Miraculous | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Miracle performed by Mark Lanegan So simple and yet so beautiful.

For the longest time, I thought this was some random song Kurt sang (perhaps a side-project song with friends from The Vaselines) and have been searching in earnest since then. I just randomly came upon this song one day, and realized its not Kurt at all, and felt like a fool. However, this song is very melodic, and I can understand now that the Screaming Trees were definetly an influence on Nirvana. This song sounds like someone describing a vague dream they had when they were a child ... like someone having a fit of nostalgia. Everyone can relate to the lyrics and mold it to their own life, and at the same time, it seems painful and specific to the singer/songwriter. He had a sepcific purpose in mind while singing this song; To share how every person feels when they are at their lowest moments in life. This is one of those rare songs you could play at a eulogy, and everyone would shed at least one tear for the departed. beautiful beautiful song real soul that voice broken open torn perfect | Reviewer: minor gray ------ About the song Low performed by Mark Lanegan from the first notes of the hammond organ and guitar this song just drips with sweet saddness and loving soul . the lyrics poetic warm empty sad and darky sparkle like love and life its self that smokey fucking voice honest ....."have you ever been a skeleton low ..... dont you know about love" this song kills me ***** five stars Hit the City | Reviewer: Sandy Barron ------ About the song Hit The City performed by Mark Lanegan If there is a God and he is all-knowing and all-good, Hit the City would be a top-Forty hit.
