BLUE LIPS

Credit to Nicolas at ELO Discovery for catching this one first.  Regina Spektor's new DVD Live in London has a great little surprise.  An instrumental mix of the Jeff Lynne-produced Blue Lips plays over the closing credits...

This is the kind of stuff that turns my crank and re-affirms everything I've always loved about this song.  So original and so well done.  This DVD has been on my shopping list, but I just finished a big move (for a new job) and haven't had the chance to settle in yet.

Anyway, the track was slowed down a bit perhaps for effect.  Except for the short edit in the beginning, the whole track is there.  Awesome.  You can get this on DVD or Blu-Ray with a concert CD.

That sudden stop near the end of Blue Lips got a bit more dramatic on this version. What an excellent recording...
