Your New Favorite Song.
Music for an Imaginary Wes Anderson Film, Track #4.
Just got back from a night out with some friends -- a very good Cuban restaurant in Palo Alto was the highlight of the evening (apparently Bill Clinton's favorite, when he's in Silicon Valley). But alas, we ended up at the lamest-ass club in the world, Fanny and Alexander -- this was mistakenly called "Frederick and Alexander" by these two women smoking in front of Gordon Biersch who recommended it, which gave my gay friend some false optimism. The lesson: never trust the recommendation of a couple of drunken temps, who couldn't even recognize a Bergman film if it smacked them in the face, ever again.
Anyhow, this post has really no relation to the music, except that 1) Francoise Hardy's "Comment Te Dire Adieu" is cool, even if it's French; 2) it'll probably fit in a Wes Anderson film, in some, um, gently ironic scene.
All right, I gotta crash.
Hear it (3.33 mb, .m4a)
