music video _ "la vie en rose", edith piaf

Des yeux qui font baisser les miens
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche
Voila le portrait sans retouche
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens
Quand il me prend dans ses bras,
Il me parle tout bas
Je vois la vie en rose
Il me dit des mots d'amour
Das mots de tous les jours,
Et ça me fait quelques choses
Il est entré dans mon coeur,
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause
C'est lui pour
Moi, moi pour lui dans la vie
Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie,
Et dès que je l'apercois
Alors je sens en moi, mon coeur qui bat...
Des nuits d'amour a plus en finir
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place
Les ennuis, des chagrins s'effacent
Heureux, heureux a en mourir

music video _ aucan, "crisis"

Aucan are an amazing italian electronic group. I listen them for the first time during a concert at Circolo Magnolia (Milan), the last summer. I love their music, and this Giulio Ragno Favero videoclip is something special.

the xx, night time lyrics

You mean that much to me
And it's hard to show
Gets hectic inside of me
When you go
Can I confess these things
To you
Well I don't know
Embedded in my chest
And it
Hurts to hold

I couldn't spill my heart
My eyes gleam looking in from the dark
I walk out in stormy weather
Hold my words, keep us together
Steady walking but bound to trip
Should release but just tighten my grip

Night time
Sympathize
I've been working on
White lies
So I'll tell the truth
I'll give it up to you
And when the day come
It will have all been fun
We'll talk about it soon

And I couldn't spill my heart
My eyes gleam
Looking in from the dark
I walk out in stormy weather
Hope my words keep us together
Steady walking but bound to trip
Should release but just tighten my grip

Night time
Sympathize
I've been working on
White lies
So I'll tell the truth
I'll give it up to you
And when the day come
It will have all been fun
We'll talk about it soon

I like the graphic impact of this music video (directed by Daisuke Kitayama).

metronomy, radio ladio

Do you remember that in one of my older post I was talking about Colin Henderson, and his graphic skills?
Well, he is the director of this stunning video "Radio Ladio" by Metronomy. I love the way he combine the color, the graphic attitude and the simplicity (but...what a great effect) of the idea.

skeleton boy, friendly fires

multisensorial stimulation

Today I listened the song from Donnie Darko soundtrack, "Mad World".
I found it so pervasive and emotional, so evocative... and strangely, I found this cover better than the original one (by Tears for fears).

So...try to listen to the music, understand the lyrics and at the same time sink with your gaze into the image above.
I think it can cause at least few minutes of reflections.

I don't like the music, but have a look at the videoclip after this short preview...It's very particular and funny!
