Jacques Brel, Scott Walker, David Bowie, Marc Almond – my death: WOOOOOW!!!
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

Pier Paolo Pasolini and the scissor sisters: invisible light
pet shop boys? frankie goes to hollywood? relax… it’s the scissor sisters. not a fan of the band nor the song but the video references to pasolini & bunuel are awesome and unexpected for such a pop video. some nice moments and a nice enough girl mireia contreras. produced by canada, director nicholas mendez. by dd

uber kool: lescop la foret
Un coup de feu dans la nuit
Une douleur glaciale qui s’élance
La Foret soudain qui frémit
Puis s’installe le silence
Tu te tiens là assourdie
Tu prononces la sentence
Le deuxième coup est parti
Et fait bientôt la différence
Dans la Foret je te retrouve à l’heure opportune
Un rendez vous improvisé sous la lune
Sourires crispés, situation compliquée
Je sens ton souffle qui me frôle le coup
Un pistolet chargé me caresse la joue
Tu me dis “cette fois c’est moi qui joue”
Dans la foret la première détonation raisonne
Un coup de feu puis deux, mon corps qui frissonne
Puis doucement s’écroule
Plus rien, plus un bruit
Personne n’a rien vu par chance
Pour moi maintenant c’est fini
Et tout le monde s’en fout, tu penses!
Te voilà maintenant qui t’enfuis
Tirant ta révérence
La foret de nouveau frémit
Et je profite du silence
Dans la Foret je te retrouve à l’heure opportune
Un rendez vous improvisé sous la lune
Sourires crispés, situation compliquée
Je sens ton souffle qui me frôle le cou
Un pistolet chargé me caresse la joue
Tu me dis “cette fois c’est moi qui joue”
Dans la foret la première détonation raisonne
Un coup de feu puis deux, mon corps qui frissonne
Puis doucement s’écroule… by ars

cover girl: “the model” track by kraftwerk re-covered by jihae
you can not appreciate electronic music without considering ralf hütter and florian schneider as simply divine. this track, by our lovely friend jihae, is a beautiful cover of the original and then some. the video features actress and sometimes model paz de la huerta (from HBO’s boardwalk empire), and is directed by another one of our friends, the russian born photographer/painter yelena yemchuk. last the piece is being posted here by our great friend and lovely colleague dd… sorry, we have a shortage of friends, so when we find them we have to mention it. track available on itunes under jihae model from album “fire burning rain”. by dd

the original occupy wall streeter: fela kuti authority stealing…
fela kuti – authority stealing (rehearsals with footage from lagos)
catch am! catch am! tief tief tief… talking about music greats… saw a nice doc. film on fela titled “fela kuti: music is the weapon” you can see parts on you tube or get the film on netflix. loved this one song which i did not have, it was released on fela’s own kalakuta label originally as no other label would touch it at the time. finally 20 years later, MCA records released it in the year 2000. i just got it and it’s been playing daily! here’s the clip from the docu and the song authority stealing. by xy
