Default Someday... Corse, the Island of my Dreams

I wrote and recorded a song about wanting to go to Corsica someday, and wanted to make a video for it. Through his great generosity, Scruffy shared with me his photos and videos from his recent vacation in Corsica. I added a few stock photos and a few Alizée clips to complete the video and this is the result. I hope people find it enjoyable.

Absolutely beautiful lyrics and music. Your are a class act and such a talented musician. I am proud that you are an Alizee fan and such a positive influence at AAm and Lillytown at large. Thanks Lefty for just being you.

Great job Lefty. You really were able, with your music and creativity, to turn some average photos by me into a great video. This will be something awesome for me to have in the future to remember this trip by. Thank You!

Really inspiring! Great work guys!

Kind of reminds me of Todd Rundgren's "Change Myself"



BTW, this was done in the early 90's, all by todd rundgren himself using the Amiga Personal Computer!

What got me thinking of vacationing on Corsica wasn't Alizée, it was her fathers photographs of the island. Once you go through a few hundred of his pictures over the years you come to understand the unbelievable beauty of this island.

Examples of what I mean-> Jo's Photographs of Corsica

Plus if you have some free time Google Earth different small towns and look around using the street view.

I agree that Jo's photos have been a huge inspiration as well to me. As a matter of fact, I did a whole album's worth of instrumental music dedicated to his photos, so I haven't forgotten him.
