Band Wiki:
Blonde Redhead is an American rock trio comprised of Kazu Makino and twin brothers Simone and Amedeo Pace. They take their name from a song by DNA, a no wave band from New York. The band performs in multiple languages including English, Japanese, Italian, and French.
I think i'll check them out more. 23 is their 7th album.
Blonde-Redhead-Top-Ranking-one-pose-per-second was great, and I wanted to hear more.
Lyrics:
23
23 seconds, all things we love will die
23 magic, if you can change your life
Your tainted heart, my tainted love, repent now
How many times ?
As long as you live, how many times ?
The world will go around
He was a friend of mine, he was a son of god ... he was a son of a gun
23 seconds, in you I see a chance
23 magic, if you change the name of love
Your crazy heart, my crazy love, repent now
How many times ? As long as you wish
How many times ? The world will go around
How many times ? As long as you want
How many times ? The world will go around
He was a friend of mine, he was a son of a gun ... he was a son of god

kronosposeidonsays...I have to say that you have impeccable music taste, Thylan. Thanks for posting this. I noticed your tags included "mike" and "mills". Is that the same Mike Mills from R.E.M? Is he somehow involved with this group as a producer or something?
my15minutessays...was just wondering the same thing.
i know it's a common enough name, but the association would be inevitable to anyone who knows the name of more than one member of REM.
Thylansays...I have to apologize, i was part asleep when i was setting the vid details last night, and forgot to update the tags from Top-Ranking to the correct director for this vid. I'm a numpty. I plead hypnotism by the voice and that vid
my15minutessays...yeah, i was just gonna' say, what a...
numpty?
Thylansays...*requeue
siftbotsays...Re-queueing this video for one more try; last queued Sunday, January 13th, 2008 6:47am PST - requeue requested by submitter Thylan.
Linzsays...I guess it counts as an American band, but the guys are from Italy (and Montreal!) and chickie is from Japan.
I could never get into their earlier stuff, but they blew me away with this album and they were a revelation live. Upvote!!
bleedingsnowmansays...Pushing it through!
bamdrewsays...misery is a butterfly is my favorite of their albums. the tracks with Kazu on vocals are great; not so much the ones with the dude. his voice... kindof annoying, especially because her's is so cool.
this track is a bit over-produced for my taste... sound like a track from the last Ladytron cd, which I didn't like until hearing/seeing it performed live (with real instruments).
