Folk Lyrics in a Dangerous Time @folklyrics.bsky.social · Sep 22

Autumn Equinox Vol. 2
19/20 "Autumn: Marigold/Harvest Home"
www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciH9...

The first part (where this lyric is from) is written by Maddy Prior

The second has words by Henry Alford and music ("St. George’s, Windsor") by George Elvey

Backing vocal by Nick Holland and John Dochary

The golden summer sun is silver now
The fruit has fallen from the bough
The season moves to chesnut time
Toffee apples, treacle and mulled wine
Quilts and furs and woolens gay
You wrap around you
But the cold confounds you
On an autumn day

Maddy Prior

Seasons
18/20 "Sadness as a Gift"
adriannelenker.bandcamp.com/track/sadnes...

Written by Adrianne Lenker

Backing vocal by Nick Hakim, Josefin Runsteen and Mat Davidson

#MusicSky #folkmusic 🎶

Just leaning on the windowsill
You could write me someday
And I hope you will
We could see the
Sadness as a gift and still
The seasons go so fast
Thinking that this one
Was gonna last
Maybe the question
Was too much to ask

Adrianne Lenker

I’m always hesitant to use terms like two-tier policing but the double standards I witnessed today from the Met Police at the protest against the proscription of Palestine Action were staggering. You won’t believe the photos when I post them later today.

Off to London today to photograph people who the government has decided are terrorists for peacefully holding up cardboard signs opposing genocide. I sometimes feel like I’ve woken up in a dystopian alternate reality.

Got me at a the beginning of ‘come to think of it’ and then I got lost in that stuff.
Christmas however.., I want a SMEG! Just the cute little one you mentioned. Hey it’s doubtful. But you never know. :)
