Pixies - "Velouria"

Pixies - "Velouria": "I've always found this song to have a strangely magestic and tragic quality about it. Married with the more polished sound of the Bossanova record, the Pixies come off as a less playful band than on previous releases, which only lends more weight to Frank Black's impassioned screams here. When Kim Deal keeps singing out 'V-E-L-O-U-R-I-A' throughout the song's outro, it comes across as being playfully wistful, but also oddly like a memorial. I love this song."
