MEDIAEVAL BAEBES
The Mediaeval Baebes have established a legendary reputation for themselves by reviving ancient text and song and turning historical fantasy into reality for the pleasure of a modern audience. The band was formed in 1996 by Katharine Blake, the lead singer of the avant garde gothic rock band, Miranda Sex Garden, and quickly found success in 1997 with their debut album, Salva Nos, which was certified Silver within weeks of release and was Virgin Classics fastest selling debut album. The bands 1998 follow-up, Worldes Bylsse, blazed into the Classical Charts at No.1 to widespread, critical acclaim. July 05 saw them return with their fifth studio album, Mirabilis, which is already considered by some to be their finest work to date.
Recognised as the originators of a new breed of acts responsible for spicing up the classical world, the Mediaeval Baebes have always pushed the boundaries in terms of attitude and musical approach. A provocative collective of beautiful maidens, the Baebes comprises six young women vocalists, composers, instrumentalists and dancers - from all corners of the globe, who delight in their reputation for wantonness whilst singing songs from an age of innocence.

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace...
Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
A precious weekend as you deserve in the company of The Silent Watcher New EP out : "Mourning Shadow" Cryptic Lyrics for those who can read it up in the picture section. -W-

Secrets of binding spirits, Free in the grace of swept tears, Laced with joy in golden showers, A cup of liquid to the wine vapours.
Secrets of leisures pleasured furtive, In my heart in silver thread, Silken bound gossamer forged in forbidden light, Laced with joy in golden rain, A cup of honey fermented again...
Lower the heart rate with a temple throbbing, Seared in sealed remorse, Gods in the entwinned candle flames, Rasping chortled vocalised, A rune in echo, Its hearts are beating, The tears of anguish release the pain, Lingered languid kiss of night, Swept in gales of emotional bliss.
Clasped inside a being not seen, The flesh is only one life... Eternity brings an awakened dawn, Over the hills of sensual time...
Quicken the heart in tune with some beaten drum, Enveloped by love so true. A sex so sacred ...her cup of goddess,
Licking with my soul-tongue, Lolling with dripping yearning hot, Fires inside all my aura-body, Swirling with magic of my earth.
Wept with dews so squirting fountain, Swept inside a chaos of lust, Against her firm breast mountain, Kept a secret of love's risen from ashen dust!
Listen carefully to your wisdom, It wants, It loves, It gives, It is!
Secrets of binding spirits, Free in the grace of swept tears, Laced with joy in golden showers, A cup of liquid to the wine vapours.
