The visual artist Marcin Pospiech has just made us a beautiful visualiser for our cover of “Song To The Siren”. We were originally asked to record it for use in a television show that ultimately decided against using it so it’s been sitting around unheard ever since. We decided it was too good to be left on the bench so we included it in our most recent record store day release. Watch Marvin’s gorgeous efforts here. Listen to our ‘Lie To Me” EP on all streaming platforms.
I saw when I was very young back in 1999. the memories of your concert has been with me and they will always be.
Are you allowed to tell us which tv show? ☕️

It gives “HBO” vibes..🤔🤔
Wonderful visuals, lovely song
I've always liked Shirley's voice the most on ballads. So much emotion.
U r not alone in this. Much as I love all their hardest-rocking tracks, my #1 all-time-fave is probably "Milk" (Tuff call, tho; "Queer" is up there, too... Or maybe "Cup of Coffee"... Or "Godhead"... Or "Blood for Poppies"...)
@@smartalek180 One of my favorite ballads with Shirley's voice, is King of the world. Heartbreak to hate also great. When she was apart of Angelfish. From Garbage, So like a rose. It's the song I relate to the most. Other favorites. Control, A stroke of luck, Milk, and Night Drive Loneliness.
🔥🎵👍🏼♥️
Taking influence from Elisabeth Fraser on the vocals and making it their own as always makes it sound so..fucking..beautiful.
Nothing beats Elisabeth Fraser! Greatest voice in the history of music
@@Sblueboy808 You forgot Lisa Gerrard!
@@gaetanoermito5001 and many others lol!
Shirley's voice is beautiful
When a song is as covered as this one has been it's quite an achievement to have recorded a version that not only sounds fresh to thr air, but also tugs the heartstrings as deeply as the very best of the past! This one does it! ❤
The original song was the opening of the Héroes del Silencio concert and I totally loved it… now, 17 years later my favorite band does a cover 😍 thank you, garbage 🫶🏼

The US alt-rock group Garbage released a Record Store Day-exclusive four-song EP called Lie To Me in April 2024. It contains four previously unreleased tracks from the band, including a couple of collaborations with fellow veterans. The Lie To Me (EP) has two completely new songs, the revved up pop-punk anthem “Better Not Lie To Me” and the clanking, wounded “Revenge And Hurt.” The band co-wrote the former song with Rancid leader Tim Armstrong, and you can totally tell. The EP also has Garbage’s take on “Song To The Siren,” the folk classic that the late Tim Buckley originally released in 1970. There’s also a remix of Garbage’s 2005 track “Bad Boyfriend,” featuring Dave Grohl on drums. Grohl and Garbage drummer Butch Vig go back a long way; they both worked on this obscure album called Nevermind in 1991. Enjoy Jim

lyrics Song To The Siren Long afloat on shipless oceans I did all my best to smile Till your singing eyes and fingers Drew me loving to your isle And you sang, "Sail to me Sail to me; let me enfold you Here I am, here I am Waiting to hold you" La la, la la, la la la La la, la la, la la la Now, did I dream you dreamed about me? Were you here when I was full-sail? Now my foolish boat is leaning Broken lovelorn on your rocks For you sing, "Touch me not Touch me not; come back tomorrow Oh, my heart; oh, my heart Shies from the sorrow" Well, I'm as puzzled as a newborn child I'm as riddled as the tide Should I stand amid the breakers Or should I lie with death, my bride? Hear me sing, "Swim to me Swim to me; let me enfold you Here I am, here I am Here I am, here I am Waiting to hold you"
Excelente
Felt some "This will end in tears" vibes in there.
"Here I am waiting to hold you" the feels it gives ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥

Full essence of the original song is slightly touched, this is a whole new song. Good to cover music gems, and now I go to the original just to wash it - afloat on shipless ocean. 🙂
Love it ❤❤❤❤
Hermosa canción! saludos desde Esquel, patagonia Argentina
The song of the siren was undeniable, commanding the audience. Sailors would hear the singing and throw themselves on the rocks. But if the sirens' singing failed to produce a victim, she died. According to some versions of the myth, the sirens are fated to die if sailors were to hear their song and escape. So, to obey the command was to die. To deny it was to kill. The Sirens dilemma. Sinead did a version...
This one sounds like a song you'd play at the end of a Prom. 💋
Great tune
amazing !
Absolutely breathtaking. Love this
Thank You !!!
Grandios ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Magnificent as always: as 1995 as now. Love you to the moon and back❤❤❤
I just received the vinyl record, it's a pure marvel, thank you again.

Fucking amazing version! Beautiful and stands out from the other covers out there. Of course, nothing but the best always from Garbage!
Amazing. ❤ It's incredible the wildly differing treatments this song can take, and quite something to make a new version so dark and beautiful. The visuals are a perfect compliment.
LOVE THIS AMAZING TRACK ❤😊!
Glad to hear that voice. Nice video too.
Didn't realize this was a cover until I read the comments! They do such masterful work with covers. One of the most sonically beautiful ballads I've heard in awhile. Another flawless job, Garbage
Wow 😍
