There’s something I find bit (erm) unloveable about Kanye — I think it’s ever since I saw him live and there was a cringe-to-death drawn out theatrical rant praising god and jesus and stuff.

Gene Pitney — Town Without Pity (swoon!)

Pink project’s Disco Project is A STRANGE AFFAIR INDEED! Love how the children clearly don’t speak English during the lip-sync. Also find their album cover art a strange and beautiful thing! Enjoy!
