This is probably the most random St. Vincent video I've stumbled on yet. Weird concept that actually works... Mostly because Annie Clark could sing along to paint peeling and somehow it would seem like magic.
Damn, I wish she sang Malneck, Signorelli and Parish's "Stairway to the Stars" in the bar! With that wonderful thumping Django rhythm behind her glorious voice as we hear in the intro. Reinhardt meets Clark, now THERE'S a magical mashup! Marry me, Annie!
Wow, just wow again and again. This gal can cover a frightening range of music with elan. Prior watched her version of Black Rainbow with Andrew Bird. She is a rare creature indeed and in a very good way.
kind of thought her first album had a jazz slant to it, now we know. And a cover of Ella Fitzgerald stairway to the stars, one of the loveliest songs ever.
