“Miss Fortune” closes out Faust’s self-titled debut album, taking up nearly half of the album in length.
It is comprised of three distinct parts which were recorded live – two heavily distorted and chaotic experimental instrumental rock pieces, and a short back and forth spoken-word segment laid on...
Are we supposed to be or not to be?
Said the angel to the Queen
I lift my skirt when Voltaire turns
As he speaks, his mouth full of garlic
White, yes, white
Misfortune of us two
He told you to be free
And you obeyed
We have to decide what is important
A war we never see
Or a street so black that babies die?
A system and a theory
Or our wish to be free?
To organize and analyze
And at the end realize
That nobody knows
If it really happened
Miss Fortune was produced by Uwe Nettelbeck.
