nico - "your word against mine"

[stiggyh]

theres just something so timeless about nico

[rueckwaertssalto]

yes this is of a live recording from her last concert before she died. its in berlin in a planetarium. the idea was to build music around the theme of a desert, and nico chose the moon desert

[desertshore]

really?!? how strange that i used this particular footage o_0

[PerditaDolorosa]

nothing strange about this - it only shows again that nico knew how to build emotional landscapes with music that are universally understood

[desertshore]

this is true. it's all very elemental.

The only unreleased material on the Hanging Gardens CD is from her final live show in 1988 - the entire show is on a CD titled Fata Morgana, which is also the correct title of this song.

In The End/Songs They Never Play on the Radio, James Young says Hanging Gardens was just a ploy to re-sell these live songs as previously unreleased studio material.

some kickass record store (remember those?) wayyy back in the '90s. i snatched up both a cassette and CD. it's a posthumous release. i think i've seen it on amazon recently. it's off "Hanging Gardens."
