Bak in the days when I was in highschool, dreaming away about the wonders of the real world and what I would want to be when I was grown up, I had a thing for Valensia. Especially his song 'Gaia' impressed me. A couple of years later I purchased his cd second hand (hey, I bought my first cd player in 1996 and used tapes and radio up to that point) and was even more impressed by the variation and musicality. I did a quick search and it seems that he's still making music and he's big in Japan after several disappointments in the Netherlands. He's still yummy ;-)
Here's the clip from Gaia:
After browsing through some of his other clips, I wanted to share this one too. It's one of my favorite songs from his album. Note the sprinkles of Michael Jackson, the eighties guitar work and the vague impression of a flamengo/belly dancer.
