This song is so lush and pretty. I can listen to it a billion times and it just never gets old, it always makes me smile and feel all fuzzy. One of my very favorite memories of living in NY was getting to see Dean and Britta play at the Zipper Factory. <3!!!!!
Wonderful video. Beautiful moment in time you've captured here, thanks for sharing it with us :-) Dean is just so fucking cool. "Harvard produces good grads after all" (lipupfatty1295) funny.
I have Nightnurse and all "L' Avventura" and "Back Numbers" on my ipod, i never get tired of listenting to Dean & Britta, they just rock, their psychodelic vintage rock sound is amazing, they're bringing something unusual to 2010, cause we don't see any bands with that kind of sound, HOORRAY FOR DEAN AND BRITTA!
Oh le sigh. Dean has been one of my heroes since 5th grade. And Britta, I mean, wow. She looks like an amazing 60's French ingenue in this video. So beautiful.
However distressingly morbid his appearance, Dean Wareham is a very talented songwriter/musician.Superb, dreamy tune to listen to, despite Mr. Wareham's forlorn countenance and figure. A very distraught Nosferatu sporting a cheap wig could not best Dean Wareham's depressing image.
None in my experience is better at articulating human misery and pathos
like Dean Wareham can, his most subtle and nuanced of gestures could prompt even the most cheerful to leap off the nearest, tall structure.
Ya She Was In The Movie Satisfaction With Justine Bateman N Liam Neeson Too I Just Watched It LOL. I Have Noet Seen It In A Long Time. Her Birthday Was Yesterday Too. I Looked Up Her Name I Was Curious. Pretty Wild She Does Music In Life.
I absolutely love this song! Months ago I saw that D & B were playing with Keren Ann @ the Bowery Ballroom in NYC. Having never seen or heard anything by either performers but always seeing them highly regarded in the mag Time Out NY I decided to get tickets for the show. Then I came here looking for some of their music. Discovered "this" haunting melody and Keren"s "Not Going Anywhere" another absolutely beautiful tune. It was awesome to see them both perform these songs at that show! TY!
Britta is drop dead gorgeous and she can sing her beautiful ass off! How come she's not featured more? I wanna hear HER! do I have to watch Jem & the Holograms to hear HER sing alone? The girl has a beautiful voice!
First of all, I looked up Britta Phillips because I am a Jem fan- I had no clue she still performed! But the background music to this song bears a striking resemblance to the song in the movie "Carrie" where she is dancing with Tommy. Am I the only one who thinks this??
I liked this... but I have to hurry off a to fill the air with some Billy Joe of Green Day or Billy Coragan from the Pumpkins before my brain leaks out my ear from all that mush!
I am a music video director living in NYC. I've done some big-budget videos that you might have probably seen; but I must tell you that I am very impressed by this little piece shot with no money but capturing an intimate moment, something that many "big" directors will never achive.
I've been walking around singing this song for weeks. Not sure why cocrteau though this video was "sleek". It seems much far from that with the handheld camera work and these almost voyeuristic looks into domestic scenes. Very nice.
...Galaxie 500 were so good.Just for my benefit....am i the only person on earth who thought The Belltower (Britta Phillips' band) were absolutely fantastic??
Hey, I dug them too. My group Honey Smugglers shared a label (Ultimate) when they were based in the UK, and we had a few good gigs with them here and there. Happy days ! Jody Porter now making good with Fountains of Wayne of course...
very pretty. nicely done. It must be nice to be associated with something you can really be proud of.
