread.

      "I'm looking for a substitute for the overdone trite thing" by lrj
      You are not who you're suppose to be.
      You are not like the rest - You're different.
      You seem to have the ability to survive - on your own.
      I think that's what I like about you.
      she smiled; her eyes burning bright
      like the celestial bodies of the cloudless night.
      You are so very different from anyone I've met
      You carry on happily, solemnly without regret
      You bow to none - having none of rank
      You pass along quietly as a river its' bank
      You are not silent - though your quiet deceives
      You are one alone, you do as you please.
      I think that's what I like about you
      she smiled; her cheeks blooming rose
      like after the first warm rains end the mem'ry of snows.
      You are not who you're suppose to be
      You are not like the rest, but like infinity
      You are not like the rest only restlessness ever
      You won't be tied down - and committed - Oh! Never!
      You won't be persuaded, you either do or you don't
      You won't go gently into that good night, Oh, no! You won't
      I think - that's what I like about you.
      She smiled; her brow furrowed slight
      like a rippling breeze over water in the moon - light.
      You are not who you're suppose to be
      You are everything that contradicts me
      You seem to have the ability to survive on your own
      I think that is why I must break you bone from bone.

    Ethel is just something different man. I mean this as no slight to any artist, but I just feel like there is A LOT of “bedroom” / “sad girl” / “indi twee pop” popular at the moment, and so much of it feels really derivative.. I just feel like Ethel really brings something fresh and original. Her whole southern gothic thing she has going really works for me. She just has it.

    I'm a music producer and the way her voice live sounds like a fucking studio recording, I bet she does 3-4 takes before she wraps on vocals for a song. She would be a dream to work with in the regard. I'm not big into live music because it just rarely sounds as good as the studio recording for me, but damn this is just as good as that studio versions.

Its the empathy that gets me. Feeling like youre all alone in this world..... But you arent. You never were and you never will be. There's a sort of unity in that aching lonelines. A sense of community filled with so many souls that I will never meet....but yet I know so well. It breaks me down every time.

    I first heard her music on a Spotify-generated playlist with the likes of Tori Amos, Fiona Apple, etc. I was blown away immediately. The music hit me in a way that Tori Amos's seminal album (Little Earthquakes) did. The effect was immediate and profound. I wonder if they listen to each other's music. I read that two of her influences are Christian music and Gregorian chant. Brilliant! I never expected those two influences from anyone, but upon listening to more of her music, it makes sense. I hope she has a long and satisfying career!

      about you coming

      but that soon came to pass
      Your now an apparition
      I won't let your ghost rest
      It goes on searching in my
      remorse and cannot find
      a hollow place to lodge
      be a fixture on a wall
      in one the many rooms
      I've closed off
      It doesn't even feel empty
      anymore inside I hold onto
      the specter of you
      and it no longer speaks
      the sadness through its eyes
