nico - 'afraid'

She's not the easiest of singers to listen to but if you stick with it then I think you might find the rewards are plentiful. This is from her very first album ' Desertshore' and really puts paid to the lie that she couldn't sing. I think she preferred the 'talk/sing' method because of her strong accent and I wish she had persevered with more singing but I guess that might have detracted from what she was best known for. I'm rambling, let's get to the music. This song is, as with her life, all too brief.
