sovay: (Sovay: David Owen)
Every year for Guy Fawkes Day, my mother watches V for Vendetta (2005). Not being at home this year, I seem to have spent the evening hanging out at auditions instead. I suppose that still has to do with masks. Have this song I love about burning. The internet tells me it's unknown whether it's a genuine folksong or a brilliant fiction, but I don't care: it's autumnal, and it chills me, and I associate it besides with Loki, which is appropriate to the release date at the end of this week. The first version is my favorite, but I offer them both for comparison.

The Devil's Interval, "The Bonfire Carol"

June Tabor & Oysterband, "Judas (Was a Red-Headed Man)"

Happy Fifth of November.
