In The Land Of The Sunshine People Know How To Groove


I still love the original version from Hot Chocolate
but this particular cover from 40 Thieves is quiet lovely too.
It's from a label which is my favorite lately called Permanent Vacation from Munich.

olympic airways


There is bunch of lads from the UK called Foals.And surprisingly they ve crafted a really good album.Quite a handfull of danceable indie slackness reminding ''vaguely'' the Rapture's first excellent album which set the trend for all forthcoming indie dance acts.The good thing about Foals is that their songs have a certain ethereal feeling which i find is due to the production by man of the moment Dave Sitek.Another good thing is that their singer is half Greek.I hope he won't have the fate of the otherwise lovely Mr Kapranos who is more of food critic these days than a rockstar.This is Olympic Airways,one of the best songs of Foals first album ''Antidotes''

james brown is dead

This is a picture i took in Brighton.I thought this building was really cool.Its a building tribute to the man who used to be the most hard working man in music.He looks like a saint or something.John Coltrane is worshiped as a saint somewhere in Africa.Maybe James Brown is a saint in Brighton.Saint James is watching over you..

balearic

Laidback's "Fly Away/Walking in Sunshine'' from the album "Keep Smiling" is a true Balearic classic.Im still wondering how can people from Denmark produce music like this.Anyway enough said.Here is the song in in its pure glory

nolan

If i could only be sure
Nolan Porter used to record with the Mother's of Invention after Zappa.His song ''If i could only be sure" from his 1971 album ''Nolan''was a huge northern soul hit and in my modest opinion its the best modern soul song ever.You can even ask Paul Waller about this..

love

LovePeople usually refer to Yoko Ono as cold hearted witch that cast some wicked spell upon John Lennon and thus making him leave the Beatles.Well everybody knows that's not the case.John Lennon(for me the most creative of all the Beatles) found in that strange looking female a partner in crime,a lover,an inspiration.Their pictures together depict in the most vivid way that magic relationship between them which is called love.Maybe most people couldn't get how can someone fall in love with a short,kind of ugly japanese girl.Songs usually give the answers to everything.In this case its a song from the last album he ever made and its called ''every man has a woman who loves him".
Here are the lyrics and the song:

Every man has a woman who loves him
In rain or shine or life or death
If he finds her in this life time He will know when he presses his ear to her breast

Why do I roam when I know youre the one
Why do I laugh when I feel like crying

Every woman has a man who loves her
Rise or fall of her life and death
If she finds him in this life time She will know when she looks into his eyes

Why do I roam when I know youre the one
Why do I run when I feel like holding you
Every man has a woman who loves him
If he finds her in this life timeHe will know

Every man has a woman who loves him

Summer


If i had to choose a picture and and a song for summer it would be this picture and the song would be chic's sao paolo.Singles are not always the best tracks.Sao Paolo is just one of my favourite tracks from their first album.I wonder though why did they choose Sao Paolo as the title.Sao Paolo isn't such an exotic place but then maybe it sounds better than Rio de Janeiro.
Anyway here is the song.Enjoy it and have a great summer.

Jar City by Baltasar Kormákur

Just watched this film from iceland.Really morbid atmosphere.Amazing photography.Sick plot.It makes you think how can people cope with living in a such unhospitable place like that.Bjork must know something about that..Well i would really like to land at Reykjavík sometime in my life just to have a look at this place.Do your self a favour and watch this film
