Crave or Craving may refer to:
Crave is the first studio album by contemporary Christian duo for KING & COUNTRY, released on 28 February 2012 by Fervent-Curb Records.
The album was recorded at several different studios in California and Nashville, Tennessee.
Christian Music Zine's Tyler Hess said "if you’re looking for something new and powerful in the contemporary pop scene, then for KING & COUNTRY’s debut full length album 'Crave' is definitely one to look out for as one of the best up and comers in the genre."
Cross Rhythms' Simon Eden said "as a rock album, this is quite a man's man album - powerful stadium rock with a sound like a roaring inferno."
Indie Vision Music's Jonathan Andre said "Crave is not your cliché album, and I was very intrigued to listen to it, to see if their sounds on the album were similar to that of their sister, Rebecca." Furthermore, Andre wrote "though not a perfect album, this is a solid one from two Australians that will definitely go far in the American industry!"
Crave is a one-act play by British playwright Sarah Kane. It was first performed in 1998 by the theatre company Paines Plough, with which Kane was writer-in-residence for the year, at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh. The play was initially presented under the pseudonym Marie Kelvedon; Kane used a pseudonym to avoid the distraction of her reputation for graphic staged violence from her previous works. Crave was Kane's fourth play. It is dedicated by the author to Mark Ravenhill.
The play reflects a stylistic departure from Kane's previous works, using a non-linear, poetic style, and is notable for its lack of staged violence that had been a hallmark of the author's previous work; this style is continued in her next and final work, 4.48 Psychosis. The dialogue is intertextual, and often it is unclear whom each line is addressed to. Much of the delivery of the text is left up to directorial interpretation. The author does not provide context, stage directions or descriptions of characters. The sex and gender of the four characters (A, B, C, and M) is only identifiable from context within the play.
I graduated at aim
Though I wouldn't say too soon
I left feeling stupider
For having learned the time
I couldn't believe that grown-ups could
Believe so many lies
Certainly I would not become
Privy to the wise
But now I'm my own anathema
Second with no reprieve
Won't ya fix me please
Off of my disease
And baby please take care of me
I'm a wreck as you can see
I'll be sleeping right here at your door
Till you throw me down the key
Assuagement of my angers
Resentments I protect
Harbor now like vanities
And lovers I reject
Assuagement of my judgements
And feelings I project
Are only things I see in me
I fail to inspect
Lay my head upon your chest
So I may hear your heart
Shut off from a rapacious god
Who's indebted me for thirst
I'm beaten too, I surrendered all
I lose, you always win
Bloody on your stoop
Please let me in
And baby please take care of me
I'm a wreck as you can see
I'll do anything you ask of me
