Slowdive’s version of Golden Hair, originally composed by Syd Barrett. The lyrics are an adaptation of James Joyce’s poem, from the collection Chamber Music.

Pure brilliance.

Lean out your window, golden hair
I heard you singing in the midnight air
my book is closed, I read no more
watching the fire dance, on the floor
I’ve left my book, I’ve left my room

For I heard you singing through the gloom
singing and singing, a merry air
lean out the window, golden hair.
