i was installing the newest version of itunes when i came across an old favorite in my music library – alcazar! way back in 2001, these swedes were among the best when it came to cheesy dance music. think steps with a naughty streak – and a little less dead weight.
my favorite was “crying at the discotheque,” which was notable for it’s dramatic title and for being the only song in history to mention richard gere. i cannot ignore the fag-tastic video, which features skin tight space-age costumes and dancers with various animal heads. yes it’s very weird, but in the most awesome way imaginable! it is, naturally, the ¡viva la graham! video of the week; i’m feeling nostalgic, what can i say?
as if alcazar weren’t camp enough, they later added a fourth member, super-queen magnus carlsson (pictured, right). he’s very pretty, isn’t he? actually, that outfit is very smart.
haha, speaking of, i’ve got to go… project runway is on!
