BRIAN MOLKO ON MEDS AND ALISON MOSSHART

๐‘ซ๐’†๐’‚๐’“ ๐’”๐’๐’–๐’๐’Ž๐’‚๐’•๐’†๐’”!
In my today’s post, I’d like to address to one of the recent conversations in the comments here on the page about the song ๐Œ๐„๐ƒ๐’ and particularly, about having ๐‘จ๐’๐’Š๐’”๐’๐’ ๐‘ด๐’๐’”๐’”๐’‰๐’‚๐’“๐’• involved into the recording process.
An interview where Brian told the story is originally in French, so probably not all of you have read it. I decided to remind you this interesting and passionate quote๐Ÿ”ฅ

๐Ÿ“ข๐๐ซ๐ข๐š๐ง: No, it's not by accident. I wanted to have female vocals on "Meds". And I thought of Alison immediately. Working with her is very pleasant, and very wild too. We met a few years ago in London, she really wowed me. Since then, I have been following her career, her rise with The Kills. When I asked her to come and participate in working on a song for the album, she agreed right away. In the studio, it's a bomb: Alison is Viagra in its purest form (smile). She has a very sexy way of singing… She is irresistible.

Of course, now it’s time to watch some brilliant versions of ๐Œ๐„๐ƒ๐’. Well, it’s a pity that we never saw Alison performing live with Placebo but no doubts, the guys themselves can make the song sound absolutely exciting – always! Do you agree?

I intentionally picked up some performances from the same year, 2006, yet all of them are different – what to say about the ones from the years after!
