António Sérgio, 16 years after
António Sérgio, one of the most innovative radio directors in the world and the best ever in Portugal, left us 16 years ago.
Unfortunately, radio is no longer the same and never will be again. And we will never have anyone like António Sérgio again.
Adrian Borland and his band The Sound were one of the many artists that only António Sérgio played in Portugal when they were still relatively unknown.
For the Portuguese public, as stated on the tribute page to António Sérgio on Facebook:
António Sérgio, um dos realizadores de rádio mais inovadores do mundo e o melhor de sempre em Portugal, deixou-nos há 16 anos.
Infelizmente, a rádio já não é a mesma que era e nunca mais será. E nunca mais teremos alguém como António Sérgio.
Adrian Borland (e a sua banda The Sound) foi um dos muitos artistas que só António Sérgio tocou em Portugal quando ainda eram pouco conhecidos.

I find you in every street
... Where your arm seeks me . I know your body so well ...
Mário Cesariny, sung by Noiserv, by Cesariny's 100th birthday.
until she comes, again
Until she comes again . With all my saving and my sins .
There's no good reason to begin . Until she comes again.
I can't be saved from my wounds . Until shoe comes.

Nouveau Western plus Bonnie and Clyde
MC Solaar (Claude Honoré M'Barali, born in Dakar) is a French rapper who sampled Serge Gainsbourg's "Bonnie and Clyde" in 1994, long before many artists covered the same song in tribute to Serge, who was rediscovered in the first decade of this century, reborning as a cult artist since then.
Later, Dean Wareham with Britta Phillips, made some amazing covers of that song, as follows.
The original, Serge Gainsbourg with Brigitte Bardot in 1968:
