fade out again

this is one of my favorite music videos of all time and also one of my favorite radiohead song. great combo there. both video and song are so incredibly beautiful. i get the urge to watch it every now and then, but it's been, i think, over a year now. my brain just went "hang on.. street spirit!" all of a sudden.

so, enjoy. the video is from '96 so, considering, the effects still work. good job there video making people.

Taking songs for real

Just got to know that Lacuna Coil, "Italian gothic metal band from Milan" (as Wikipedia reports. And I'm not going to venture trying out some other definitions: I'm not into metal et similia at all), made an elegant cover of Dubstar's "Stars", a good ten years ago ("Halflife" e.p., 2000).
I'm not a fan of Lacuna Coil, though I respected them much (each time an italian band / artist reaches international success through appreciable music... thumbs up, anyway). But, needless to say, I prefer Dubstar's original version.
And, for the record, Sarah (Blackwood, the charming singer), is one of the thirty? fifty? billion girls / women I fell in love with during my 90s.
