Five Years


my favorite david bowie song is five years. seu jorge did a bunch of david bowie covers for 'the life aquatic with steve zissou' starring bill murray, himself, et al. below is his cover, in portuguese.

here is bowie performing the song with arcade fire- i was going to put the original up, but the sound quality i found online was shitty. this is a pretty good version, though when that amish lead singer dude starts trying to elbow his way into the vocals toward the end, it's a little awkward.

BELOW are excerpts from the Flight of the Conchords episode from season 1 where Jermaine and Murray convince Brett that he's bulimic, and Brett starts having Nocturnal Visits from David Bowie in various incarnations. VERY funny shit, i strongly advise you check out the three clips below, even if you didn't like the clips above/don't like david bowie at all.

  1. i love David Bowie, and sorta liked The Life Aquatic... but whenever Seu Jorge started singing in that movie, i wanted to vomit.
