I Am Listening To This Song Right Now
This is off the concept album Here Lies Love by David Byrne and Fatboy Slim. Here's the description given on iTunes:
"Here Lies Love is an unlikely concept album based on the lives of the former First Lady of the Philippines Imelda Marcos and her nanny Estrella Cumpas and their divergent fates. Marcos' fascination with the clubs and discos of the 1970s and early 1980s gives Byrne and collaborator Fatboy Slim free rein to create their own dance floor numbers. Together, they employ a wide range of female vocalists to tell their story and frame the sound for a fantastic discotheque."
Imelda Marcos is famous (or infamous) for her extravagant lifestyle that reflected the nature of her husband's political rule, and her collection of 2700 pairs of shoes. (Yeah. I had to look up who she was on Wikipedia).
The album features Florence Welch, Cyndi Lauper, Natalie Merchant and, my personal favorite, Ms. Tori.
