Re: Doire 101: NATIONAL FINAL!!!!! (& C10 and AE entries)

Revealing now Doire's entry for Absolutely Everybody. I have 27 wonderful entries to choose from, but I've decided to go with one that, though is not my personal favourite (though it's very high up there), it is the one I want to represent Doire on the biggest stage of all.

To celebrate 100 editions, I present to you:



::doi The xx - Angels ::doi

PS: The Doire NF is still open. Please don't make me beg.​

Re: Doire 102: Hozier - Take Me To Church

So, I've just made a rare entry change (sorry again, Mozz). Ive loved this artist and song for ages, and the video finally came out today (which I only just noticed on my facebook feed), so it seems like the perfect time to send it :D
The video's really dark and saddening, and while Im not trying to push a political agenda here, I think the message is powerful. In the artist's own words, the video “references the recent increase of organised attacks and torturing of homosexuals in Russia, which is subsequent to a long, hateful, and oppressive political campaign against the LGBT community. The song was always about humanity at its most natural, and how that is undermined ceaselessly by religious organisations and those who would have us believe they act in its interests. What has been seen growing in Russia is no less than nightmarish, I proposed bringing these themes into the story"
That being said, enjoy!
Hozier - Take Me To Church

Lyrics:
My lover's got humour
She's the giggle at a funeral
Knows everybody's disapproval
I should've worshipped her sooner
If the Heavens ever did speak
She is the last true mouth piece
Every Sunday's getting more bleak
A fresh poison each week
We were born sick, you heard them say it
My church offers no absolutes
She tells me 'worship in the bedroom'
The only heaven I'll be sent to
Is when I'm alone with you
I was born sick, but I love it
Command me to be well
Amen. Amen. Amen
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
If I'm a pagan of the good times
My lover's the sunlight
To keep the Goddess on my side
She demands a sacrifice
To drain the whole sea
Get something shiny
Something meaty for the main course
That's a fine looking high horse
What you got in the stable?
We've a lot of starving faithful
That looks tasty
That looks plenty
This is hungry work
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me my deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
No masters or kings when the ritual begins
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
Only then I am human
Only then I am clean
Amen. Amen. Amen
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life​
