kick

i love both beck and inxs-kick is one of those near perfect albums every track all the way through. and this is a pretty cool interpretation.i especially love the version of "never tear us apart" which the song has always been in this weird limbo between sexy where this would be on my list of songs if i ever were a stripper and slightly heartbreaking like it should be in a movie during a breakup where someone is walking in the rain. it always feels slightly romantic at the same time and makes me want to slowdance to it nonetheless. i'd like to start a project like this in the new year.(hell,in actuality I. JUST. WANT. TO. PLAY.)i just have to find people who aren't flaky and want to just have fun playing music doing something like this and challenging ourselves with interpretations.
there are "artists" i can't stand and songs i hate but sometimes there is actual great songwriting past the bullshit pop stars and production.i don't feel that way about inxs by a long run but i have a slight obsession with covers and re-interpretations of pop songs.

it's like turning something that was marketed as boxed velveeta into a fine sharp aged cheddar worthy of martha stewart or something.


disclosure-i'm slightly stoned as i type this but i'm pretty sure i'm still expressing what i mean clearly...maybe
