Ann Radcliffe
Sometimes words just spew from me like I have no control. This song is about my feeling of connection to the other (more famous)! ‘Ann Radcliffe’ who was a Gothic Mysteries author 1764-1823
I think it’s time that I tried to get inside your head
Will I find a corelation of a life after death
Will there be something more to this feeling that I’ve lived before ooh
I am not alone I’ve always had a teacher
Do I stay anonymous or do I dare release her
She’s seeping from my pores I can’t keep this secret anymore ooh
I can’t stop the words can’t stop the rhymes
I’m driven by a force that comes from another place in time
Can you believe that she is burning bright inside of me ooh ooh ooh
Just barely breathing but feel so alive
Fine tuned and sharpened all my senses are on fire
Awakened by the high degree of the terror and the mystery ooh
It’s more than just a name favoured with grace
We are one and the same
Kindred spirit different face
Two hundred years between it feels supernatural to me ooh ooh ooh
Just barely breathing
Just barely breathing
A romance in a shroud
Byron would be proud
Just barely breathing
Just barely breathing
Ooh ooh
Lovely strong song. Very interesting approach. I could really feel the sentiment. I loved your voice and performance.
Thank you 😊
I really like this – great song, Ann – nice guitar work and voice is really good – love it.
Fabulous! I love those lyrics. Your guitar and vocal are strong and lovely as always
I loved listening to this. Well written and performed. Glides into the ears.
This is so good! A really interesting and original angle on the theme. I love the way you’ve hinted at a supernatural element in your connection with a writer of gothic novels. And a very strong performance (again!)
Another cracker Ann and an original angle for a lyric. Nicely mixed as well. Sounds good on my headphones!
Thank you, it was just made in one take using my phone.
PA system for vocals and just acoustic guitar.
Lovely song, enjoyed listening to it.
Good song Ann. I love the D running down to G. It’s a great little progression. Always strong vocals too 😁👍
Great song/clean vocal. Loved it
Great song and vocal. Really liked this one!
Oh, this is so good, what a brilliant perspective on the theme and, as always beautifully performed!
Great lyrics, melody and performance as usual. Very interesting twist on the theme
I like opening riff, which has a really ’60s feel to it. I think this is the third song of yours I’ve listened to and your voice has never sounded better, a bit Tricia Yearwood, maybe?
Good vocal…be lovely to have a 12 string Rickenbacker on it….enjoyed it
Awesome vocal expression! Love this.
Once again a super song from you Ann. I don’t think she’s more famous than you as I’d heard of you before this song but not her.
Jokes aside, lovely guitar thing going on and great lyrics so well performed
Excellent!
Somehow I can’t write folk myself but if I did I would hope to make it as rich and easy on the ear as you do. This is lovely. Well crafted. Mal
Wow. Just wow. Such a Stevie Nicks-like singing quality here and Fleetwood Mac-like tune. Really solid performance, Ann.
Fantastic again. Really like the approach you’ve taken using your connection to tell the story. Fabulous performance as always.
That’s got inside my head, Ann! Great idea and, though the melody & chords are relatively straightforward, there’s nothing boring about this song at all.
Oooh I wish I had your voice! I loved the passion in this song.
