Lyrics:
Diana [Version (a)]:
Oh Diana
Tears fall like rain
Oh oh Diana
I am in pain
Mmmmmm
Says my heartbeat
Oh oh Diana
You are a glove
Mmm Diana
I am in love
Oh oh Diana
I see you clear
Mmm oh Diana
I beg you near
Diana
I see you conquered
And I am traveling
Trying to get to you
And I'll travel hard
Oh Diana
Tears fall like rain
Oh oh Diana
I am in pain
Mmmmmm
Says my heartbeat
Oh oh Diana
You are a glove
Mmm Diana
I am in love
Oh oh Diana
I see you clear
Mmm oh Diana
I beg you near
Diana
I see you conquered
And I am traveling
Trying to get to you
And I'll travel hard
The Song:
"Diana" is the 3rd song on Skip Spence's album, Oar. It is a meditative, repetitive folk song, slightly spooky but pure Spence.
Beck's third Record Club session covered the entire album. Beck takes the lead vocals, sounding exasperated and breathless, fitting nicely into the slightly dark, yet romantic, feel of the song. The atmospheric guitar by Jeff Tweedy surrounding everything make this a wonderful recording as well.
