The Pretenders - Hymn to Her

Let me inside you
Into your room
I've heard it's lined
With the things you don't show
Lay me beside you
Down on the floor
I've been your lover
From the womb to the tomb
I dress as your daughter
When the moon becomes round
You be my mother
When everything's gone
And she will always carry on
Something is lost
But something is found
They will keep on speaking her name
Somethings change
Some stay the same
Keep beckoning to me
From behind that closed door
The maid and the mother
And the crone that's grown old
I hear your voice
Coming out of that hole
I listen to you
And I want some more
I listen to you
And I want some more
She will always carry on
Something is lost
But something is found
They will keep on speaking her name
Some things change
Some stay the same
She will always carry on
Something is lost
But something is found
They will keep on speaking her name
Some things change
Some stay the same
Let me inside you
Into your room
I've heard it's lined
With the things you don't show
Lay me beside you
Down on the floor
I've been your lover
From the womb to the tomb
I dress as your daughter
When the moon becomes round
You be my mother
When everything's gone
And she will always carry on
Something is lost
But something is found
They will keep on speaking her name
Some things change
Some stay the same
She will always carry on
Something is lost
But something is found
They will keep on speaking her name
Some things change
Some stay the same
And she will always carry on
Something is lost
But something is found
They will keep on speaking her name
Some things change
Some stay the same
Epicureanism in the finest sense of the word.
True talent and originality.

Review of her playing at Glastonbury a few days ago
"We don’t have to get fat / We don’t have to get old / We don’t have to fade to black,” Chrissie Hynde told the crowd in her idiosyncratic smooth roar. It’s off the new album, Relentless. “I like the definition,” she told NME last month, “showing no abatement of intensity. It’s the life of the artist. You never retire. You become relentless.”

It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche
