Into a Swan

"Into a Swan" is a song written and performed by Siouxsie Sioux (Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Creatures) for her debut solo album Mantaray. It was released in the UK on W14 on 3 September 2007 in a variety of formats.

History

The song was seen as a statement of identity and transformation by critics. Siouxsie saw it as "Recognizing that feeling that I suppose gets you from I guess adolescent when you get your first feeling of confidence of stepping out on your own and I think it is just getting that confidence to move forwards and continue". It is a motivation.

The single was Siouxsie's first solo release in her 30-year recording career — her only other releases aside from the Banshees or the Creatures were the "Interlude" single, a duet with Morrissey in 1994; another duet with Marc Almond titled "Threat of Love"; and a collaboration with Basement Jaxx on the title track of their album Kish Kash.

Aside from the digital download, "Into a Swan" was released as a series of 7-inch vinyl singles as well as CD singles, containing an exclusive slipcase and fold-out poster, as well as B-sides as "Swansway" and a reprise version of "Into a Swan". A 12-inch single with remixes by Andrew Weatherall and Mekon were released on 1 October.

Into A Swan

Into A Swan

by: Siouxsie

What in the world is happening?
What in the world could this be?
I'm on the verge of an awakening
A new kind of strength for me
I feel a force I've never felt before
I don't want to fight it anymore
Feelings so strong can't be ignored
I burst out, I'm transformed
Rising up, shaking it up, a yesterday dreary
Graceful and strong, no more for long
Today's a jubilee
Don't be surprised this change is my design
I feel a force I've never felt before
I don't want to fight it anymore
Feelings so strong can't be ignored
I burst out, I'm transformed
I feel a force I've never felt before
I can't hold it down I've just got to soar
And laugh in the face that is vulture law
I burst out, I'm transformed
I feel a force I've never felt before
I don't want to fight it anymore
Feelings so strong can't be ignored
I burst out, I'm transformed
I feel a force I've never felt before
I can't hold it down I've just got to soar
And laugh in the face that is vulture law
I burst out, I'm transformed
I burst right out into a swan
I burst out into a swan
I feel a force
I don't want to fight it
I feel a force
