Without You - Junip
Where I saw him was a very small, intimate setting as well. That type of atmosphere makes it even better.
>> ^kir_mokum:
i've been able to see him (in a church with amazing acoustics), him opening for and then playing with zero 7, and junip which was at a very small movie theatre and was akin to being high on some fantastic warm drugs. everything he does is gold.>> ^evil_disco_man:
>> ^kir_mokum:
these guys are fucking amazing live.
Got to see Jose Gonzalez live, and agree - he's one of those artist/singers that sounds even better live.

He's quite music oriented like you. I've told him where to go when he visits here next time
In reply to this comment by oritteropo:
You'd be quite correct then, I don't mind at all. I didn't think a whole lot of the video, but the song makes up for it.
I actually thought I'd visited edm's pqueue, but when I checked there are all these cool vids that I have never seen : I've voted up some of his sifted ones, so I must've checked out his queue instead of his pqueue, or just got confused.

Seeing as your highest voted vid is Jose Gonzalez, I thought it likely that you wouldn't mind helping this through :

José González - Heartbeats (The Knife cover)
Nope, not a dupe. The other one is the aired spot, one minute long (and low quality to boot). This one has the whole song and additional footage. For me this is more a music video for José González than a commercial.

You might like http://videosift.com/video/Melpo-Mene-Holes too then. Actually there are a few really nice acoustic guitar performances lurking in my pqueue.
In reply to this comment by Kesavaram:
The session is acoustic, the guitar is classic..
Very nice music

Thanks I've been scratching my head as to why the brilliant Jose Gonzalez didn't get much attention in the first place, so I'm doubly pleased that people are enjoying this one now.

The Knife - Heartbeats
http://pitchfork.com/features/interviews/6387-the-knife/
Pitchfork: Last question: tell me about the decision to let Jose Gonzalez's cover of "Heartbeats" be the soundtrack to that Sony Bravia ad.
KD: We've never sold any of our own performed tracks to any commercials, so it was very hard for us. It doesn't really feel that good, but the question came when we were in the middle of Silent Shout, and we didn't have any money or anything, so it made it possible to continue working on the album, the videos and the live show. It made it possible to do quite a lot, but at the same time, it's dirty money.
>> ^Farhad2000:
I wonder how Knife feels about their song being used for such a huge advertising campaign given that they are so anti-music industry and all...
2 Live Crew - Fuck Martinez
From Wikipedia:
As Nasty As They Wanna Be and "Me So Horny" controversy
The group released their album As Nasty As They Wanna Be in 1989, which also became the group's most successful album, largely because of the single "Me So Horny", which was popular in spite of little radio rotation, thanks, in part, to prevalent play on MTV. The song was based on a quote from a Vietnamese prostitute in Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket and took a sample from Mass Production's Firecracker. This album was also produced by Mr. Mixx.
The American Family Association did not think the presence of a "Parental Advisory" sticker was enough to adequately warn listeners of what was inside the case. Jack Thompson, a lawyer affiliated with the AFA, met with Florida Governor Bob Martinez and convinced him to look into the album to see if it met the legal classification of obscene. In 1990 action was taken at the local level and Nick Navarro, Broward County sheriff received a ruling from judge Mel Grossman that probable cause for obscenity violations existed.[2]
Navarro warned record store owners that selling the album may be prosecutable. 2 Live Crew then filed a suit against Navarro. That June, Judge Jose Gonzalez ruled against the album, declaring it obscene and illegal to sell. Charles Freeman, a local retailer, was arrested two days later, after selling a copy to an undercover police officer. This was followed by the arrest of three members of 2 Live Crew after they performed some material from the album at a live performance held at the Futura Night Club in Hollywood Florida. They were acquitted soon after. In 1992, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit overturned the obscenity ruling from Jose Gonzales, and the Supreme Court of the United States refused to hear Broward County's appeal. A notable feature of the case was the distinguished literary critic and now Harvard University professor, Henry Louis Gates, Jr. as an expert witness on behalf of the defendants. He argued that the material that the county alleged was profane, actually had important roots in African-American vernacular, games, and literary traditions and should be protected.
As a result of the controversy, As Nasty As They Wanna Be sold over two million copies. It peaked at #29 on The Billboard 200 and #3 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. A few other retailers were later arrested for selling it as well. Later hard rock band Van Halen sued over an uncleared sample of their song "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love" in the 2 Live Crew Song "The Fuck Shop". The publicity then continued when George Lucas, owner of the Star Wars universe, successfully sued Campbell for appropriating the name "Skywalker" for his record label, Luke Skywalker Records. Campbell changed his stage name to Luke (and changed the record label's name to Luke Records) and the group released an extremely political follow up album, Banned in the USA after obtaining permission to use an interpolation of Bruce Springsteen's Born in the U.S.A. 2 Live Crew paraphernalia with the Luke Skywalker or Skywalker logos are usually sought after as collector's items.
