Mikis Theodorakis, The Walkabouts - The Train Leaves At 8 [Μίκης Θεοδωράκης, The Walkabouts - Το τρένο φεύγει στις οκτώ]
The Walkabouts is an American rock band formed in Seattle in 1984. The core members are vocalist Carla Torgerson and vocalist and songwriter Chris Eckman. Although the rest of the line-up has changed occasionally, for most of the time the other members have been Michael Wells, Glenn Slater and Terri Moeller.
The band draws inspiration from folk and country music, particularly Townes Van Zandt, Neil Young and Johnny Cash, but also from other types of artists and musical styles such as Scott Walker, Leonard Cohen, French chanson and Jacques Brel. Their sound is typically rich, with string arrangements and keyboards in addition to the standard rock instruments.
In reviews the band's music is often described as melancholic or mellow, while Eckman's lyrics, concerning such themes as human relations, loneliness and restlessness, are often emphasized as poetic.
The Walkabouts have achieved commercial success and a strong fanbase in Europe, where they have done promotion and extensive touring since early 1990s.
They have occasionally even made it high on the record charts in countries such as Greece and Norway.

The stars, escaping,
Evaporate in acrid mists
[...]Night blows through me.
I am clear with its bitterness.
I tinkle along brick canyons
Like a crystal leaf
