Lovers from the Moon – The Magnetic Fields
Recently, through no legal means, i stumbled upon the two, near identical, demo tapes of the Zinnias, Claudia and Stephin’s band before the Magnetic Fields. It’s naturally fantastic, but the best thing about it is the fragments of what would become Magnetic Fields songs found retrospectively in some Zinnias songs. Most notably there is a prototypal version of Kings, but also in the song Fabergé, in its verse, is found identical the verse of Lover’s From The Moon. Now, which is the more dreamy: being lovers from the Moon, or being made by Fabergé himself? This guy can write lyrics.
