Madeleine Peyroux Singing Waren Zevon's "Desperados Under the Eaves"

I'm blown away by the beauty of her voice. Fragile and beautiful. 🌷🌷🌷
It's a song about alcohol. A song about despair.
All those salty Margaritas in Los Angeles...
Is it a song about you and me – my foreign friend? Is it?

@GaVmarts In fact "Desperados" is the only Warren Zevon song that I know. A sad song about being an alcoholic.

@helenS There is something tragically touching/poignant about the vulnerability. Her voice is strangely soothing. Nonetheless, alcoholism should not be romantacized. What is your opninion?

@Zakattack86 "Still waking up in the mornings with shaking hands"
I don't think it's romanticized. It's a song about an alcoholic's sadness.

@helenS I think you are correct now that you made it clear with the lyrics. Delirium tremens can be terrifying I would imagine. I was curious about profile your picture/avatar. Does it have to do with any mathematics? May I personally message you?
