The Verve - So Sister (1997)

Track 2 from Bitter Sweet Symphony single.

I wrote your name in dust on a truck

As it rolled out of town

Just in case my love for you might be found

I cried my tears in a mountain stream

They'll sting you one day

I called your name in a giant cave

It echoes to this day

So sister, you're hearing how I miss her

But I don't think that she's hearing my calls

So sister, you're hearing how I miss her

But I don't think that she's hearing my calls

No I don't think that I'm helping my cause

I wrote our names on a subway wall

Just in case you call

I rent a room and its just for two

But where are you?

So sister, you're hearing how I miss her

But I don't think that she's hearing my calls

So sister, you're hearing how I miss her

But I don't think that she's helping my cause

No I don't think that it's helping my cause

No I don't think that I'm helping my cause

No I don't think that I'm helping my cause

No, No

So sister, you're hearing how I miss her

But I don't think that she's hearing my calls

So sister, I need to be with her

But I don't think that she's hearing my calls

No I don't think that I'm helping my cause

No I don't think that I'm helping my cause

Video doesn't do the song justice. I always pictured this song set on gritty, grimy backstreets; trains to nowhere; dole queue's, downtrodden places yet full of heart. The music is beautiful yet sorrowful and this picture postcard video, complete with its gorgeous, wealthy people has no depth to it.

THIS IS A 2 PART COMMENT SO PLEASE READ IT ALL BEFORE JUDGING This song was for my sister. My brothers college tutor was Doug (R's stepdad), they used to debate all night long and he became very close with Doug and Louisea. This was around 92/93 and he discovered Verve and became obsessed as they were amazing and somehow undiscovered. He (my bro) turned me on to them also I am glad to say Sadly, my sister died of cancer in 1996. A non smoking healthy mum of two under tens with a loser Dad.....

...who had cheated on my sis and after the divorce had no interest in his own kids so they were obviously completely (more than most pre teen girls) in loving awe of their mum My bro wrote to Doug explaining his own feelings of pain, injustice, and all the guilt of coping techniques that happens when a loved one dies young and Richard Ashcroft took it and wrote this for us. I know some people will doubt me but ask yourself why I would make this up. So please do not be caustic and abrasive.
