“She [Marianne Faithfull] had no fun with the tiny todger. I know he [Jagger] has got an enormous pair of balls, but it doesn’t quite fill the gap, does it?” - Keith, engaged in dick size measuring
So gifted and generous in her sharing of the human condition. A real voice and capacity to truth. A formative presence through several decades. A spirit that would not be conquered. Much to admire & to grieve.
"When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
Then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
A working class hero is something to be"
#MarianneFaithfull lived in The Shell Cottage @cartonhouse.bsky.social for a while. And many, many years ago, she stayed in Castletown House when Desmond Guinness hosted her. What a legend, what a talent. What a loss.

“Running for our lives
At least we’re pretending we are
Running for our lives we never get very far…”
Dear Michael, she was a glorious ray of light, and a unique voice.
And Michael, you a treasure and your art has brought joy to throughout my life.
Thank you. Just absolutely love your sense of humor.
She really believed in the power of the artist and the worth of the work.
