6 degrees of captivation ......

Having been beguiled by Ane Brun, I then watched this YouTube of her ....

and was just captivated ..... Ane ... Ane .... I love you Ane .....

But it then got me thinking about other captivating performances ....

What about Perla .....

Perla .... Perla ..... I love you ......

Although you have no idea what she is singing about [I do now.... as I looked it up some time ago and this Mexican song has quite a story to tell ] but regardless .... you cannot take your eyes off her [well I couldn't] ......

Then of course there is the queen of captivation .....

I mean dancing on the back of a moving truck... what were you thinking Bjork .....

I suppose dancing around the Empire State building is a bit less bonkers

But Karen O dances with vigour and captivates all the way round ..... 

just so damned smiley ......

Then Camille captivated me on Mars .....

What a fab way to end a song .... how can you not be captivated by that ......

And then last but not least .... I tripped up on this one and thought wow .......

In fact so wow was I captivated by Alice Phoebe Lou.....

 I am going to see her live at Oslo on Thursday night ....

and here is another wonderful bonus track of hers .......

A song that not so much captivates .......

but tip toes across your soul ......

Dancing can even be seen on the back of a ...........

Truck ......

and she never misses a beat .......

Talking of all things Picasso.....

........ at times there is something quite surreal about Bjork .....

In my time I have stood on many trucks

but I have never been as excited as Bjork is in this video, 

and not wearing a seatbelt no less

and like Picasso this is pure brilliance...

[Iceland's answer to David Byrne]
but to get the full effect

usual rules apply

full screen 

full volume

and you need to

stand up to listen [flatbed truck optional]
