Still falling
Breathless and on again
Inside today
Beside me today
Around, broken in two
Till your eyes shed
Into dust
Like two strangers
Turning into dust
Till my hand shook
With the way I fear

I could possibly be fading
Or have something more to gain
I could feel myself growing colder
I could feel myself under your fate
Under your fate

It was you
Breathless and tall
I could feel my eyes turning into dust
And two strangers
Turning into dust
Turning into dust

Perfect song to follow up the Latino set!
Great music, thank you from Holland.
Ahhhh, Hope Sandoval. What a voice. 
Search on Youtube for "Beck - Loser + Mazzy Star - Into Dust Mashup".

Thank me later ;)
Beutiful Voice

more beautiful than when I laid in bed dreaming out the windows of Bruce Hall, UNT, 1991. Especially since the album came out in 1993
I was young when this came out but I remember hearing it somewhere. Love it. Great album.

yes, yes, oh yes!
This would have been recorded around spring or summer 1993.  I've been noticing there was a lot of sad music that came out that year.  I blame REM and some of those dark tracks from Automatic For The People... it seemed to have started with them.

I was a young teenager when this came out.  Back then this music seemed terribly important for some reason.  Now, when I hear this song I feel nostalgic for the time when music like this was terribly important.  Perhaps, in the end it actually is (terribly important that is) and I have just lost track of something along the way.



I wonder the same. For me the music only gets as important as it used to be when it reminds me of a personal experience or I can strongly relate to it in some way. In those times I connect with the music even more than I did when I was young. Occurrences of this are relatively rare though, but seem to happen more than I care to admit due to the high volume of RP that I listen to! I'm not sure if this is related, but recent research has shown that the teenage brain has somewhere about 10 times (1000 percent) of the hormones of a full adult. All those hormones sloshing around may have messed a bit with our perceptions at the time. Or perhaps it was something else messing with my perceptions at the time too, lol!
Binge watching Bosch and this comes on as Maddie makes her way into Borrego canyon... 
Hope has a great voice! Ten out of ten!
So timeless, this needs an "11" rating!!! 
like this album alot. (yes, a lame comment but there you are!)
updating: just read the comment about sad music and am perplexed. can we help where music takes us, and perhaps where we need to be taken? why do  we have to try to analyze every lyric or even where the feel of the piece takes us? can we not simply let ourselves be moved by either what where we are taken or when a lyric just seems devastating or very emotive of something we feel or think we understand at hearing it?

The whole concept of minimalism was really lost on you, wasn't it?
Such forlorn, poignant words. And sparse music. Brilliant. Thank you, RP.

Simplicity is actually not simple to accomplish. Mazzy star was without a doubt one of the examples of simple yet complex and beautiful music.

Always thought  this song had a Doors "This is the End" vibe. Which of course made me like it right away.
They're auctioning off David Roback's personal gear right now. RIP

This beautiful, ethereal, contemplative piece is wonderful.   In fact, the whole disk is wonderful! Highly recommended.
always like Mazzy Star - but this tune matches my mood tonight. Doing taxes and have been rating everything high - for the distraction factor?

Hard to top Nico's cover of "The End"...She sings it like a martyr, burning at the
stake. signaling through the flames...

Sad for Hope, dealing with the loss of David Roback. Sad for us all. 
Favorite song of a good friend of mine who passed away many years ago. Hearing this song always brings me back to Williamsburg Brooklyn in 1996, when I lived this song, played it over and over again in an attempt to grab a wisp of smoke, and have never been the same since.

Great tune.
Leave LZ alone.
Love em I do
Rest is peace David, friend.
Rest in peace Keith, friend.
This song is pure musical perfection for me. An amazing work!

I would swear I hear a cello expressing deep bass notes and resonant emotion underneath the sweet guitar and Hope Sandoval's marvelous voice; but Wiki says it's a violin.

Can someone more musically experienced than I am tell me which is true?

😍

more dull Mazzy Star. 
Magnificent and sparse, Mazzy Star at their best. A dirge on existential despair.

hypnotical, like most of their songs
Not the first time I've heard this.  I want to like it more but I can't figure it out.  still, give her credit....

Not complaining, love the song. . .but didn't I hear this a few hours ago?

And yes, I listen to RP for hours and hours on end. This might be a personal problem.
This going anywhere or can I nap for a bit?

nearly perfect. falls apart a bit at the end in an attempt to "resolve" things.
there is no resolution. better to have just let it fade

Not likely.  Maybe an unexpected link to the rest of humanity. or a realization of how beautifully a simple feeling can be expressed by a beautiful person.

I always feel that an artist arrives at a point where a piece of work truly defines who they are and what they are about.  For me, this song defines Mazzy Star like no other.

Dead-on, romeotuma.  This song in particular... I heard the first strains of it, after dealing with a world of cats in heat, a brother in debt, and dogs freaked out by thunder... and I just took a deep breath, closed my eyes, and everything melted.
This song is yum. {#Bounce}

Thank you, Calypsus_1, as always, for the visual... *hugs you*
 
miss you so much, Cynaera...  everybody in my alien space crafts loves this song...  we love sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll...  get it while you can...

A beautiful song. Like most of Mazzy Star's stuff is.
...just love almost everything Mazzy (Hope) Star does
That was just perfect.  I was working away here at my computer, and then this song started and I was just transported to another...I don't know what.  But far far away from here.  Very hypnotic. Came to when it ended.  Gorgeous.
alas,
rating depends sometimes  even of full moon and eclipses- take 8 most excelent)) great song, though

Sounds a bit like Velvet Underground to me..... and that's not a BAD thing....
They have a new album coming out. First one in 14 years or something like that.
Goosebumps!!  This song is incredibly beautiful....
"I can feel myself growing colder..."
Yeah, no shit honey.  You and me both and it's sunny and 70-degrees where I am.  PSD here I come!  Click
Possibly one of the best produced records of the 90's and David Roback is a genius.

so soothing
more magnificent Mazzy!
"Dust to Dust" pays tribute to the heroes of one of gaming's most epic sagas.

In April 2010, "Ashes to Ashes" set a grim stage fraught with desperation, but a glimmer of hope remained as Delta clung to the ideal of brotherhood. Months later came the E3 2011 trailer featuring "War Pigs," and new images of resilience as Sera's last remaining human forces rallied in an explosive fight for survival. Now, set to the song "Into Dust" by Mazzy Star, the stirring new broadcast trailer follows the full saga of Marcus and Delta's journey across all three "Gears of War" games as they charge head-on into the end.

I was a Mazzy Star fan right from the beginning. Always loved this album the most and still do. Spent many late nights in bed with the headphones on, pressing them against my ears, absorbing every bit of this fantastic record.

Nice transition from that Charlie sexton track, Bill...I love when the first couple notes take u to "that" place...I thought and was hoping it was this track - and it was...natch.
Best radio anywhere, ever
I have this CD - thanks, RP, for reminding me of why I need to keep it in my immediate playlist. Geez, I have to go write now.
My first time for this song. Beautiful.
Sounds like Jefferson Airplane.
This is a brilliant track, even though it has been over played recently on adverts for mobile phones and games.
I heard this on the TV commercial for Gears of War 3 and recognized it as Mazzy Star right a way, great song!
Really Good

It's never too late to get back to the music. I lost track of friends, family, home, priorities... But the music brought me back. Once I could sit and just listen to a song with my eyes closed and my mind open, things slowly came back into focus for me.

Maybe music will always be terribly important, and all that's needed is a few precious minutes to surrender to it. Give it a chance, slowly. Life has a way of pulling us away from what keeps us rooted and sane. Take a little time every day to listen to one song completely - lock yourself in the bathroom if that's what it takes (well, that's what I had to do.) Bring music back into your life, because if it was once important, it still is.
