Tribute

Stjernenat


A beautiful mixture of the paintings of Steen Karlsen and the (Danish) music of Johnny Madsen (a painter himself).

Anywhere I Lay My Head


Scenes from the movie News from Home to the tunes of Tom Waits Anywhere I Lay My Head (recently interpreted by Scarlett Johansson)

The Partisan


A Leonard Cohen in his 70s performing his tribute for the partisan (more). You can also listen to the original by Anna Marly.

Djävulen får sig ett gott skratt


Eldkvarn has made a wonderful cover of one of my favourite Cornelis Wreeswijk songs; Somliga Går Med Trasiga Skor (translation, listen to original). This performance is part of a campaign for the Swedish railways (SJ).

Ibrahim Ferrer Tribute


Ibrahim Ferrer was a Cuban musician who became world famous through the Buena Vista Social Club album. My favourite Ibrahim song is called Qué Bueno Baila Usted (click here for quality audio).

Alexander Supertramp


Adam has made a beatiful summary of the movie Into the Wild depicting the journey and death of Alexander Supertramp aka Christopher McCandless. The song is Jerry Hannan - Society.
