i have always loved this song. it’s a little witchy, even before stevie became too much so. by kl
amazing live cover by bowie, performing a jacques brel original (got like four versions of that) covered by scott walker first (got that too), then by bowie clearly and only then by marc almond (got that too). played here beautifully with acoustic and piano in 1973. wish i was there. by dd
very david sylvian/japan influenced in looks if not substance. nice from la la land. by dd
nine while nine by sisters of mercy. still a good track and good lyrics for the time. i saw that we had posted this other track by sisters of mercy a while back too, which was rerecorded and covered by nouvelle vague. by dd
ok don’t kill me for the 16 image post but im obsessing over nicholas mendez film. it’s like a cliff notes on pasolini and may i say it’s more successfully disturbing than the film itself because of its very sporadic, short clips. not sure i’ve seen another music video as effectively lingering as this. like to meet nicholas for a coffee one day and i’m sure ill be visiting pasolini on the screen again soon. by dd
