6/15 Never saw Gypse, the 1962 movie, nor the broadway musical, so listening to the music. Movie spotify, broadway spotify, playlist of all the options.
6/16 Watching Wes Anderson talk about Life Aquatic Zusu, I didn't know that the fellow created unique music for the movie, here's the album by Seu Jorge: spotify. He's singing David Bowie in Portuguese. I instantly love this album, beautiful. I looked it up and even though it's in another language, and he changed the lyrics, they are derivative of Bowe and he could be owed a portion of the royalties.
6/17 Listening to Seu Jorge, I found a playlist of Bowe covers, and I found Chris Hadfield, the astronaut, has an album of space songs. spotify. He recorded the music while at the space station. It's an interesting question whether music from outer space are subject to earth's copyright laws. I suppose since it's sold on earth, it is still subject to earth laws. It's style reminds me of John Denver, a kind of contemporary folk pop.
