Nouvelle Vague - Our Lips Are Sealed
France's tres trippy export Nouvelle Vague have made a name for their tongue-in-chic and ingenious bossa nova covers of mostly 80's rock and pop classics. But their latest, 3, adds some interesting twists. Americana, folk and 60's pop styles merge and meld into a disparate, often haunting production sound on tracks like this one: a remake of the Fun Boy Three/Go-Go's classic "Our Lips Are Sealed" (with origanal FBT member Terry Hall on the duet vocals). And to top it off we get some nice Louise Brooks shots from the silent film era in the video. More on Nouvelle Vague here.
