                              Nemesis
                            H. P. Lovecraft

        Thro’ the ghoul-guarded gateways of slumber,
              Past the wan-moon’d abysses of night,
        I have liv’d o’er my lives without number,
              I have sounded all things with my sight;
    And I struggle and shriek ere the daybreak, being driven to madness with fright.

        I have whirl’d with the earth at the dawning,
              When the sky was a vaporous flame;
        I have seen the dark universe yawning,
              Where the black planets roll without aim;
    Where they roll in their horror unheeded, without knowledge or lustre or name.

        I had drifted o’er seas without ending,
              Under sinister grey-clouded skies
        That the many-fork’d lightning is rending,
              That resound with hysterical cries;
    With the moans of invisible daemons that out of the green waters rise.

        I have plung’d like a deer thro’ the arches
              Of the hoary primordial grove,
        Where the oaks feel the presence that marches
              And stalks on where no spirit dares rove;
    And I flee from a thing that surrounds me, and leers thro’ dead branches above.

        I have stumbled by cave-ridden mountains
              That rise barren and bleak from the plain,
        I have drunk of the fog-foetid fountains
              That ooze down to the marsh and the main;
    And in hot cursed tarns I have seen things I care not to gaze on again.

        I have scann’d the vast ivy-clad palace,
              I have trod its untenanted hall,
        Where the moon writhing up from the valleys
              Shews the tapestried things on the wall;
    Strange figures discordantly woven, which I cannot endure to recall.

        I have peer’d from the casement in wonder
              At the mouldering meadows around,
        At the many-roof’d village laid under
              The curse of a grave-girdled ground;
    And from rows of white urn-carven marble I listen intently for sound.

        I have haunted the tombs of the ages,
              I have flown on the pinions of fear
        Where the smoke-belching Erebus rages,
              Where the jokulls loom snow-clad and drear:
    And in realms where the sun of the desert consumes what it never can cheer.

        I was old when the Pharaohs first mounted
              The jewel-deck’d throne by the Nile;
        I was old in those epochs uncounted
              When I, and I only, was vile;
    And Man, yet untainted and happy, dwelt in bliss on the far Arctic isle.

        Oh, great was the sin of my spirit,
              And great is the reach of its doom;
        Not the pity of Heaven can cheer it,
              Nor can respite be found in the tomb:
    Down the infinite aeons come beating the wings of unmerciful gloom.

        Thro’ the ghoul-guarded gateways of slumber,
              Past the wan-moon’d abysses of night,
        I have liv’d o’er my lives without number,
              I have sounded all things with my sight;
    And I struggle and shriek ere the daybreak, being driven to madness with fright.

    Was there some strange prescience at work when this was filmed all those years ago?
    Shame, indeed, not only for the song, but the irony that a paedophile as yet unknown at that time was presenting the programme the kids appeared on.

    A cover of a cover this time.
    The original was by Swedish duo The Knife, an electronic/synthpop song.
    That was then covered by Argentinian-Swedish singer songwriter José González using just an acoustic guitar.

    The version I've posted below is a cover of the José González arrangement by a lady with a wonderful mellow voice.

    This is just beautifully done.
    I've never been one to watch music videos, preferring to just hear the music.
    But this video fits the song so well.
    It's rare for me to cry, but this brings a few tears each time I hear it.

    I have to confess that if it weren't for the Covid lockdowns I would more than likely not have been at Achat last year.

    It is indeed a mystery…and a worrying one.
    The OP hasn't been around for 3 years and there being no reason for Achat to lock the thread it must beg the questions….
    Who did? Why? And more importantly, how?
