Tomorrow Comes Today
I figure I like to share the things I enjoy – games (boardgames, video games, role playing games), music, movies, series, books, my work – so I might as well blog about them, and not just share content, but also share why I liked/enjoyed it. And – who knows ? – maybe the world will care, or maybe just one of you, and you, that special someone, mean the world to me.
So, without further ado, let me share some music!
Why start with La Femme? Because my friend Laurent shared his 2016 playlist, in which this particular piece appears.
La Femme is an odd number, that I cannot (not want to) classify in one genre. Sphynx has that repetitive, hypnotic melody and Naomi Greene’s voice fits perfectly; not quite whispered, but with a wispy quality to it. The lyrics speak of acid and dance and Babylon, and the video that was made for it stays true to the theme and style.
Sphynx révèle toi ! Emporte moi
et guide moi sur le chemin
qui nous emmènera au loin
à mille et une années lumière
et nous durerons dans le temps, nous serons Sphynx
Show yourself, Sphynx ! Take me away
and guide me on the path
That will take us afar,
one thousand and one light years away,
and through time we will endure, we will be Sphynx
