The way I look is part of it. It sounds affected but I do see myself as a piece of living art. People do accuse me of being just decorative or an escapist. Well, I am. That’s what I do. So long as they realize that I am other things as well. I do kind of transcend the song and give it a different meaning. But satire would be too simple. There are moments in my show which are very moving as well as amusing. People should allow me to be many things, really give me room to put things in another dimension.
Wie cool ist denn bitte Klaus Nomi...New Wave Legende mit verrücktem Stimmchen und ganz großer Selbstinszenierung, seid mal fasziniert!
Achja, der Mann mit der Frischhaltefolie und der Spritzpistole ist zwar nicht Nomi sondern einer seiner dudes - trotzdem sehr schick.
You know me.
