Been listening to a lot of Gogol Bordello lately

[selfportrait27]

Eugene Hutz of Gogol Bordello:

"I've seen Chernobyl disaster, evacuation, USSR collapse, immigration, depression.. opportunity to rebuild our life from a scratch, war in our country, friends & relatives killed ... when things seem cataclysmic relying on ourselves n relying on each other is the key, source energy of resiliance is located within... one of the most precious gifts we have is life-long friendships and it consists of loyalty and empathy."

Oh No

Sometimes when facing common trouble

When whole town is screwed

We become actually human

Act like Prometheus would

Suddenly there is more humor

And a party tabor style

People ringing one another

“Yo man, how was your blackout”

Suddenly there is more music

Made with the buckets in the park

Girls are dancing with flashlights

I got only one guitar

And you see brothers and sisters

All engaged in sport of help

Making merry out of nothing

Like in refugee camp

Oh Yea

Oh No

It doesn't have to be so

It is possible

Anytime

Anywhere

Even without any dough

Oh Yea

Oh No

It doesn't have to be so

The forces of the creative mind

Are Unstoppable

And you think

All right

Now people have finally woke up

But as soon as trouble over

Watch them take another nap

Now nobody making merry

Only trotting

scared of boss

Everybody's making hurry

For some old forgotten cause

But one thing surely eternal

Is condition of a man

Who don't know where he is going

Who don't know where does he stand

Who's Dream Power is a bottle

Put away in dry dark place

Who's Youth Power is well buried

Under propaganda waves

Who's Dream Life in opposition

To the life he leads in day

Who's beaten down in believing

“It just kinda goes this way”

Oh Yea

Oh No

It doesn't have to be so

It is possible

Anytime

Anywhere

Even without any dough

Oh Yea

Oh No

It doesn't have to be so

The forces of the creative mind

Are Unstoppable

244 - Everything is Illuminated

In the early aughts, Jonathan Safran Foer’s Everything Is Illuminated was an inescapable book, launching the young author’s career (and more than a few skeptics). Naturally, the film adaptation came along, though with the unexpected pedigree of cherished actor Liev Schreiber making his director debut. Starring Elijah Wood as a fictionalized version of Foer traveling to Ukraine to discover family truths buried by the Holocaust, the novel and film are a reflection on the lost history of shetls in Eastern Europe. But when the film arrived on the fall festival scene, underwhelming reviews 

This episode, we talk about Elijah Wood’s post-Lord of the Rings career and the other films that have come from Foer’s writing. We also discuss the film arriving in the year of Schreiber’s Tony win, distributor Warner Independent’s successful 2005, and the National Board of Review’s 2005 picks for Special Recognition for Excellence in Filmmaking.

Topics also include emailing Natalie Portman, trailer voiceover, and the Blockbuster vs. Netflix discs era.

Episode 634: Eugene Hütz (Gogol Bordello)

There's no one quite like Gogol Bordello.

The band has cultivated a wildly joyful mix of Romani and Ukrainian music, crossed with punk, polka and any other genre that might suitable serve the chaos. 

Eugene Hütz stands in the eye of the storm, as frontman and ringleader. Growing up in Ukraine studying English language punk and folk, Hütz and family would move across the content to Poland,

Hungary, Austria and Italy as political refugees. In the early-90s, the band settled in the U.S.

By the end of the decade, Gogol Bordello began in earnest in Manhattan's Lower East Side
