"Astronauter" - on Yamaha HE-8
YouTube via organfairy
"Like astronauts /
just like astronauts /
we have a rendez-vous /
every night at 5 PM /
you in your Fiat Uno /
and me in my Citroën"
This Danish song by Troels Trier and Rebecca Brüel is about two people who have never met face to face. But they pass each other every night in the darkness on the highway - just like astronauts in their space ships.
I play it on the Yamaha HE-8 organ with a little help from the Roland synthesizer and Korg drum machine.
I had just bought a little camera at a jumble sale and I wanted to try out its capabilities. So I went out in the early evening and got some sunset pictures that I thought was usefull to go with this song.
And at the end I show the results of a classical photographical experiment I did many years ago: Leaving a camera with an open lens pointing upwards on a starry night."
