Rediscovering this Gem from Antony Hegarty and Boy George: You Are My Sister

This is one of my favorite songs from Antony and the Johnson's I Am A Bird Now album and it's impossible not to be moved by the performance of both Antony and Boy George. It's interesting how Antony looked up to Boy George growing up, since the latter pushed the envelope on men dressing up feminine - and it did help that the Culture Club also produced really good pop music! This song should stay on my Ipod list permanently!

So This Is the Song That Started It All for Antony Hegarty

I am reading an article now that credited Lou Reed as the one who helped Antony Hegarty clinch that record deal which resulted in an album which is now a personal classic for me, I Am A Bird Now. This is actually the song that made Lou Reed stand up and notice - I Fell In Love With A Dead Boy.
