About This Track
'Dagger (Electric)' by Slowdive is a 1996 track from the album 'I Saw the Sun'. The lyrics cast a “sunshine girl” who sleeps, falls, and dreams alone, while the narrator presents himself as both dagger and wound. Over the chorus, there is a sense of relentless background din, heard all the time, paired with numbness and a refusal to register pain. The vocal and lyric images keep circling the same idea of intimacy through harm, before a sparse whispering second verse adds a further soft edge to the unease.
