Howard Made's Sunday Jams: Patti Smith - Pissing In A River

Published on 2020-03-29 00:00:00 by Howard Made

Patti patti patti.

Where do I start with this beautiful human, a true fuckin poet.

This tune was written by her and Ivan Král, after a breakup. Every tune of hers has such raw emotion, you can hear the tragedy in her voice. I love her so much.Also the opening piano chord sequence, which tugs at my fucking heart strings, forms the basis for DJ Shadows “Blood on the Motorway“.

FUN FACT: she voiced a singing baby in the rugrats movie once.
