All About Eve - In The Meadow (lyrics):

Girl in a uniform

Grey and white and crisp, clean

How can I live in your world

Of strawberry flowers

And colourful hours

Lovingly I dust all the dust on your shelf

Kiss the mirror clean

Where you glance at yourself

I know what to do

Maybe a letter I'll send

From underground and wait to be found out

Lovingly I press out the ink on the page

Carefully I'd scent it

In stock from the meadow

It is dark... in the meadow

It is dark... in the meadow

It is dark... in the meadow

I spill it all as I pour

Red wine will stain... remember

There's none for the little girl blue

Who lives down the stairs

And loves like the stars

But I must not forget

That I am what I am

And you must not forget

That you are who you are

It is dark... in the meadow

It is dark... in the meadow

It is dark... in the meadow

It is dark...

album: All About Eve (1988)

I remember the day I fell asleep with the album this came from on my walkman....remember the cassette days ...and I woke up to this guitar solo and this became one of my favourite songs ever...I thought it was boring before then

Been waiting an age for this one! I was 20 when the debut LP came out, i thought i'd died and gone to heaven. Saw them in Southampton a few years back but i dont recall them playing anything off the first two albums. I was so disappointed!

The live version of this (all seven glorious minutes of it) was/is on the B side of the "Martha's Harbour" 12" single. If I find my copy of it I'll upload it myself! Like others here, I can't believe it isn't represented on youtube. By the way, another brilliant All About Eve live moment was on "Rock Steady" in 1989 at Barrowlands, Glasgow playing "Scarlet". Check it out, it's amazing :)

Absolutely beautiful singing and musician sounds, her voice has a kind of romantically haunting and ethereal edge to it.

Great drumming too, thanks to The Mission's Mick Brown. Great track. Simple but brilliant.

Wish i was part of All About Eve, Vibes from their songs would feel even more epic up on stage playing!

I remember playing this on a jukebox in Berwick-upon-Tweed and having people come up to me afterwards and ask "Who was that?...It was fantastic". Pretty much sums up the song AND the band. Memories.

Damn! They absolutely rocked on this song, I had no idea of the existance of this record "In The Meadow", I only knew their short post-punk period, but not this one and I LOVED IT! GORGEOUS, ELEGANT and MYSTERIOUS.

This song was my favourite when I was 16, now 21 years later I found it still magical... Mate, how could they write a tune like that
