Free Music Notes for Klaus Nomi - The Essential
Free Music Review: A good introduction to Klaus Nomi
Hit: 5 Stars
Klaus Nomi was a rare and special being. He made the world a little less drab.
This CD is a strange and happy mix of songs from all sides of Nomi. This is important in understanding Nomi - a strange and happy artist. Nomi was equally comfortable in many styles and equally proficient at all of them. He was at home in pop, opera, and new wave.
He shows off his classical side in a Saint-Saens aria, Der Nussbaum, and the Cold Song, among others. He surprises with a
cover of 'Can't Help Falling in Love' that wisely resisted the temptation to go soprano.
Any collection of Nomi is incomplete without the 'Nomi Song,' 'Total Eclipse,' and 'After the Fall,' and these are here, along with the Rush-Limbaugh-Favorite 'You Don't Own Me.'
This does not have any of the 'hard-to-find' tracks, but it's an excellent introduction to Klaus Nomi.
Incidental note - liner notes are in french.
Hopefully, with the movie out, people will begin to look at Nomi again, and we may even see a revival of interest in his music.
It may be cliche, but it's true: Nomi was an artist who lived before his time.
