Goddess on a Hiway
"Goddess on a Hiway" is the first single from Mercury Rev's fourth studio album, ''Deserter's Songs''. The single was first released on November 2, 1998, and then re-issued on August 16, 1999. Two music videos were produced for the song, one directed by Anton Corbijn, the other directed by James & Alex (featured on the 1999 eCD single). B-sides include a cover of "I Only Have Eyes for You" featuring musician Sean O'Hagan.
The song's lyrics takes advantage of homonymy: the first verse contains the lines "I got us on a highway, I got us in a car..." This changes to "She's a goddess on a highway, a goddess in a car..."
In October 2011, ''NME'' placed it at number 122 on its list "150 Best Tracks of the Past 15 Years".〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=150 Best Tracks Of The Past 15 Years: #122 Mercury Rev - Goddess On A Hiway )〕
==Background==
"Goddess" was originally written by Mercury Rev frontman Jonathan Donahue in 1989 while he was still a member of The Flaming Lips. The song had been largely forgotten until it was found on an old cassette tape during the sessions for ''Deserter’s Songs''. Donahue was reluctant to work on the old song, and had to be convinced to resurrect it for the album.
