 | Giant Sand - Shiver
Tags: Chore, Enchantment, Giant, Of, Sand, Shiver
Description: From the album Chore Of Enchantment
something's in the water
besides a moon that dont know when to quit
spine waits to feel the shiver
right now deals with a great lack of it
way up in the high desert,
or down in anywhere france
trains were built to remedy
tracks laid out, at least give us half a chance
to deliver
deliver
deliver a shiver
forget age and well like some treasured splendor
with words just so strong and a touch just so tender
is it better off beyond description?
left alone in a dark room with a mouth full of prescription
Unable to deliver, unable to understand
the deliver of shiver
so you take your time
and you take your leave
ready to do without
ready to recieve
never mind, gonna find good love down by the river
might as well find your spine
the shiver
there's something in the water besides a moon that don't know when to quit
c'mon and deliver
c'mon and deliver
the shiver

 | Giant Sand "Yer Ropes"
Tags: Alternative, BVMTV, Country, Giant, Music, Sand, Sandworms, Tucson, Video
Description: Giant Sand is an American rock band, based in Tucson, Arizona, USA. The name is shortened from the original Giant Sandworms, a reference to the creatures in the Dune books. Overseen by singer-songwriter Howe Gelb, its membership has shifted over the years—at times with each album. For a long while the band's rhythm section consisted of John Convertino and Joey Burns who left the band when their side project, Calexico, grew more widely known than Giant Sand and, as Gelb characterized it in 2004, Calexico "began to work against Giant Sand and eat away at what the band was".
Other members have included keyboardist Chris Cacavas (of Green on Red), bassist Paula Jean Brown (who was briefly a member of The Go-Go's and was married to Gelb at the time and drummer Tom Larkins (later to become a Jonathan Richman sideman).[citation needed]
Guest artists have included Victoria Williams, Neko Case, Juliana Hatfield, PJ Harvey, Vic Chesnutt, Steve Wynn, Vicki Peterson, Rainer Ptacek, M. Ward, Isobel Campbell nearly all members of the band Poi Dog Pondering, and regular cameos from Gelb and Brown's daughter, Indiosa Patsy Jean.
