I went swimming With Brian Jones’s ghost I’m prepared to have Fun at any cost I’ll be head back sailing through the cosmos Don’t say anything That you might regret It could break the spell Then what would be left? I’ll be head back sailing through to the unknown Hard to love easy to miss I’m gonna laugh until I make myself sick I’ll be by the pool listening to the greatest hits Why don’t you give me a kiss for the road The cards say go big or go home I’ll be head back sailing through to the unknown Old wound pick it until it bleeds More often than not it’s an anomaly I’ll be riding top down through purgatory Hard to love easy to miss I’m gonna laugh until I make myself sick I’ll be by the pool listening to the greatest hits Hard to love easy to miss I’m gonna laugh until I make myself sick I’m gonna laugh until I’m I’m feeling sick I wanna listen to the The greatest hits The greatest hits

Angel 03:36
You don’t know me well I’m sleeping on your shoulder I wonder if you can tell I couldn’t dream of anyone better And I know and I know and I know I might feel alone when I wake up And I know and I know and I know I’m your angel right? I’m your angel right And you’re my ride or die And I’m your angel right? I can almost hear bells Chiming from the Church of St. Mary Magdalene You’ve situated yourself In my heart and really there’s nothing better than that And I know and I know and I know If its not real then I don’t wanna wake up And I know and I know and I know I’m your angel right? I’m your angel right And you’re my ride or die And I’m your angel right? I’m your angel right? I’m your angel right And you’re my ride or die And I’m your angel right? You don’t know me well But you still know me better than anyone else You don’t know me well But you still know me better than anyone else

I wanna get wasted On imported Coors Banquet A shy lonesome tourist In Piccadilly Circus I could be a cowboy in London Think I could play the part ‘Cause I’m kinda cheap And I’m pretty tall Cowboy I’m a cowboy in London (Ah-hoo in London) Cowboy I’m a cowboy in London (Ah-hoo in London) My rhinestones were fading In a Kensington basement Up all night dancing Two step to Led Zeppelin I could be a cowboy in London Think I could play the part ‘Cause I’m kinda cheap Talking sweet And I’m pretty tall Cowboy I’m a cowboy in London (Ah-hoo in London) Cowboy I’m a cowboy in London With new stars in my eyes I ride off into the sunrise Cowboy I’m a cowboy in London (Ah-hoo in London) Cowboy I’m a cowboy in London (Ah-hoo in London) Cowboy (I could be a cowboy in London) Ah-hoo in London Cowboy (I could be a cowboy in London) Ah-hoo in London

Born of the gold spring Living out my utopian fantasy It’s harder than it would seem I’ve been lost in lost in lost in everything Silly nightmares still kind of scare me Gilded Lillies are still kind of pretty The candle’s crying wax tears Gallery of lights and stars are pricked through the dark canopy Symphony of ringing in my ears I’ve been lost in lost in lost in everything Going nowhere still kind of scares me Alright oh well I’m still tossing pennies I’ve been lost in lost in lost in everything I’ve been lost in lost in lost in everything

Cupid and Psyche Dancing circles around me Whispering through the veil Through all eternity In love with what you can’t see Aphrodite and Eros Fourth god after chaos Arrow through the heart Lots of love lots of loss Lots of love lots of loss No telling if things will work out alright Come to the garden see what you’ll find Lots of love lots of loss Lots of love lots of loss

Always had a thing for crooked teeth I’ve been laying petals at your feet Worshipping at the altar you built for me Crossed paths in my astral dreams With you lurking in the atmosphere What’s the point of sleeping anymore Dreamboat soulmate I’d do whatever you said Dreamboat soulmate I’d do whatever you said I put those medals on your bedpost, babe I’ve fallen out of love with everything What’s the point of fighting it anymore All the buses stop for me and I’m cruising through an astral weekend All the things I’ve loved I’m leaving So long, so lonely In all I dream Dream on, dream with me In harmony Dreamboat soulmate I’d do whatever you said Dreamboat soulmate I’d do whatever you said Dreamboat soulmate I’d do whatever you say Dreamboat soulmate I’d do whatever you say

Took a turn for the worse In this madness And it’s starting to hurt Forever feeling Another realm, a yellow rose Where I’m going I almost wish I could stay I can’t stop disappearing And you’re calling out to me And you’re reaching for my hand And you’re calling out to me But I can’t hear anything And I’m not really here I’m not really here It’s all just smoke and mirrors And I’m not really here There’s a version of me I keep dreaming An invisible kiss I’m forever feeling There’s a version of me That keeps driving To a time and a place That won’t stop disappearing And you’re calling out to me And you’re reaching for my hand I’m not really here I’m not really here It’s all just smoke and mirrors I’m not really here I’m not really here

Wrath 01:21

In a standing trance Totally self possessed Cup filled to the brim Like Dionysus The sun has died forever In spite of how it lingers It’s dead in the sky Dying on the vine There’s laughter on the breeze The night’s creeping in All that’s left is the moon and its just waning I have this kind of dream Where I’m naked at the feast They’re gonna eat me alive And I’m just waiting waiting waiting The sun has died forever In spite of how it lingers Dead in the sky Dying on the vine

There’s no closing in On the end of forever No such thing as the beginning The path of love can be seen From above Venus floats the eternal river forever There’s no closing in On the end of forever No such thing as the beginning The path of love can be seen From above Venus floats the eternal river, forever Venus floats the eternal river, forever

about

It is my goal to create an otherworldly realm tying in imagery that embodies different facets of ‘The Goddess’ or the ‘Faerie Queen’ - dark intensity conjunct with euphoric beauty.

Originally inspired by a deck of oracle cards, the visuals for this collection of music will weave together themes of magic, myth, folklore, and classical art. From Titania to Artemis.

To set the tone I will leave you with a quote from Tolkien - in the voice of Galadriel:

In place of the Dark Lord you will set up a Queen. And I shall not be dark, but beautiful and terrible as the Morning and the Night. Fair as the Sea and the Sun and the Snow upon the Mountain. Dreadful as the Storm and the Lightning. Stronger than the foundations of the earth. All shall love me and despair.

about

Allie Crow Buckley Los Angeles, California

Allie Crow Buckley’s music is a world unto itself. A journey from deep within the forest to the coastal cliffs. In sound, her music is a paradox, capturing the gentle folk of Joni Mitchell alongside the pagan allure of Black Sabbath. She is known for her balance of ethereal, soaring melodies, strong rhythmic elements, and heavy, rooted low end. 'Utopian Fantasy' LP coming May 19th. ... more
