Lady Gaga reinvents a ‘70s classic, ETHAN sizzles, Chris Houseman serves “Blueneck” Pride
Joker: Folie à Deux, out this weekend, may not be the movie itself, but the music that accompanies it. While Gay Twitter™ buzzes with Gotham-like headlines from “critics,” it’s the film’s official soundtrack that manages to break through the noise. Standouts, such as Gaga and Phoenix’s rendition of “(They Long to Be) Close to You,” popularized by The Carpenters in 1970, hint at a narrative through song that never fully captures the grandeur of show business we were all hoping for—much like the song itself, it echoes audiences yearning to be closer to something more.Nemo’s latest single, “Eurostar,” is pure triumph.
