If you haven't experienced Nick Drake...here is a good one.
This video is a haunting short by director Tim Pope of
Nick Drake's River Man.
Catch the background sounds & scenes.....they make it even more haunting.
This will get you, misty, and any fans of timeless folk/psych.....

Thank you James, gonna have a listen. Thank you for sharing Nick Drake.
Strange, wicked but artistic in my opinion.
It's not the song, it's the way this was shot in the movie. It has something and I can't name it. Strange, funny, buy yet powerful in a weird way.
The magic of Herman and Nina back in the day.

Your avatar's kind of 'wild woman" today, m.
I like your video....reminds me a little of a Tom Waits kind of bluesy piano bar tune with the cool video.
Check this out....one of the coolest and inventive music videos I've seen in a long time...with some great music too......

Wild woman? Cause of my hair?
It's a photo from a couple of months ago from when my hair was black. It's more brown now, but it's gonna go back to being blond when my hair has settled down a bit. I want to have my original color back.
Yes the video is special. Herman was special. Sadly he jumped of the Hilton hotel in Amsterdam a few years ago.
Sure the guy was crazy but such a sweet man and an artist in so many ways.
Yes I know that vid James.
Kostis posted it some days ago I remember and I love it. Very creative.

Ya...the wild hair. Black hair is good...keep it simple, if it's yours, own it.

No more cherry red to make the hairdresser have a heart attack?

Nope my hairdresser is very happy with me that I want to go back to blond. But it isn't that simple to go from black/brown to dirty blond again.
He says my hair needs to settle down first.
He hated when I went black, his wife too. They were mad at me. They love my hair.
But you can't say no to a customer.

blonde to black would be a shock......
But as the immortal Blind Faith sang..."DO what you like".
Time to go natural....back to nature n' all....I misread your natural color....thought it was black. I'm a bit bleary eyed.
We'll look forward to the blonde YOU, Mon. That will change how you handle those avatars....that B&W contrast.....you'll need black backdrops!

Black backdrops? I don't think I am that good at making avatars yet.
Yes I've been dark now for years. From brown to red to black and brown. Really wanna go back to my natural color again. It feels good. It's time.

I'm glad you like him, mon. He was such a talent. I'll give you another beauty here....his songs are always a mix of beauty & darkness....."Time Has Told Me"....just down our alley, right, mon?

I got mine for $40. Happy llisteniing

Is there any actor who can pull off "creepy" better than Walken?!!
All he has to do is walk into the room.

Deer Hunter.......Great movie! Intense. Best word I can think of to describe it.
And it's not ALL about deer hunting, Lauren!!

Remember the part where that the one deer convinced the other deer to let him have more bullets for his Russian Roulette game?

Deer Hunter is a great movie. I saw that when I was serving my national service,
stationed at the obscurest of all places I've been.
It was very moving, as I recall
