I have been listening to Beck since my adolescent days where I would jump on my bed blasting Mellow Gold. Beck is the type of artist that moves your insides even if you’re not in the mood. He understands sound and irony, he’s basically a badass. No wonder why he and singer-actress Charlotte Gainsbourg decided to collaborate. If you haven’t heard of Charlotte Gainsbourg she was Stephanie in Science of Sleep or maybe you might know her from her father the late singer from France, Serge Gainsbourg. They did a duet together called Lemon Incest, when she was only 13. She even came out with an album two years later called Charlotte for Ever.
The single Heaven Can Wait won’t be released until Jan 11 but the video as you can see captures a kind of magical yet satire time stamp that lets you know there are choices in life.
The single will be on the upcoming album RFM that will be released on Jan 25, 2010.
Also, for all you Beck fans that didn’t know about his new project called Record Club check it out here. It’s where him and other musicians record cover versions of entire albums in one day. So far he’s collaborated with MGMT, Andrew Stockdale from Wolfmother, Feist, Jamie Lidell, and many more.
