Four things I love: Kate Bush, covers of Kate Bush, covers of Kate Bush by singers with alternative lifestyle haircuts, cover of Kate Bush by singers with alternative lifestyle haircuts in videos with ladies kissing. So with that, I give you Polish singer Pati Sokol singing “This Woman’s Work” by Kate Bush. I know very little about her because a) I do not speak Polish and b) her website is pretty sparse. But I do know that she is pretty, sings pretty and is kissing a pretty lady. And that is enough for me to have a pretty happy Wednesday.
So lovely-her voice sounds a little like Birdy.
ReplyDeleteHere's a little info about the girl: she took part in Poland's Got Talent and was rejected during the first casting.
ReplyDeleteShe's currently dating the leader of Polish black metal band Behemoth - Nergal.
And from what I saw on Got Talent, she's pretty crazy (and in this case I can't decide if it's positive way or not).
we should add that Nergal is a definitly a man, and her video partner is tv and movie Polish actress Weronika Rosati:)
ReplyDeleteKate Bush has this conceptual genius about her that is other- worldly in the context of present day talent.
ReplyDeleteWhat I like about Pati Sokol is her tats. They seem to conform/compliment her body rather than the other way around. Most tats I've seen hang out like a t-shirt on most bodies, which I find uncomfortable.
Now that's a great video and song (thanks again to Kate Bush). Really touched me. :(
so this is a bit Tatu-doing-Kate Bush?
ReplyDeleteAnd in totally unrelated news Lip Service is finally back this Friday 20th April 2012!

OH MY GOD!!!
ReplyDeleteEven if you'd spoken Polish, you wouldn't have known much more about her.
ReplyDeleteI'm conflicted when it comes to this one. Knowing there is no out Polish female singers, it bothers me a bit: it seems a little like a stunt (especially with Nergal story). But the cover is good and together with a video creates a really intimate and touching piece.
I guess, for now, I can just enjoy the song, hoping she won't go full Sinéad O'Connor. ;]
And Weronika Rosati was naked in HBO series Luck:D (with Dustin Hoffman). Sokol was on X factor not got talent
ReplyDeleteThere's another definitely worth-watching clip by Polish indie band Indigo Tree. Video and music beautifully melt together and tell the story of two teenage girls in love http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfMjUC11roI
ReplyDeleteDorothy, I've been a K8fan for 30+ years. You do know she has a new cd out (50 Words For Snow.) When are we going to get a Kate Bush weekend crush ;-)
