i think i love murray head because he seems to just be so enthusiastic about any project he does. “hey we’re gonna put you in an erotic film where you have tons of gay sex” ok cool. “hey we’re making a bible rock opera do you want in” sure let me give one of the most emotionally devastating performances in audio history. “hey we want you to play a mentally ill chess extraordinaire but you’re gonna have to do an american accent” ok how does this sound: massahwge pahlaws
self care tip: dance through your room like an idiot to the soundtrack of jesus christ superstar while singing and pretending to be every single character all at once
every day i am astounded by the duality of murray head. you're telling me this guy, who delivered the absolutely gut-wrenching reprise of i don't know how to love him (alongside all of the other emotional songs from jcs), is also the guy who sang one night in bangkok? incredible
Lyrics don't matter if the song is cool. "One Night in Bangkok" is a guy rapping about how he can't do sex because he likes chess too much, and everyone loves that song.
