Only inside you the ghost of a love
That is wordless and painful and old
There’s no one else in the whole outside world
That matches to her in your soul

robyn hitchcock – the ghost in you
Another wonderfully pared-down, intimate cover by Robyn Hitchcock, this one of the Psychedelic Furs’ hit from 1984. It appears on Hitchcock’s 2014 album, The Man Upstairs.
“Hitchcock has a thing for ghosts, and it’s indicative of his knack for interpreting other artists, and storytelling in general, that he’s able to funnel his own obsessions through songs he didn’t compose.” (Pitchfork)

From Respect (A&M,1993).
“the ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face…”
Stripped-down, live cover by the (brilliant) Robyn Hitchcock of the (incredible) Bob Dylan song, “Visions of Johanna”, originally from Blonde on Blonde (1966).
