Cover art for Melody lyrics by Blonde Redhead

I love all their songs - but "Melody" is my favorite. Here the autobiography (the accident at the face of poor singer Makino) and the surreal are beautifully intertwined. Check also the videoclip: it's a sophisticate little jewel which visually resembles old Scopitone movies and it's packed full of metaphors on the themes of appearance and identity. Probably my favorite musical video ever.
