I'm Nina
I feel love
I'll be safe
I'll be yours
Ever more
I'll be safe
Mama
Once Nina
Was a young girl
Now she's dead
Grew older
Grew colder and
Lost her way
Mama
Where's your mama gone?
Where's your mama gone?
Where's your mama gone?
Where's your mama gone?
Far far away
Far far away...
I feel love
I'll be safe
I'll be yours
Ever more
I'll be safe
Mama
Once Nina
Was a young girl
Now she's dead
Grew older
Grew colder and
Lost her way
Mama
Where's your mama gone?
Where's your mama gone?
Where's your mama gone?
Where's your mama gone?
Far far away
Far far away...
Nina In Ecstasy
Released on the 1995 album To Bring You My Love, "Nina In Ecstasy" stands as a defining track in PJ Harvey's early career, showcasing her signature blend of folk, art rock, and gothic sensibilities. The song features a haunting vocal performance that captures a sense of raw, unfiltered emotion, characteristic of her work during the mid-1990s. Produced with a minimalist approach, the recording highlights Harvey's ability to convey complex psychological states through melody and atmosphere rather than traditional song structures. It remains a staple of her discography, often cited as an example of her transition from indie folk to a more expansive, theatrical rock sound that would define her later output.
