Pixies - I Can't Forget (Leonard Cohen cover)

Pixies - I Can't Forget (Leonard Cohen cover - lyrics)
I stumbled out of bed
I got ready for the struggle
I smoked a cigarette
And I tightened up my gut
I said this can't be me
Must be my double
And I can't forget
And I can't forget
I can't forget but I don't remember what
I'm burning up the road
I'm heading down to Phoenix
I got this old address
Of someone that I knew
It was high and fine and free
Oh you should've seen us
And I can't forget
And I can't forget
I can't forget but I don't remember who
I'll be there today with a big bouquet of cactus
I've got this rig that runs, runs on memory
And I promise, cross my heart they'll never catch us
But if they do just tell 'em it was me
I've loved you all my life
And that's how I want to end it
The summer's almost gone
And winter's tuning up
The summer's gone but a lot goes on forever
And I can't forget
I can't forget
I can't forget, but I don't remember what

Pixies and Cohen, what a blessing. Creative and profound souls.

[@karlboman]

Probably the best Cohen cover I've ever heard. Love this song.

[@bradgodin146]

Great cover by a great band!

sublime.. punk not dead

[@GrindhouseTori]

I'll never forget how brilliant and beautiful this cover is. Case in point, from Leonard Cohen's original to The Pixies cover to Jarvis Cocker's cover, it's all perfect. A great, great song with nothing but great, great homages.

This song sounds like a Pixies song, it fits them well.

[@petterbert]

Don`t remeber a lot me eighter, but I`ll never forget, what I do remember :)

[@apothecary0420]

Cohen plus pixies equals much win.

[@maxtalley6710]

Love Leonard Cohen's version, but this is fantastic. The Pixies at the height of their powers!

[@rockamora50]

Yeah, boyeeeeeeeeeeee

[@RoCkaS90]

PIXIES!!!

[@tehapu7358]

I was going to write something but I can't remember what!

[@joseluissaldanha5584]

Pixies are/were probably my favourite band ever. I believe I must be the only fan that was at all the 7 or so concerts they gave in Portugal since 1991. But they really murdered this wonderful song by Cohen.

[@marialfabeta]

Jose Luis Saldanha és doido.esta versão é mto boa.e antes de 91 vi os pixies em 89 acho eu num concerto memorável no coliseu.

[@mark83175]

Actually, it’s so good that they turned me on to Leonard Cohen.
