H Connie Converse εξαφανίστηκε μυστηριωδώς τον Αύγουστο του ’74 σε ηλικία 50 ετών.
Elizabeth Eaton Converse (born August 3, 1924 – disappeared August 1974), was an American singer-songwriter and musician, best known under her professional name Connie Converse. She was active in New York City in the 1950s, and her work is among the earliest known recordings in the singer-songwriter genre of music.
In 1974, Converse left her family home in search of a new life and was not seen or heard from again. Despite the obscurity of her music during her lifetime, her work gained posthumous recognition after it was featured on a 2004 radio show. In March 2009, a compilation album of her work, How Sad, How Lovely, was released.
In between two tall mountains
There’s a place they call Lonesome
Don’t see why they call it Lonesome;
I’m never lonesome when I go there
See that bird sittin’ on my windowsill?
Well, he’s sayin’ whip-poor-will
All the night through
See that brook runnin’ by my kitchen door?
Well, it couldn’t talk no more
If it was you
Up that tree there’s sort of a squirrel thing
Sounds just like we did when we were quarrelling
In the yard I keep a pig or two
They drop in for dinner like you used to do
I don’t stand in the need of company
With everything I see
Talkin’ like you
Up that tree there’s sort of a squirrel thing
Sounds just like we did when we were quarrelling
You may think you left me all alone
But I can hear you talk without a telephone
I don’t stand in the need of company
With everything I see
Talkin’ like you
See that bird sittin’ on my windowsill?
Well, he’s sayin’ whip-poor-will
All the night through
Just, whip-poor-will
All the night through
In between two tall mountains
There’s a place they call Lonesome
Don’t see why they call it Lonesome;
I’m never lonesome now I live there
