Catfish Kate Lyrics:
Call me devil call me friend but call me Black Jack Hooligan
I came all the way from Aberdeen to live among the go-betweens
let me tell you tell you about Catfish Kate in the time before when she’s just Kate
here in the mountains all alone before the time we called this home
Where is my angel fallen down at the river bottom and will she get away?
where is my Blackfoot blossom is she just playing possum who lives another day?
Here in the valley that we all know a river bend that’s deep and slow
where every creature drinks their fill and other creatures take their kill
now Kate went to catch a fish to put inside her favorite dish
a catfish grabbed her by the head and took her to his house instead
Where is my angel fallen down at the river bottom and will she get away?
where is my Blackfoot blossom is she just playing possum who lives another day?
Well, they wrestled all the day and night the morning showed the bloody sight
Kate all dressed in catfish clothes his whiskers for her catfish robe whiskers for her robe
Where is my angel fallen down at the river bottom and is she there to stay?
where is my Blackfoot blossom is she just playing possum who lives another day?
now she’s known as Catfish Kate
#Pixies #BeneathTheEyrie #Alternative
When Black Francis was a kid, his father told him stories, often about an adventurous character called Black Jack Hooligan, and his girlfriend, Catfish Kate. This song tells the story of how Kate got her nickname. Imagination is a wonderful thing.
Songfacts thanks for that!
Black Francis said that it was inspired by the stories he used to tell his kids at bedtime.
The anecdote comes from an interview Black did on q .
C , cd cr
Another classic ... this song makes you want to cry so good it is ...
It really is an effing great song
Yoda you are
As a 30 year long Pixies fan, I really dig this song and video. The lyrics are such a perfect example of their dark, but tongue in cheek sense of humor.
I want to personally thank Neirin, Lianne, Christopher, Rio, Christia, and Lois for putting together such a beautiful masterpiece of animation and storyline of the lyrical content.
Of course I miss Kim, but I feel like they couldn’t have chosen a better bass player than Paz. Those were some big shoes to fill, but Paz seems to fit right in, and she and Black’s vocal harmonies work perfectly together.
Long live my favorite band ever, THE PIXIES!
same here! It grows on you!
Dude! No fucking way! I am sitting here listening to this song, getting my morning going, telling my daughter about music and how it sticks with you. Started thinking back to shows and bands, thought of you....and there you are! Best wishes!🍆🍆🍆🍆
Neirin Best
You’re more than welcome, Neirin! Excellent job with the video. Thanks again!

Hey, man. I’m sure I know you, but just not under the handle, Frank enStuff. Lol.

One of the greatest PIXIES songs ever.
I have always loved the Pixies for years. But they have so many songs that I have yet to hear. This one though, really floats my boat. I absolutely love it, lyrics and music both! Where is my angel fallen?
Their music is so.... evolving
Legitimately one of the coolest looking music videos I’ve seen in a long time.
This song warms my soul like the sun shining through the leaves on an early autumn afternoon.
What a fucking beautiful song! Its perfect. So glad to hear Francis is still making brilliant music.
Good fishing story. Became My favorite song
There are no words to express how much i love this song. Someone showed me the pixies and i got in love with it, you guys are great and i hope you keep doing what you do because you make people’s days a little better. 👍
The intro to this song is 12 seconds long. No other band can do that 12 seconds.
This is currently my favorite song in the whole world.
Mine is Bird of Prey.
I love how the Pixies have continued to evolve and grow with me.
Just i love love
you guys all talking about the album.. what about THIS VIDEO!! ITS SO GOOD. Think of all that hard hand painted frame by frame work.. it looks amazinggg!!
It's amazing what computers can do these days.
@@sysplex Well actually it was mainly hand-painted. I can tell you, I painted a ger-million frames for it in the course of 2 months!!!!
Like all the best Pixies tunes this lulls you into a false sense of security with it's pop melodies and uplifting harmonies, only to make you subconsciously question this elation with it's despairing melancholy lyrics. GENIUS.
It’s a pretty little folktale. Love the chorus and its blending of Charles and Paz’s voices.
Love the bass in this song
PIXIES sounds like the good wine.
Yep! Ages well
saw them in Glasgow on Sunday. Two hours non-stop they played and were absolutely brilliant.
seminal
i am old. pixies is old. this music is gold✊
I'm old, Pixies are old and awesome BUT this band is dead in1993. Now this "group" is a piece of shit for nostalgic fans.
@Jason Voorhees If anything, it sounds like The Pixies are nostalgic
@Jason Voorhees too*
But yes that was what I meant
Sinister and great song. Black Francis is one of the greatest songwriters of all times.
"Catfish Kate" debuted at #8 on the New Alternative 40 Chart this week!
Awesome! I've been told my music sounds alike. Maybe you want to stop by my channel for more chart material ;-)?
Is this a provocation or what
@Jason Voorhees You okay?
@Jason Voorhees I'm cool because I'm not afraid to speak the truth. Most people like Pixies but not me. I don't like bands that used to be cool.
@@aperson4640 that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard
Another album masterpiece for sure, I love you Pixies 💕
I like how they mentioned Aberdeen it reminded me of Mr. COBAIN
Hey, if you dig the pixies, you might dig my music, too! ruclips.net/video/NsridTj7n_g/видео.html
entré de curioso a tu canal y me encontré puros creepypastas en epañol jaja, no era lo que esperaba
100% refreshing!
Frank black has been doing music like this non stop since the pixies.
He's a truly prolific songwriter that still doesn't entirely get his due.
Absolutely, guys.
Pixies Is always magic...
last summer my gf and i were boogie boarding at the beach when we got swept out too far from shore and couldn’t make it back. as the waves were crashing into us, this was the song i was singing/humming to keep from panicking until help finally found us. idk why, but it was just stuck in my head that day; thanks pixies for helping me keep my cool that day :)
Wow haha thats a good story 😜
Quel est l'équilibre? Un doux chaos, une basse audible et superbe. Puis les stridences subtiles qui remontent de façon progressive.Sous harmonies et la cohésion des sons.Voix en batterie .La joie d'entendre. A l'écoute. Une coulée de pur plaisir. Une consummation. Votre feu irrigue mes oreilles. Un sang brûlant de musique.Juste jouir de cette chanson, légère telle une bulle .Ma subjectivité. Hop. Dans mon répertoire de mémoire. Dès lors que la fin dispose de tout. Depuis le début .Magnifique à pleurer. Simplicité si réjouissante. Une mélodie entêtante.
I heard this song of WTMD. The Pixies were one of my favorite underrated bands in the 90s.
The Pixies are really finding themselves again. This song has such joy and charisma. Where there isn't a deep philosophical enigma, there is a cryptic love story about a slacker who adored a fierce, mighty and independent woman. The loud joyful refrains seems to sing in dissonant cheerfulness about his uncertainty if she's alive, while in the quiet tense verses the singer recounts the details of her gore-drenched victory over her assailant, disdainfully repeating the final fate of the challenger to his angel:
"The morning showed the bloody sight
Kate all dressed in catfish clothes
his whiskers for her catfish robes.
Whiskers, for her robes."
It's not clear whether he is Kate's lover, although that seems implied by his earlier mention that they now "make their home" where she once defended herself from a giant catfish. She also returns to him alive and newly donning the flesh and whiskers of her adversary, suggesting that they are both happy to see each other again. The song doesn't explain or break down any of it, though, but simply tells this cool tale about that time she spent a whole day and night fighting for her life and came home wearing the other guy.
Hell yeah I'm so hyped for this album
I love your muse profile pic :-P
How did u post this 4 days before the video came out???
@@p_oger2060 there was a pre-release announcement! The feature's been on RUclips for almost a year now
Hey! Glad you like this so much! What do you think about my music: ruclips.net/video/NsridTj7n_g/видео.html I've been told it's similar to Pixies!
je kiffe à fond ! Je redécouvre Franck Black !
Amazing!
Gave me a HUGE shot of life, the same best Pixies do.
This has the Big Country heavy guitar vibe and energy.
The first time i hear a song from the latest album
So good
My boy just letting it swing alr
Appealing images and a familiar sound working together to do some basic maintenance on my soul.
Can’t wait for this new album. Pixies forever !!!
pixies are pixies, best band of my world forever love u till i die
I can't wait another month for this album!
Creo que es el grupo que más he escuchado a lo largo de mi vida, los descubrí a los 15...tengo 41. Forman parte de mi vida.
los pudiste ver en vivo?
beautiful story and a timeless groove. a classic pixie melody, love it
I'm so freaking happy that Pixies came back. Whenever I see a new song appearing it's exciting because you never know what these guys throw at you, and pretty much every time whatever it is, it's brilliant!
Much love from Tunisia, this song makes me wanna make a sad movie about pain
Saw them preform this live as the debut of the song! Amazing experience
Lucky man
Amazing.
Cool song & MV.
Sooooo 90's. Love it
Hey there, if you love 90s sound, my music could be for you too!
J adore
just plain awesome as most of your songs
Great, I love the new incarnation of the Pixies as much as the early albums.
Their new incarnation sounds more like FBF solo work than classic Pixies, but it's good music. A little more melodic, a little less quiet, loud, quiet...
just when you think it’d be tough to beat any/all of their already greatest works of art ... along comes kate...wow... proud 43 yo dad seeing my teen daughter jam out through the corner of my eye ... ty pixies 👍😉
Thank you dad for introducing me to the pixies. My grunge/indie/vintage aesthetic is complete.
Can't stop to listent to it, since yesterday
My current favorite tune...love the Pixies.
Love this..Loving the Black poetry.
Pixies are legends
Pixies rule!! Charles Thompson/Black Francis/Frank Black best song writer ever. Been listening to them/his solo stuff since 1987 and they're still going strong! Can't wait for the rest of the album....
How come i didn't listen to this before? It's great!
This gave me goosebumps! I can not wait for the whole album
Nice Einstürzende Neubauten call out at the 2:31 mark
WOW!
Just watched this six times with my five year old daughter. So many questions 🐱🐟👩
I’m getting strong Head Carrier vibes. This song is great!!! I can’t wait for the new album!!
holy shit i can’t wait until the album is released! it’s already great
love
Beautiful, bizzare and hypnotic! Exactly what I'd expect from the Pixies. Can't wait for the new album to drop!
Pils dancing on my arms! Great song
This album is going to be great. As always with Pixies.
Wow! Pretty great. The Pixies still got it after all these years.
Beau-huh-huh-tiful!!!!!
SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG AND BRILLIANT VIDEO THANK YOU PIXIES
The old days are back like they have never been gone, classic Pixies sound.
I love this song
I.. We (the world) can't wait for this masterpiece.
@Jason Voorhees what about the 2 albums that came after they were aight not as good as doolittle or surfer rosa but not bad by any means. I would agree with you if you said the new output is shit, cause it is
Cannot wait too, I have listened to their last two albums all the time. And it is the right time for the new one. I suppose that it will be available around 15/09. I will see them live in London on 20/09 then
@Jason Voorhees How can Doolittle be their last good album when Trompe Le Monde is their best album?
@Jason Voorhees Bossanova is my least favorite Pixies from the Kim Deal era, but the new album is way better than Bossanova
@Jason Voorhees Every Pixies studio album is genius in my opinion.
I enjoy playing this song very much.
They still killing it
This whut I'm TALKIN' bout!
Jsem rád, že jedna z mála hudebních jistot za poslední čtvrtstoletí jsou Pixies... U mě vždy tnou do živýho...
Same for me. 60 years old, addicted forever
Probablemente mi favorita de este álbum. Gracias Pixies ❤
The song-writing is surpassing what I expected from a band so far into their career. Great songs so far. Really quite surprised.
Magnificent!
literally listening to doolittle on vinyl and i see this
"... and immediately killed myself"
You are living the good life. Doing the lord's work.
@oldmanwitherspoon come on, that's a bit unfair. This is actually a decent fun track. Not really on the same level as their first 4 albums but it's not bad. (That said, I like it much more than "la la love you" and "silver" from Doolittle, those never did anything for me)
every song of pixies we like instant in the first listen, love it
head on jesus and mary chain cover is really excellent
they did it again with this one
already 30+ years
I LOVE PIXIES SO MUCH!
Oh my!
In Genre Pixies is the GOAT!!! No one else even close.
Catchy single
PIXIES サイコー‼
The best song of 2019
This... or Graveyard Hill. Or Bird of Prey.
@@vraikorriganYeah, those are pretty good too
Amazing chorus!!
I love this band. I met them once when I had no idea about their music.
Both shows in the Netherlands were already sold out but I've bought tickets to see them in Cologne, Germany. 💗
LEGENDS ..........what more can anyone say .
Cannot wait for your new album. LOVExxxxxx. ALWAYS AND FOREVER.. 🎊🎊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
So fresh as if Pixies were a brand new band
