Dexys (fka Dexys Midnight Runners) Share “Coming Home” Video | ‘The Feminine Divine’ LP Due 7/28

The Feminine Divine

I've been thinking about my life I know that some things I did, they just don't seem right, and I didn't know what I know today. I am a different person in every way Times have changed, and I've changed too. To tell you the truth, I needed to. If I had known what I know today I wouldn't need to be here trying to say I was brought up to believe all of this bullshit Women were repressed - everyone was a mess Men didn't know what the fuck to do So we controlled, we bullied, and we blamed it all on you And now I'm seeing there's another way and this not the way to be No one told me any of this. I was blind but now I see Now this is the only way - the way it has to be Women have been put down for too long and it's down to you and me

We didn't even know, what the fuck we had We shot ourselves in the foot, when we tried to make them feel bad What we needed was to honour them, try and make them feel good Instead we just put them down every time we could And I'm a sorry man today and I know I was the worst I took out all my frustrations on them and them and I devalued all their worth It was fear, fear, fear, nothing but fear I knew they were more powerful than me but I couldn't hold that dear

So now you know

I was afraid of their sexuality, the feminine divine So fucking powerful is their sexual desire Now I watch her express it right in front of me It's such an honour, such a thill, to see her love someone that's not me 'Cos women are the superstars, the goddesses on earth They need to be cherished, worshiped, adored! It's not for them to do things for us, We got it the wrong way round, we should be serving them, for all we're worth. Yes!

So now you know I really do

I'm sorry You should be

So now you know I really do

Dexys dedicaron la segunda parte de su concierto a temas clásicos de sus primeros álbumes. De su fantástico debut de 1980, "Searching for the Young Soul Rebels", rescataron abriendo el único y generoso bis "Geno" y este chiflante "Tell Me When My Light Turns Green", una de mis máximas favoritas.

De la obra maestra de 1982 "Too- Rye- Ay" interpretaron unas cuantas, "Until I Believe to my Soul", el maravilloso medley "Plan B"- "I´ll Show You", su versión de "Jackie Wilson Said (I'm in Heaven When You Smile)" de Van Morrison, y, cómo no, la inmortal "Come On Eileen".

No llegué a verles en 1982 por los pelos, ahora lo he hecho. Antes y después del concierto estuve con varios amigos y colegas de milicia adolescente, Isabel, Pilar, Uxue, Iñigo, Pamplona, Fernando Soto, José Luis "Mac", Ángel "Manzanares", Carlos "Zoot Suit", Juan "Pájaro" y Santi "Chaquetas Bonitas". From Barna estuvo Miqui Puig. Lo que me extrañó muchísimo es no ver a Chema Snap! ("Camel Boys", where are you Txema??). Va por todos ellas-os.

Wow Dexy's are nothing like caffeine. Things are slowed down, totally chill no anxiety, focus and an elevated mood. Is this what normal people are like?? surely not.

Live Review: Dexys at the Bridgewater Hall in Manchester 08 September 2023

Words: Andy Hughes Do you ever find yourself completely infatuated by a record, that piece of art becoming your everything for days, weeks, months, years? Five or six years ago, I found myself falling head over heels for ‘Too-Rye-Ay‘, obsessed and returning again and again to the near-perfect second studio album by the great Dexys Midnight Runners. Sure I’d heard the hits and was fond of the…

Dexys - Incapable Of Love [Live]

Dexys - The Feminine Divine

Dexys, o Dexys Midnight Runners, que no es que renieguen de su nombre de siempre, tuvieron un comeback estupendo en 2012, cuando publicaron esa joya llamada ‘One Day I’m Going To Soar’. Un disco que no es que tuviera mucha repercusión, pero era realmente maravilloso. De hecho, entró en lo mejor de ese año en el blog. Además, su presentación en directo en el Primavera Sound de 2013 fue…
