Marianne Faithfull - Witches' Song Lyrics
Shall I see you tonight, sister, bathed in magic greet?
Shall we meet on the hilltop where the two roads meet?
We will form the circle, hold our hands and chant
Let the great one know what it is we want
Danger is great joy, dark is bright as fire
Happy is our family, lonely is the ward
Sister, we are waiting on the rock and chain
Fly fast through the airwaves, meet with pride and truth
Danger is great joy, dark is bright as fire
Happy is our family, lonely is the ward
Father, we are waiting for you to appear
Do you feel the panic, can you see the fear?
Mother, we are waiting for you to give consent
If there's to be a marriage, we need contempt
Danger is great joy, dark is bright as fire
Happy is our family, lonely is the ward

I saw her sing this song in an old Brooklyn Church several years ago. We all sat in the pews. Then she sang (Why ya do it ) and I thought the walls would come crumbing down! She's a force to be reckoned with to say the least.

I've only just rediscovered "Witches' song". What a great song. I wonder why I've never heard Marianne sing it on stage, and I've been to all her concerts in Denmark, but I could be wrong?

While I probably first heard of Marianne Faithfull decades ago, possibly as a reference to the Stones, it's funny how I really "discovered" her now, thanks to re-watching Thelma and Louise on tv. What a life she's had, what a beautiful voice her hardships have gifted her and what amazing songs!

Supernatural Reference to Marianne Faithful--- Witches deserve more respect than these lyrics project. Ms Faithful likely was an Anton LaVey or an OTO member who played upon Pagan traditions. Ideally of course the very same father/mother figures of pagan tradition inhabit the astral or spirit world of this planet and they pretend to be anyone a gullible Human desires to see.. The same goes for average citizens as well as for athists and elites who think their monetary value makes them 'better' or less capable of being deceived. When Ms Faithful made her debut with 'As Tears Go By' she was making a direct statement related to how the inner circle of the elites were using children in their rituals to summon Goetia Demons or just simply 'evil spirits' to use the vernacular. Both systems of official and non-official control still have devotees being trained in life to embrace another soul as more equal or 'better' than themselves. Witches, church members and Secret Society members who supplicate to an external entity of ANY kind are being fooled.... I'm here BECAUSE a researcher named Michael TSARION has published video documentaries about his suspicions that Marianne Faithful was highly involved in the British version of the Laurel Canyon military/ CIA community. IN other words these government paid singers and performers were on-stage to pervert witchcraft as well as to mislead a whole generation away from becoming involved in what the elite American aristocratic families have been doing. The elites used to vilify anyone who didn't bend a knee to the mythologies crafted out of Sumerian historical texts by the Flavian Family and earlier by the Cohenic descendants of Zarisutra/ Noah. The pentagram and Crowleys unicursal version of it are both related directly to the 'Mother' and 'Father' of the Human species who wore horns of divinity... There's much more to be said now as the events and characters surrounding the post WW2 era are being exposed...

@Brian roche I'm not sure she would be phased by such a comment. This is a women who has seen a lot of life. She even lived on a wall for a while. I don't know if she ever turned a trick (none of my business) but I don't think she would disrespect someone who did.

0.txt - copied and pasted from view-source:http://web.archive.org/web/20170515182836/http://8ch.net/b/res/7027063.html
This thread is partly archived at: https://hollaforums.com/thread/7027063/miscellaneous/stop-scrolling-and-read-this.html -- a spammy website and page which you shouldn't go to; also, I know for a fact that that web page modified the text contents of this thread and omitted various one posts,* post dates, post numbers, etc. For an examples of this, consider the following:
* ">trump's big government is going to shit up the internet
>will probably kill 4chan and Holla Forums, two major players in getting him elected
What a shocker, Trump's a fucking retard who hired a man who hates the internet to decide what to do with the internet." The text quoted with ">" does not appear anywhere else on the page. Also, there is other text which was originally quoted with ">" that only appears once. It is unlikely that all of the quoted text only appeared once in the original thread. In the hollaforums.com the ">" character was removed, but it is still identifiable that said lines were originally prefixed with ">" in order to make green text. In the acutal thread no one quoted anyone else with ">"; green text was only used in order to change the meaning of the text.
* How that kinda dumb website also modified the text: "8chan" or the link to 8ch.net or 8chan.net or whatever the URL was at that time to the root directory of the website was replaced with "Holla Forums" ("will probably kill 4chan and 8chan, two major players in getting him elected" → "will probably kill 4chan and Holla Forums, two major players in getting him elected").
* Original whitespace was simplified: "cynical mass- rectification of severhead (part 3) [best song ever OP]" → "1. cynical mass- rectification of severhead (part 3) [best song ever OP]"
* The name of most of the posters in this thread was probably "Anonymous" or some anonymous name. This website made all of them random occidental names. Sometimes multiple posts from the same poster were asigned different names to make the site look more legit; however, ironiclly it made it look less legit.
* *The only omitted/missing post: "49 [\n] 50" (2 posts where the one between the two is missing) → "49 [\n] >>7027268 [\n] 50" (3 posts, from the original thread)
The aforewritten https://hollaforums.com/ web page had the following text: "29 months ago" (when viewed in 10/13/2019) and "30 months ago" (when viewed in 10/18/2019)
So it was May 14-18, 2017
8chan thread from May 2017
Previous identifier: 8chan_thread_May_2017
This was probably posted to /pol/: http://web.archive.org/web/*/https://8ch.net/pol/res/* I had a realization some days after writing this (I wrote this before 10/20/2019); it was posted to /b/. Somethings were crossed out as a result of this realization.
