vid rec 'I am/lamb' by lim

'I am/lamb' vid by [livejournal.com profile] lim, sga vid to the Mercy Seat by Johnny Cash. Vid can be dl'd from here

I rec this for people who like any of the below:
1) sga
2) johnny cash
3) Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
4) John Sheppard
5) Awesome vids

Lucky for me I really like all 5!

This is one of those vids where I *know* I'm not getting everything it's telling me, but I don't mind that it makes me feel dumb. Here's a starting point for anyone who feels the same way I do: from the wikipedia entry for 'Mercy Seat' -

Nick Cave wrote the song The Mercy Seat for his 1988 Tender Prey album; his 'signature tune', it has been performed at nearly every concert since 1988. The song tells the story of a condemned man facing death on the electric chair seeking redemption in the afterlife.

Now go watch the vid.
