Antony & The Johnsons - EXperiments (2008?)


"I think we spend a lot of time inhibiting. We’ve learned our whole lives how to inhibit our expression. To be the most microscopically contained, socially contained expression. I think singing and all the creative expressions give form to a more expansive expression as a human being."

-Antony Hegarty

Just get it. So many amazing covers.... I can't find the release info online, so i'd imagine it's pretty rare. I don't exactly remember how I came across it, but his cover of "Perfect Day" always moves me.

"
The ballads are the best ones. Having feelings is a physical process so if I’m moved by something, I’m probably having feelings. It tends to engage me physically."

-Antony Hegarty
