Dressed In White
King Crimson · Other Songs - King Crimson
She's wearing white again but colours always betray
Don't look into her eyes, there's an evil darkness inside
Theme: mike
You might see her but she is not here
Leave her alone don't get to near
One touch and you'll disappear
What a scream you'll never hear
She carries a secret
And where she must go...you'll never know
Solo: mike
She carries a secret
And where she must go...you'll never know
Solo: andy - theme: mike
Searching but not for a home
A restless soul all on its own
Always dressed in white
As she passes on through the night
She carries a secret
And where she must go...you'll never know
Solo: mike - andy - mike - andy - mike
She carries a secret
And where she must go...you'll never know
Dressed In White - King Crimson
Released in 1982 on the album *Discipline*, "Dressed In White" stands as a pivotal moment in King Crimson's evolution toward progressive rock and new wave. The track features the band's signature interplay between guitar, bass, and drums, anchored by Robert Fripp's distinctive guitar work and Michael Giles' haunting vocals. It captures the group's transition from their earlier jazz-rock fusion era to a more melodic, synth-infused sound that would define their late-period output. The song's atmospheric production and complex rhythmic structures reflect the band's commitment to intricate composition and live improvisation, cementing its status as a defining piece of 1980s progressive rock. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to blend technical proficiency with emotional depth, making it a staple for fans of the genre.
