About Me

This song transcends obscurity. This is the original version of this song which was released in 1988 by the artist Q Lazzarus who is a black female vocalist from the USA. Before she was discovered as a singer she worked as a taxi driver in New York. Upon hearing this song, you are most certainly going to discover that you've heard it before, but will be frustrated when you cannot figure out where and when you've heard it. Well let me put an end to your frustrations. Goodbye Horses was released as a single in 1991 together with the b-side song White Lines when it became more noticeably featured in Jonathan Demme's film Silence Of The Lambs as the background music to Buffalo Bill's self-admiring dance in front of his mirror. I feel creepy just listening to it.There is so much violence and obscurity within the walls of Good-bye Horses. It represents all that is good and evil in the world. It is what the world would be listening to on a Saturday night if the Nazi's had won the war, only if the Nazi's had good taste. This Song rivals every other song ever known to man.
