Dedication Week (III): August
Posted on 8:40 am, 23rd April 2008 by Ben. | Posted in Elegantly Dressed Wednesday

And as it’s Wednesday, who better than the elegantly dressed Max Raabe singing Klonen Kann Sich Lohnen (”Cloning Could Be Worth It”).

I discovered Raabe last week, thanks to August sending me a link to this fine performance by the Bratislava Hot Serenaders. A couple more hours of browsing and I’d uncovered the witty, dry - almost serpentine - Raabe, and laughed my face off to his 30s-style covers of Britney Spears’s Oops I did it Again, and Tom Jones’s Sex Bomb.

So, August: thanks. This week’s EDW is for you.

Oh what an honour! But I ought to thank YOU for introducing me to Max.

Love his poker-face. Did you catch the sheep in the cloning video?

The Britney Spears is a riot. I only hope I don’t have that whiny nasal inflection he’s mocking. . .
