The alternative Corner - 5 timeless tracks by female vocalists that are absolutely dreamy

Hey ghoulies,

I´m lounging on my friend Marco's couch, and the weekend has been great so far. Friday I went out with some friends to Noir, got massively drunk and had a blast. Yesterday, me and Marco went xmas light sightseeying in Lisbon (i shall post thepictures), had a long overdue coffee with my dearest patxi, had dinner in Portugalia and ended up going to the cinema to watch cloud atlas (i recommend it, it is a bit of a mindfuck, but it reflects about some important questions in life). Today, it is a lazy sunday, and we're just chillin, watching tv, listening to xmas songs, cooking and we're gonna put up the xmas tree later, yaysss!

Because I´m in a very musical mood, I decided to share with you 5 timeless tracks that I adore and never get tired of, sang by women. All of them are very special and close to my heart, for different reasons. I hope you like em!

Dead Can Dance - Frontier



This song is just haunting and mesmerizing, in a very good way. Lisa's vocals are entrancing, and whenever I listen to it I just embark in a mental voyage throughtout dreams and thoughts.

Siouxsie and the Banshees - Face to Face



This song... I have no words. Siouxsie and the banshees are one of my fav bands ever, and this song is purely rawr, sensual and etheral.

X Mal Deutschland - Incubus Succubus II



One of my favourite dance tracks ever, while still being very entrancing.

Diva Destruction - "In Dreaming"



One of my favourite lovesongs, the lyrics are haunting,and I love her voice.

Skeletal Family - Promised Land 



Another one of my favourite dance tracks. It also has the best guitar ever!

BONUS JONAS TRACK

(Not sang by women, but it I feel it fits perfectly in this list, and it is one of the tunes ofmy life, so I have to add it to the list)

Cinema Strange - Greensward grey



No human words can describe this song. This is the stuff dreams and nightmares are made of.

 
Enjoy them my dear batlings, for they are absolutely beautiful <3

  1. Like 5 out of 6, Diva Destruction, I don't know that one... :-P
    I agree on all the others!

    Fun Fact: When I started listenning to Cinema Strange (in Jukebox I belive) I thought I was a woman... #NotAMusicalExpert
