Perry Ferrell takes a lot of acid.

Beat this for your first ChiDem music video, Axl: a bunch of acid-tripping musicians wearing Prince-style flamboyant clothing singing on a floating planet in outer space while guys with dog heads jump around in slow motion with sparkles of purple-ness floating through the air.

BRILLIANT!

And I'm only being half sarcastic.

It's a bit eccentric and flamboyant but man, what a catchy song and visionary video!

EDIT: Before anyone like Funeral decides to call him gay, just keep in mind he's banging the blonde chick in that video every night. She's his Yoko, but at least she's hotter than Yoko was.

Agreed.

Perry Farrell has one of the most unique voices in rock, and amazing charisma onstage.

Loved him in his Jane's Addiction days.

And Satellite is pretty cool. Have only listened to it a few times now - but I like "Wish Upon A Dog Star," "Kinky" and "Insanity Rains" the best.

Always unique and inventive with his music. Love his style and the way he moves when performing.

Did you ever see his movie "the Gift?" It's pretty "out there" - like he is - but also very cool.

One of my fellow forum members got me into Perry Farrell's music - and sent me the film. (*Thanks "B" ... ;) )

Does he say "Hung Like a Giant" at one point?

Yes!

I thought so, but after much searching to no avail I FINALLY found a site with lyrics to the song, and it says "I'm like a giant" (not "hung like a giant"), but I don't know how accurate these are:

I'm a comin' in on lust and resurgance

With all my love I overflow the river Nile

Rolling on for thousands of miles

We can celebrate your inner horizon

We can activate our Christ teach, too

Oh we'll have our fun

I am heaven in the spirit of the sun

I'll meet you when the day breaks through

It's time to shine and make

All your dreams come true

You wish upon a dog star

Wish upon a dog star

I've been worshipped by the buried ancients

Who asked for love

I gave them love radiations

And even hiding the sensations

Yeah we can celebrate our inner horizon

We can activate our Christ teach, too

Oh it'll be fun!

I am heaven in the spirit of the sun (Get your groove on, new shiny shoes on)

I'll meet you when the day breaks through (Rocking me nightly, shining so brightly)

It's time to shine and make

All your dreams come true

You wish upon a dog star

Wish upon a dog star

We blink so brightly, light up the dark all night

Oh hear me out

I'm right up there with the brightest, I'm like a giant

I am heaven in the spirit of the sun (Get your groove on, new shiny shoes on)

I'll meet you when the day breaks through (Rocking me nightly, shining so brightly)

It's time to shine and make

All your dreams come true

You wish upon a dog star

Wish upon a dog star

I don't think they say "Christ teach." I think he says "activate a crisis."

And I'm pretty sure it's "inherited the spirit of the sun," not "I am in heaven in the spirit of the sun."
