you need beauty

Months ago Antony, at the Antony & the Johnsons EP release, wore a furry Peter Pan hat which made him look like Errol Flynn; he plopped it on his round, luxurious hair-head right after Boy George left the stage for a smoke. That is something I forgot to mention. Boy George was compelled to smoke a cigarette after dueting. Smoking, that stuff'll kill you, but it was Boy George and he will smoke forever and live forever, like Joni Mitchell and Marlene Dietrich. Their voices cascaded together like cornsilk, both.

I am in love with this sweet video for "The Lake." Animated by Theworldofadam who, incidentally, is a Portlander now residing in Brooklyn.
