DERDE VERDE, MARK HOLLIS, TALK TALK Let Me In Their Psychedelic Moments

  

Here is what happens after an earthquake! :-) The shooting of this video was crazy, it was just after the shock wave, I was terrified, and people didn't stop calling me to know if everything was fine, my younger son was texting from Italy, and I always answer to my sons, so I had to stop filming almost every ten minutes. Shooting this video took me several hours in the making, and more the time was passing, more I wanted to hit the drums and couldn't stop. Yes, for sure, a hypnotic effect :-)

Mark Hollis THE COLOUR OF SPRING Talk Talk, Music, Lyrics, Feelings

   

I had the most difficulties to stop shooting this video, because I could have talked about this Music forever!

I spent one day and one night editing it, but it put me in such a joy, that I don't regret one second of it. For an album which seemed slightly sad to me, I think that I discovered a new level in it.

I feel honored to have the opportunity to talk about what I love the most in this world, and if at least one person understands the quality of this Music thanks to my videos, then, it was worth doing them.

This is not a sponsored video, I did it just because I wanted to. No, Music is not coming for the evil, but on contrary, from something huge and positive, and it shows in this Music. It makes us feeling good, it is the only proof I need.

People pass, the Music remains.

MARK HOLLIS Essentials, Claustrophobia & Can, Interview, Talk Talk

When I was a child, I used to draw comics by listening to some Psychedelic Music of the 70's. 

As an adult, now I am painting on Mark Hollis and Talk Talk Music, and I even make videos about it.

But the surprising thing, is that by reading Mark Hollis, I discovered this band of the 70's, named Can, that I didn't really know well. And by listening to them, I felt like sent back to my past, when I was creating on the Psychedelic sound, spirit, movement, colors, it is like a loop finally looped.

What a shock! But not really a surprise: Mark Hollis could have been my big brother. If it had been the case, I would have drawn on Can, I would have known them, already then.

The most surprising is that my son, 26 years old, is a Can fan...

Mark Hollis The AFTER THE FLOOD HYPNOTIZING Effect Talk Talk Laughing Stock

Am I the only one to be hypnotized by a song? 

But it is not any song, I suggest that you sit by listening to it, it is more safe :-)

I apologize for the wrong pronunciation of "hypnotized" on my video, I was probably so mesmerized that I didn't remember how to speak English! :-)

It is not easy to talk about things like that, because I take the risk to be considered as crazy or totally eccentric (which is actually the case, it seems, according to many people). But I thought, if at least one person has the same feeling that I have here, maybe this won't be so stupid.

There are so many things that we ignore about human nature. After all, Mark Hollis studied psychology at the University, and even if he finally worked in Music, it doesn't mean that he didn't have the time to learn how to hypnotize people with sounds... Or maybe he has this talent without even knowing it?

I am trying here to seize the imperceptible. Isn't it what Art is about? Isn't it what Paul Klee was trying to do on his paintings? I am trying to explain on images here what I can hear and see, and feel in Mark Hollis and Talk Talk Musics, but I have difficulties to find the words, because maybe the words don't even exist for that...
