Goodnight

On the Cover of a Magazine



I love this cover for the french magazine PHOTO by Patrick Demarchelier. And I also really like all these test shots. The picture ended up on the Justify My Love cd, which my mother in law described as "how cute, she looks like a little farm girl!".

Jay Brannan performed in Amsterdam earlier this month and I missed it! I really wanted to see him perform live one day, but I guess I just didn't see the date in time. He was even singing a song in dutch. A well known song from a project which has been going on since the early 80's called "Kinderen voor Kinderen" (children for children) about having two dads, which goes something like this:

Wij wonen in een rijtjeshuis
We hebben mooie spullen thuis
We leven heel normaal daar met z'n drietjes bijelkaar
Bas die werkt bij de krant
En Diederik is laborant
Ik ben door hen geadopteerd als baby van een jaar

Nog altijd ben ik enig kind
Maar niet dat ik dat erg vind
Zo krijg ik alle aandacht, alle liefde van die twee
Bas brengt mij altijd naar school
Met Diederik speel ik viool
En met z'n drietjes kijken we de soaps op de TV

Ik heb twee vaders
Twee echte vaders
Soms stoer en ook wel streng
Maar we hebben het heel fijn
Ik heb twee vaders
Twee echte vaders
Die als het moet ook allebei
Mijn moeder kunnen zijn

Wanneer ik naar mijn bed toe ga
Kijkt Diederik mijn huiswerk na
En Bas doet de vaat of hij strijkt de schone was
En als ik ziek of koortsig ben
Dan is er niemand die ik ken
Die zo lief voor mij zal zijn als Diederik of Bas

Hij heeft twee vaders
Twee echte vaders
Soms stoer en ook wel streng
Maar we hebben het heel fijn
Hij heeft twee vaders
Twee echte vaders
Die als het moet ook allebei
Mijn moeder kunnen zijn

Soms wordt ik wel gepest op school
Natuurlijk is dat naar
Jouw ouders zijn homo!
Dat vinden ze maar raar
Dan haal ik maar mijn schouders op
Nou en! Ik ben hun zoon!
't Is niet zoals bij anderen
Maar voor mij is 't heel gewoon

Next time he'll visit Europe again I really need a personal invitation, written by hand, dropped in my mailbox here in Arnhem.

Setting Trends as a Trendsetter



I am such a trendsetter! Growing my beard last year for my skitrip resulted in this latest New York fashion! A great woolen cap with attachable moustache is for sale here. My birthday wishlist is getting bigger and bigger!

Lickable?



Lickable? Yes, the Celebration 2DVD is quite lickable. But a censored version of Justify my Love? In 2009? That's insane. It's just a pair of tits! Besides that stupid little black square the rest of the DVD is very enjoyable. Only a few videos missing, but hey, most of them live performances. The ones really missing on this collection are Oh Father, Bad Girl, Nothing Really Matters and American Life.

Goodnight

Trip the Station #1



Okay! New game! Besides naming tunes and telling where the hell Willem is, you will now have to guess what I am watching. Part of the credits go to Mac, from Yummy of the Day who has a similar game at his blog. But instead of guessing movies you'll be guessing tv-shows here. Let's start the easiest way with this first entry!

Water, baby!



Here's one of the latest addition to the FantasticMag website.
