Soviet Miguel

Continuing my Miguel rediscovery of the past few days, I love his proto-Soviet video of Ojala Ojala. It has a visual feel of a much sexier and exciting feel of the Pet Shop Boys "Go West" and a near Depeche Mode sound, en espanol, of course. Miguel takes the award for the sexiest 51-year-old in my book, but please loose the damn earrings.

Seeing something so queer, Soviet and Spanish makes one smile to think that General Franco is rolling in his grave.

I must admit. "Velvetina" is now growing on me. Slowly, but surely. I wasn't too crazy about this CD, but two years later I'm listening to it lots, especially in the last two weeks.

"Velvetina" is worth revisiting. It's also worth investing in the CD/DVD combo which has a video for virtually every song.

It can be a bit harsh or downright confusing and weird, but that's obviosuly his intent. And, yep, he is really easy on the eyes...
