Here, watch these instead...Gogol Bordello
Beirut - Elephant Gun
art, creativity, logic and it's loopholes
Gogol Bordello, Man Man, Prince, The Wrens, Nation Of Ulysses, Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, The Pixies, Mozart, Stravinsky, Gypsy stuff, French Stuff, French-Canadian Stuff, French-French stuff (Brel, Dutronc, Bardot), Germans: Einsturzende Neubauten, punkish stuff. Anything, as long as it packs a punch. I have a Yma Sumac cd sitting on a Fear cd in front of me. I'm guessing that doesn't happen often.
New(ish) and Cool: Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, The Science Of Sleep, Magnolia Foreign Flicks: 8 1/2, La Dolce Vita, Wings Of Desire, Children Of Paradise, Amaelie, After Life Classics: My Man Godfry, It Happened One Night, It's A Wonderful Life and other Capra-corn, most anything by Billy Wilder, Ernst Lubitsch, Preston Sturges, Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Louise Brooks, Clara Bow, you get the idea.
Arrested Development, Family Guy, The Office (brit version), The Twilight Zone, The Prisoner, Secret Agent Man (AKA Danger Man), Battlestar Galactica, Rome (not great, but I'm got kind of hooked)
Cloud Atlas (or anything else by David Mitchell), Of Human Bondage (a Somerset Maugham kick is a good kick), One Hundred Years Of Solitude (poetic realism at it's best), I Served The King Of England (Hrabel maybe obscure, but what a wonderful find), Hunger, Perfume, Thomas Hardy, James Baldwin, Oscar Wilde. I recently finished Kafka On The Shore and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami. Very enjoyable.
Chaplin, Rembrandt, and MozartThat's not a bad little trinity.
