louise on the left (coast)

In tribute to ~ Alan Rickman, David Bowie, Prince and so many others who chose to leave in 2016. LCD Soundsystem's tune seems an appropriate choice to address the gaping hole left where their unique brilliance once shined so brightly for so long in our world. Take nothing for granted.   Life is so fragile.

Late last night I watched a funny link  of the Muppets singing a cover of LCD Soundsystem's Dance Yrself Clean .   It's an  amusing clip, to be sure, but not as truly great as some of their other work. Below is another clip of LCD Soundsystem singing Losing My Edge, which reminded me of how great they were this past fall at Hollywood Bowl last October.  And they were great.  Absolutely great. Sorry, but I simply cannot fathom that I'm going to miss their farewell concert in April in New York later this year.  The last concert, ever for this group?  - No.

This is my all time favorite song of this summer:  LCD Soundsystem's "Someone Great." Has some controversy about the meaning of it:  Don't really care.  It's my favorite song of the year.
