Blogovision 2020, 05: Róisín Murphy - Róisín Machine

 

Never had a broken heart

Am I incapable of love?

Never seen me fall apart

I must be incapable of love

Never had a broken heart

Yet I'm unavailable for love

And I should try and play my part

But I'm incapable

Lyrics from Incapable by Róisín Murphy, from her album Róisín Machine

Blogovision/My top-20 albums of the year - no.03: Roisin Murphy - Hairless Toys

We were glass house girls
Full of joie de vivre and verve
Built a house of glass
Out of fragments from the blast
When it's all revealed
Must be seen to be believed
Little raincoat sister
Weren't allowed to dream
Made a new reality

Lyrics from House Of Glass by Roisin Murphy, from the album Hairless Toys

Blogovision/My top-20 albums of the year - no.8: Róisín Murphy - Mi Senti

Róisín was exhausted but happy. She had spend a few days in Miami with friends she had not seen for a long time, visiting the galleries and spaces full of art, enjoying great food and drinks. She loved the energy and feel of Art Basel Miami, much more than the actual art per se. But it was time to pack up and go. She had to return home, to a family that was waiting her for the holiday season. And then it was time to finish that album. Mi Senti, the Italian covers EP she had released this summer was hard to record but it had paid off in many ways, Now it was the new album's turn. She sipped her martini, silent and content. And happy. Bye bye dear Miami.

Second show on Poplie last Sunday and I think I am getting the hang of it. The first hour was more acoustic, second hour was more dance/electronic with the new tracks of Roisin Murphy presented at the Viktor & Rolf Spring/Summer 2010 fashion show this month being the absolute highlight. So join me every Sunday at noon for more. You can download the whole radio show from the left column of this blog.
