Narrative songs

Feb 07, 2012, 23:07

I've been listening to a couple of things recently where someone tells a story against a musical background.

First off, a fantastic live version of "The Gift", told with relish by John Cale.

Then a lovely story called Duck Diving, done as a Peel Session by Pulp.

It's an interesting genre, and one I'd like to hear more of. Any recommendations?
