So...anyone here into The Residents? Honestly, I wasn't until the last couple o
f weeks. Oh I had seen the infamous "Man's World" video from the 80's...thought
it was very strange and filed it away. But that was 35 years ago and maybe it
took me this long to actually appreciate it and the other things I've watched.
Specifically their take on the Elvis Presley song "Burning Love." The video is
up on YouTube, it's basically shadow people wearing huge cowboy hats and wearin
g asian soms. The lead singer sounds like Les Claypool. The costumes make me t
hink of Genesis in the "Lamb Lies Down On Broadway" era, but maybe on crack coca
ine. It's both hard to listen to, but you just can't turn away either. Either
way, I'm hooked.
[Your blood pressure just went up.]
