new Mazzy Star...

...well new for me anyway!  i'm only about a year behind, which is pretty good for me lately haha!  this single came out late 2011 i beleive, with a subsequent new album apparently to be released in late 2012.... ah Hope, you take me back to those early 90's places when anything seemed possible.... it's the kind of music that just demands you turn the lights off, throw a sheer scarf over a lamp and put some candles on....lay on the floor on cushions with summer night breezes wafting in through open windows and gauzey curtains.... ahh  my night just got a little mellower... ;-)

 

 

Miss Clara, the paper artist from Bordeux

I've decided I love Miss Clara....

Looking like combination between a young Anais Nin and Virginia Woolf all mixed together with a kind of french bohemian otherworldy charm..... it feels as though her magical creative life takes place in some kind of dishevelled, natural-history-museum-esque diorama from another era..... whats not to love here? 

This video makes me all kinds of happy!  I can't understand it, but certain words come through ...'magique', 'realite', 'artiste'... add a dash of Danny Elfman music and thats' all I need to transport me to another place :-)

What I did in the interim...

Found myself in empty spaces...

And then, felt joy at discovering new places...

 All the while, magic was afoot helping things along...

Spring happened! 

And so the wheel keeps turning...
