ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Growing up in California, Antony felt himself to be the consummate outsider until he came face to face with the image of Boy George on the cover of the Culture Club's 1982 debut album, Kissing to Be Clever. He relocated to New York City in 1990, where he found a world more accepting of his avant-garde sensibilities and sexually ambiguous nature. He created the cabaret ensemble Blacklips and modeled himself after {#Blue Velvet}-era Isabella Rossellini and the drag queen that graced the cover of Soft Cell's 1982 single "Torch."

#25 Seller of 2005! There is a myth that great artists operate in seclusion. Hogwash.

VINYL FORMAT. On the second single from Antony & The Johnsons' I Am A Bird Now, Antony presents one of the strongest solo pieces in his staggeringly rich repertoire. The song "Hope There's Someone" is a rush of pure emotion, a true performance with every bit of hope, supplication, distress, horror, lament, agony, sorrow and accession, spanning the entire life-death experience. Two of the three songs are previously unreleased outtakes from the I Am A Bird Now sessions.
