Midnight coming on a Monday night
I’d forgotten what it meant to have a life-changing moment.
Yesterday I got to see Jeffrey Lewis live in a tiny bar in Berlin.
I’d always thought he had great lyrics and listened to what people might call the hits (
Williamsburg Will Oldham Horror, Chelsea Hotel Oral Sex Song) and his Crass cover album.
He’s a smart and very witty, self-deprecating genius.
Concert was meant to be at Festsaal Kreuzberg, but the place burned down less than a week ago. So I got to see him at Monarch. Bought the ticket at the door (12 euros!) and was 3 meters away from him during the whole show.
Cozy venue. People smoking indoors (a friend told me later it was hard for her to believe Lebanese were actually smoking on the sidewalk while Berliners were all inside). Fogged up windows, U-Bahn passing on the bridge… You get the picture.
No lyrics today: listen to the songs!
I won’t post any of his words so you get to discover them slowly as he sings them. Just like I did.
I recognized 3 songs during the whole set
This Crass cover
This classic. Check out the Michel Gondry hand-picked student-made video
And Midnight was actually coming on a Monday night when someone in the crowd shouted out for this one
All the others were new to me:
Water Leaking, Water Moving
When You’re By Yourself
To Be Ojectified
Seattle
Time Trades
There were also a couple of low-budget films (a biography of Alan Moore and an After Dark sexy comic) and a few new tracks that have yet to be released.
It was a brilliant performance. I love this guy.
And yes, the Daniel Johnston comparisons you’re trying to voice are not totally unfounded.
and yes they’ve already played together
True
Charlotte Rampling by Juergen Teller
And the music don’t feel like it did when I felt it with you
Nothing that I do or feel ever feels like I felt it with you
XX – Teardrops
Womack & Womack – Teardrops
Whenever I hear goodbyes, remind me baby of you
I break down and cry, next time I’ll be true, yeah
Fever for lost romance remind me baby of you
I took a crazy chance
Next time I’ll be true, I’ll be true, I’ll be true
Footsteps on the dance floor remind me baby of you
Teardrops in my eyes, next time I’ll be true, yeah
Whispers in the powder room
“She cries on every tune, every tune, every tune”
When I’m dancin’ ’round, remind me baby of you
I really let you down, next time I’ll be true, yeah
I took a crazy chance
“She cries on every tune, every tune, every tune”
Footsteps on the dance floor remind me baby of you
Teardrops in my eyes, next time I’ll be true, yeah
Whispers in the powder room
“She cries on every tune, every tune, every tune”
And the music don’t feel like it did when I felt it with you
Nothing that I do or feel ever feels like I felt it with you
Hurting deep inside, she cries on every tune
I break down and cry
“She cries on every tune, every tune, every tune”
Footsteps on the dance floor remind me baby of you
Teardrops in my eyes, next time I’ll be true, yeah
Whispers in the powder room
“She cries on every tune, every tune, every tune”
Headless Heroes – True Love Will Find You In The End
Daniel Johnston – True Love Will Find You In The End
True love will find you in the end
You’ll find out just who was your friend
Don’t be sad, I know you will,
But don’t give up until
True love finds you in the end.
This is a promise with a catch
Only if you’re looking will it find you
‘Cause true love is searching too
But how can it recognize you
Unless you step out into the light?
But don’t give up until
True love finds you in the end.
Hello. So, I guess you got the idea we’re gonna be True Blue but it isn’t Madonna‘s or even a Paperbag cover. Enno, seriously “I’m so excited ’cause you’re my best friend”?!
I walk along these streets until I Have you in my arms
Now that you’re gone in my heart so wild and blue
And if I had the chance, I’d never let you go.
And doll if you haven’t called back, I’m begging you please
True Blue, baby
True Blue, for you,
forever and now
No matter how far the distances
I just want you to know
that? my heart will always be true
true blue
for you
true blue
(incoherent)
true blue
true blue
true blue (for you babe)
However, we will be staying True to our theme and the 80s feel with PM Dawn sampling Spandau Ballet’s biggest hit.
Reality used to be a friend of mine
I prefer quoting that to the original’s : Why do I find it hard to write the next line / Oh I want the truth to be said!
Two to go and we’re done:
I’m not living
I’m just killing time
Your tiny hands
Your crazy kitten smile
And now for some comic relief or else this would be too dramatic. Ever heard of Mondegreens?
For the longest time I heard the opening lines as I’m in love with TWO girls
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh I love you
Art
I won’t even try to explain the subtle nuances between Lebanese and English in this graffiti.
Like Hank Moody said in Californication: “Far as I’m concerned, art’s just a guy from Brooklyn.”
Elle est drole cette vidéo. M’a fait penser tout de suite aux danseurs comptant (contents?) pour rien de Gad el Maleh.
Mais bon, passons à l’art poétique; celui de Verlaine, mis sur microsillons par Ferré. Et oublions sa vie d’artiste
De la musique avant toute chose
Et pour cela, préfère l’Impair
Plus vagu’ et plus soluble dans l’air
Sans rien en lui pèse ou qui pose,
…
Et tout le reste est littérature.
Et puisque vous insistez, sans toutefois tomber dans l’exhaustivité voilà un dernier morceau par un grand bonhomme incompris:
Daniel Johnston – Story of An Artist
