Don't Hold Eurovision Against Him

As the uberkoolisch nerds of Brooklyn flee what is left of the burning embers of electroclash and latch onto other musical forms that can be considered authentic, hip and cool, they do what they do best - drive up the cost of living for the rest of us. Thank goodness the Kharkov winters are so cold that truck hats and ironic tshirts would make our city inhospitable to these musical locusts.



You can't find Plastic Bertrand's "Stop Ou Encore" 1982 original record for less than $100 anymore. A shame as it's one of Plastic Bertrand's best moments. Did you know he was born of a French father and Ukrainian mother? I remember the Eurovision contest he was on. Music, not so good. I hear "Stop Ou Encore" was repressed on a bootleg label, so you may be lucky to find it for less.

Mitzvah #3:
Plastic Bertrand - Stop Ou Encore"
