Somehow I can’t believe Karen Carpenter ever thought of ‘Close to You’
being performed quite like this.
IMHO, it’s fascinating, actually.
It’s the tune on acid and percs.
Coolbeaners.
A video clip from the movie MirrorMask.
A re-post from the past.
Yeah, I’m cheating but I’m trying.
Thought some people might get a kick out of it.
If you’ve already commented, no worries.
“…Sprinkled starlight in your eyes of crude.” LOL This was eerily interesting!
Creepy, yet totally cool.
Or psychotropic drugs.
Trippy.
I love the imagery and ideas throughout that film, though I think the acting and dialogue in the real world occasionally seems really flat and wooden. It lets it down a little.
Though it is set in Brighton, which means I recognise the sea front. Woo.
(I have yet to see the robot Carpenter Dressmakers though…that would be weird)
Definitely watch it…the visuals are astounding…a whole glorious and unusual fantasy world. Wonderful.
Michael, check this link out….only 4 years old, and that kid can play. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQPEsa5e7K0

That was a little weird- reminded me of the whole “Edward Scissorhands” thing. Creepy eyes.
Hm, it’s Saturday morning and yet that song made me just want to go back to bed and sleep. It’s so soft, couldn’t help but thinking of a lullaby performance.
Guess I am also going to the movie store to check this out.
Quite possibly the weirdest video I have ever seen, in my life. But She does look better at the end rather than at the beginning. Quite strange overall.

I once saw a short film in class, it was the story of the Carpenters and they were portrayed by barbie dolls, this was almost as weird as that. Too funny.

I actually liked this! although it did kind of sound like some ads I’ve seen on the telly also using this song…..
Kelly
That was weird. I was a little afraid for her that they were going to do something devious. Maybe they did, I donno. Worth watching?
Maybe this is what Salvadore Dali’s dreams looked like.
jesus krispies, but that was weird!
being a diehard karen carpenter fan, ’twas a little hard to swallow, but did have its appeal…in a tim burton-esque way.
Karen Carpenter might have lived longer if she spent more time with Jack in the Box.
Should not be watching that when I’m tired. LOL Interesting by really strange.
That was wonderful- thanks for reposting- now I know that the confused sides of my soul fit together- a long ago Carpenters fan with a later decade of experimentation. Yay!
Freaky transformation!
Cool though, thanks for sharing!
Karen would actually say WTF , if she was still around!
I am now seriously wondering what kinda freaky stuff you are into.
Although the song totally rocks in a morbid, decaying kind of way.
