Klaus Nomi - Mon Coeur (Moog Cookbook Mix) (TV Party, US TV) (1979 - 2005)
ϟ "Mon Coeur" a.k.a. "Samson and Delilah (Aria)" is a cover of the classic mezzo-soprano aria from Camille Saint-Saëns's opera "Samson and Delilah".
ϟ Klaus would often end his concerts with a countertenor rendition of this haunting piece. It is sung by Delilah, in act 2, as she attempts to seduce Samson into revealing the secret of his strength.
ϟ This liturgical mix appears on "The Nomi Song" DVD: a great documentary about "the first performance artist" whose music blended disco, camp, classical music and sci-fi.
