Mogwai Versus Nosferatu (Part 01)
Mogwai Versus Nosferatu (Part 02)
Mogwai Versus Nosferatu (Part 03)
These videos are great and why do I see greatness on them?
Mogwai's music is perfect for this music with all its crescendos and the silence beneath the guitars sometimes.
It's my favourite band; but if Murnau was alive he would be proud of these videos; in here we see a mix of classic with improvisation and it works, doesn't it?
http://videowashere.blogspot.com/2007/05/mogwai-livela-route-du-rock-2001.html
One of my favourite songs of Mogwai and alive with great sound.
In here, we found everything:
Dreams
Nightmares
Chaos
Order
Balance
The instruments are merely a tool to sensations that exist on our subconscious.

Another entrance into pure balance,:
we see here all in sync.
The flute as a bird; the chords of the cellos as a crying and the guitars lamenting thoughts expressed without words.
A powerful song that I think's one of the greatest of all times.
MOGWAI - Travel Is Dangerous
That's what I like on Mogwai also; they transport us into the realms of dreams and faeries, while giving us with the titles of their songs, the basic notions of life.
They also become interested on animation; like a way of telling our inner child that everything's connected:
Books; Music, Animation, Photographs, paintings, Movies.
But above it all:
Dreams.
MOGWAI - Stanley Kubrick
This song is an homage to the great Kubrick.
A calm song to mark the difference between the two personalities that he had:
Calm and frenzy.
catching a glimpse of the video, it transports us into a probable Kubrick's childhood with those old movies that he (and myself of course) adored.
MOGWAI - Friend Of The Night
Another great song and video by Mogwai.
The title tells everything (the words aren't needed)
I love one more time the bridge made from music to animation.

| The Pogues |
This one's a classic from The Pogues (a beautiful video) with the peculiar atmosphere that the city (siam) has.
An homage also to a city that suffered a lot on the vietnam war.
Shane mcgowan voice and lyrics transport us into a sweet melancholy.
It isn't Hiroshima; but is also a city that passed a lot, because of our fellow americans.
 |
| Tindersticks |
Tiny tears
Beautiful video that describes the lyric and the melancholic voice of Stuart Staples (who sings a little bit similar to our portuguese "Fado")
Tindersticks - Dying Slowly
Great.
Tindersticks opened here a bridge with animation. The video; the music and the lyrics are in total sync.
Tindersticks / Traveling Light
Everybody are travelling light on this era; but Tindersticks, tell us to slow a bit and relax, a great song full of raw.
Once again I notice here the bridge of music with photography.
 |
| Tom Waits |
The man who knows it all, that puts us all on a constant surprise with lyrics that talk about simple but complex things.
His voice changes a lot with all the whiskey that he drinks and all the fags that he smokes, but who cares?
He tells us everything that we must know.
 |
| Peter Murphy |
Peter Murphy interview
Peter Murphy - Final Solution
Peter Murphy Cuts You Up
Peter Murphy - Hit Song
Peter Murphy - All Night Long
I don't like to talk much about Peter; because everybody knows that he gave us everything and all we ever got was cold (back on the days of Bauhaus)
The videos are great, the songs and the lyrics are full of energy.
Some of them are melancholic, some of them a shout from his inner self.
 |
| Nick Cave |
nick cave and the bad seeds wings of desire
Red Right Hand
Nick Cave - Straight to you
Nick Cave- into my arms
Nick's always right; he can put desire into words, chaos and order unified.
Lyrics that makes us wonder how simplicity's and who's the person who can be indifferent with:
Into my arms (the lyric and the video)
Straight to you ( the same thing)
or his debut on the fabulous movie " The wings of desire"?
 |
| Bowie |
On the 70's bowie knew that the world was changing minute by minute and was almost a visionary, because the lyric tells us what happened on the 90's and what's happenning on the 21st Century.
Rock'n roll Suicide - Live in Japan
Was he a Rock and roll suicide?
Sure he was; he created and killed all these characters:
Major Tom
Ziggy Stardust
Alladin Sane
The thin white duke
and then on the album "Outside" created several and killed them on that album.
David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust
Another character that he created.
At that time people began to wonder:
- Who's Ziggy?
- Who's Bowie?
Has he read Fernando Pessoa?
I'm positively sure that he did.
David Bowie - China Girl
A song about love, betrayal and the bridge between ocident and orient ( so common today).
The video's beautiful.
David Bowie - Let's Dance
His hitsong; I can provide here some info:
-Do you remember a story from Hans Christian Andersen; where a girl only danced with her red shoes that were made of magic?
Under Pressure - Bowie and Lennox
Queen and David Bowie - Under Pressure
In here, we see Bowie doing what he wanted more, putting people under pressure:-)
No, the main theme here's the stress and the rush of our lives.
Love Annie's voice also.
Absolute Beginners - David Bowie
A song for the beginners on the art of love (what a beautiful song and a beautiful video)
David Bowie - Jump They Say
Dedicated to his brother, who literally jumped (he was schizofrenic).
I think that memories were launched from Bowie's heart and also a cry for help to understand, people that need help with this terrible disease.
David Bowie - Life On Mars (Live)
A beautiful song; a powerful video (he was always on other planets; was he tired of ours?)
Space Oddity David Bowie
The beginning of Major Tom's Era and the spacial voyages that Bowie did.
The birth of Major Tom (few years before, the man had landed on the moon)
David Bowie Ashes to Ashes So; Major Tom was dead by this time or disappeared (who knows), bowie on a great concert that put everybody enthusiastic with his mimic, his songs and his powerful voice on Sound and Vision Tour. Who else to talk wisely about life on other planets and people missing in space or dying in it, with a contemporary vision that can be found here on the International Network?
Bauhaus - In The Flat Field
It's boring doing nothing (or so Peter Murphy said that on that time)
A great concert, where we've everything: Theater; mimic, German expressionism, music and literature.
Great song indeed.
Bauhaus - Dark Entries
The title says it all; not gothic, but releasing our Mr Hyde on the streets or on the green.
Bauhaus - Bela Lugosi's Dead
This video was taken from "The hunger" by Tony Scott, where Bowie appears as a vampire that's dying.
Their first recorded song and dedicated to the man who didn't need to speak english very well or to bite necks, while seeing its blood, sensuality was on lugosi's dracula and that was what counted for Bauhaus.

| Sisters of Mercy |
Andrew giving us another bridge, music with historical facts based on Lucretia Borgia.
Was her, his reflection?
A great voice, a video that transports us into the past and the present.

| Joy Division |
Loved this video, the poet that appeared in life immortalized.
-Why haven't their friends helped him, he was begging for help.
tribute to joy division
joy division decades tribute
JOY DIVISION ceremony tribute video
Reservoir Dogs
Four videos that I loved with tributes to a man that was on pills today for sure; this world had plenty of chaos for him.
Joy Division - Day of the Lords (live)
Joy Division - Dead Souls (live)
Ian Curtis live; his voice was a normal voice, but "where have they been?"
Joy Division - Love will tear us apart
Problems with his wife or with his world; who knows?
Joy Division - Atmosphere
Fantastic tribute by corbjin, when Ian commited suicide.
Bridge with photography and the black and white telling us that there's a little bit of good and evil on us.
It must come from within us to make the proper balance in life.

| Spacemen 3 |
Spacemen 3 - Hypnotized (Full Version)
Spacemen 3 - Suicide (Live), First Half
Spacemen 3 Interview - Sonic Boom and Jason Pierce...
Spiritualized - She Kissed Me
Spiritualized - Let It Flow
spiritualized - come together
Spiritualized-Ladies and Gentlemen We are Floating...
Spacemen 3 - I Love You
SPACEMEN 3 WALKING WITH JESUS
Jason Pierce leds us into worlds full with magic; influenced by the beatnik generation:
Kerouac; burroughs, ginsberg (another bridge with literature and science fiction)
Phillip K.Dick
While putting us on space; releasing ourselves from the pills, giving us freedom to live on our brains with music.
Important bands that made history with a new kind of music that people didn't understood (maybe them also) but loved immensely.
 |
| My Bloody Valentine |
My Bloody Valentine - Realise
Cigarette in your Bed - my bloody valentine
My Bloody Valentine, Only Shallow
My Bloody Valentine - Soon
My Bloody Valentine - Soon (live)
My bloody Valentine - Soft as snow
The band that put the concept of "shoegazing" (because of the guitar player being concentrated so much on the music that was always looking at his shoes)
I feel that dreams and reality are always on their songs and even Sofia Coppolla noticed that and asked Kevin Shields to do some songs for her movie " Lost in translation".
The videos give us also the sense of spirituality; dreams and reality.
Lost In Translation - Bob Harris sings More Than T...
lost in translation - charlotte sings karaoke
Great Karaoke (as they should be), people enjoying the songs while feelling them
Love the movie; sofia connected everything; photography, music, literature and the basic notions of life.
One of the best movies on this century.
Siouxsie and The Banshees - Face To Face
A song that Tim Burton asked Siouxsie to do to his movie "Batman Returns"; Burton always loved Siouxsie and The Banshees and they made a great tribute to the batman movie and its main characters; Batman and Catwoman.
Face to face; no masks and no telling lies.
The video's a beauty.

the chain 2 - phil mulloy
Phil Mulloy - The sexlife of a chair
Phil Mulloy - The Sound of Music
Now; animation by Phil Mulloy.
The man who told me to draw with my left hand and improve with the right to draw better.
The man who paid me a beer and traded one cigarette for two drawings from him and I talked and talked with him about London and he said to me:
" You know more about London than me and I'm from London." while laughing and laughing and me also.
Talked with him about jack in the green (a myth in England made by a portuguese long time ago)
He mixes everything; drama, comedy, horror on a singular style.
I would describe him as the "Lynch" of animation, a nice fellow that was a warrior (talked with me for 2 hours and resisted:-) )
Not the common artist (hope that he puts the credits on Jack in the green with my name as he promised on his next episode of "the christies" hahahahahaha )
Stardust Movie Trailer - De Niro.Pfeiffer
A powerful story of love written in comic book form passed to the big screen with De Niro and the great Michelle Pfeiffer.
The Day I Swapped My Dad for 2 Goldfish
'Mr. Punch' Trailer #2
Two movies that will be made by Neil Gaiman and Dave Mckean, based on their graphic novels.
Me And My Big Ideas
Dave Mckean - Sonnet 138
Coraline
Reason. - Dave MCKean
The Week Before - Dave McKean
It seems that comics are everywhere (one must have the ideas)
Neil gaiman and Dave mckean started making comics books; passed to animation and now to movies and literature (and yes; they do comic books also now)
Neil won everything that was possible to won on comic books (won even an Hugo award for best fantasy/science fiction story with a comic book from " The Sandman" with people like: Stephen King or Harlan Ellison in competition also with their novels)
Dave Mckean illustrated everything; comic books; books from: Stephen king and Iain Sinclair (my favourite writer) cd's covers, commercials for Nike and Adidas and now made the beautiful movie "Mirrormask", his short movies are a delight for the eyes and soul.

Brothers Quay - Stille Nacht V - Dog Door
Are we still married? (Stille Nacht II) by Quay Br...
Brothers Quay -1985- The Epic of Gilgamesh
The memorable quay brothers who make animation never seen before.
They don't need words (whispers are sufficient) and they create bridges also,on their animations, if we look closely, we can see:
Man Ray (Photography)
Kafka (literature)
German Expressionism (Wiene; murnau and Lang)
Music (They made lots of videos to the band Tool)
Mythology (Gilgamesh)
Everything's linked, one must find its sources.

I love this band.
They make a new kind of music that enters on our brain like a tornado, that's inside of us, ready to be released or controlled and they also make the links and bridges to; animation and literature.

Love this song and video; the words appear and disappear, dreams, reality, freedom.
Everything's here.
Patti whispers; sighs, shouts.
Telling us that in spite of all; life's simple.

The lyric says it all
Depeche Mode - Insight
Life at its best with a huge spirituality.
Depeche Mode - Walking In My Shoes
Everybody must walk on other people's shoes from time to time.
Depeche Mode - In Your Room
Inner peace; inner love. The private sometimes must be public, sothat an idea appears.
Depeche Mode made the bridge with Corbjin on photography and with theater (on their tours) and they gained more appeal by linking all this.
