Marc Ribot - Silent Movies

a clip from Danish X-factor (never thought I would make a reference to that... )
re-doing You're The One That I Want - like reeeally re-doing
It makes me think of what Tori Amos did with Smells Like Teen Spirit

What do you think?

Not available in my country, can't watch it . But generally I agree that X-Factor is one of the better casting shows. Well, I mean "better" in the way of the lesser of all the evils.

The Jim Jones Revue - Dishonest John

Considering what happens to him in this video I think Jim had a lot of say in the direction of it!

I think I've read comments mentioning this song in connection with 'Let England Shake' album.

Great anti-war song. Kate looks absolutely gorgeous, of course.

Kate Bush - Army Dreamers

'B.F.P.O.*'
Army dreamers.
'Mammy's hero.'
'B.F.P.O.'
'Mammy's hero.'

Our little army boy
Is coming home from B.F.P.O.
I've a bunch of purple flowers
To decorate a mammy's hero.

Mourning in the aerodrome,
The weather warmer, he is colder.
Four men in uniform
To carry home my little soldier.

'What could he do?
Should have been a rock star.'
But he didn't have the money for a guitar.
'What could he do?
Should have been a politician.'
But he never had a proper education.
'What could he do?
Should have been a father.'
But he never even made it to his twenties.
What a waste --
Army dreamers.
Ooh, what a waste of
Army dreamers.

Tears o'er a tin box.
Oh, Jesus Christ, he wasn't to know,
Like a chicken with a fox,
He couldn't win the war with ego.

Give the kid the pick of pips,
And give him all your stripes and ribbons.
Now he's sitting in his hole,
He might as well have buttons and bows.

'What could he do?
Should have been a rock star.'
But he didn't have the money for a guitar.
'What could he do?
Should have been a politician.'
But he never had a proper education.
'What could he do?
Should have been a father.'
But he never even made it to his twenties.
What a waste --
Army dreamers.
Ooh, what a waste of
Army dreamers.
Ooh, what a waste of all that
Army dreamers,
Army dreamers,
Army dreamers, oh...

('B.F.P.O.')
Did-n-did-n-did-n-dum...
Army dreamers.
Did-n-did-n-did-n-dum...
('Mammy's hero.')
('B.F.P.O.')
Army Dreamers.
('Mammy's hero.')
('B.F.P.O.')
No harm heroes.
('Mammy's hero.')
('B.F.P.O.')
Army dreamers.
('Mammy's hero.')
('B.F.P.O.')
No harm heroes.

* B.F.P.O - British Forces Posted Overseas.
