GELAREH POUR – INTO MY ARMS – The Vampire's Wife

Gerlareh Pour

Vicki from Melbourne, Australia, sent my husband this truly lovely version of his song ‘Into My Arms’ by Gelareh Pour, sung in Farsi—such a gorgeous thing. Thank you Vicki and Gelareh for brightening our corner! Much love to you both, Susie x

TIME AFTER TIME, LITTLE JIMMY SCOTT

Look at this heart-breaking piece of film of Little Jimmy Scott singing Time After Time and giving his thoughts on what a song is meant to be. He is a vast talent and a beautiful man; we met him at my husband’s Meltdown Festival in London in 1999.

TO DIE BY YOUR SIDE

I heard this wonderful version of The Smiths classic song "There is a Light That Never Goes Out" by the brilliantly ebullient Dum Dum Girls on the DJ Lonny’s amazing Cover to Cover on Radio Lewes this week. What a great show! What a superb song! What a joyful cover! ‘To die by your side is pleasure and a privilege’ indeed!

THERE IS A LIGHT THAT NEVER GOES OUT

What a brilliant piece of pop magic! There is a Light that Never Goes Out by The Smiths. A gorgeous lunatic lyric with a swooningly joyful melody. I love this song. I love this band. We adore The Smiths here at The Vampire’s Wife.
