Video: Charlotte Gainsbourg f. Beck, “Heaven Can Wait”
In a way, the waify offspring of Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin is a perfect match for the vagabond scientologist Beck, and this video shows why: they can have lazing-around Boho slumber parties where they muse about philosophy, art and making love while cuddling; or they can meet odd new people doing extraordinary things, like holding a WWII bomb graffiti’d with the word “Nachos.” Hey man, we wanna play shirtless guitar when our parents are arguing, too. However, we have to draw the line at doing our make-up with a life-sized dino-man in the bathroom. It’s just too intimate. (via Spinner)
