King Crimson ~ I Talk To The Wind ~

~ ♫♪♫ ~

Said the straight man to the late man Where have you been? I've been here and I've been there And I've been in between

I talk to the wind My words are all carried away I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear

I'm on the outside looking inside What do I see? Much confusion, disillusion All around me...

I talk to the wind My words are all carried away I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear

You don't possess me Don't impress me Just upset my mind Can't instruct me or conduct me Just use up my time

I talk to the wind My words are all carried away I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear

~ ♫♪♫♪♫ ~

I talk to the wind My words are all carried away ~ ~ ~ I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear

Said the straight man to the late man Where have you been? I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between

King Crimson, I talk to the wind, In the Court of the Crimson King, 1969

[ithinkimightbeagoose]

I have gay Converse, a spell jar and a complete and utter lack of a moral compass

but I have a necklace that I haven't taken off for about a month and counting, shitty piano skills, and a maybe delusional friendship with the WIND so I think that counts for something

Progtober Fest day 21: prog lyrics that really speak to you

The entirety if Get Em Out By Friday cos the UK is a nightmare and when I moved to London from Italy the rent market gave me ptsd

The chorus in I Talk To The Wind, because I *do* and my words *are* all carried away and the wind does *not* hear because of course it *cannot* hear

There’s someone in my head but it’s not me (Pink Floyd - Brain Damage) because idk who the fuck I am yet and some shit I come up with definitely comes from somewhere else, I don’t claim it

And every single door that I walk through brings me back, back here again (Genesis - The Chamber Of 32 Doors) that whole song is just perfect

King Crimson Issues Hybrid Version of “I Talk to the Wind,” Making a Dated Song Even More So

In updating and hybridizing King Crimson’s “I Talk to the Wind,” producer Alex “Stormy” Mundy has made the track even more dated than it already was.

Grafting Greg Lake’s vocals from In the Court of the Crimson King over a wispy early backing track by guitarist Robert Fripp, drummer Michael Giles and multi-instrumentalist Ian McDonald, who adds mellotron, flute and other period relics to the ballad, Mundy’s made what comes off as a parody of “Stairway to Heaven.”

I talk to the wind/the wind does not hear, Lake sings.

Most of Crimson’s material was so ahead of its time, it still sounds futuristic today. The Court version of “I Talk to the Wind” is one of the rare exceptions and this “Stormy Mundy” Frankenstein version is better heard as a lark than as a tongue in aspic.
