CHOON OF THE DAY: "TEARS FROM HEAVEN" - Desire

Desire, one of the most cherished bands from the ultra-cool Italians Do It Better, has just released this gorgeous vintage video for "Tears from Heaven". In a similar fashion to their widely beloved "Under Your Spell" from the soundtrack to Nicolas Winding Refn's "Drive", this new song also offers the unmistakenable production by the enormously talented Johnny Jewel (Glass Candy and The Chromatics), the immediately enchanting melody and the mesmerising mish-mash of analog synths and chill-wave atmosphere. Oh and that little bridge en français in the middle oooh la la... Judging by the excellence of both "Tears From Heaven" and the exquisite "Looking For Love" by The Chromatics we shall soon be treated to one of the best compilations in months if not years. Both tracks will be included on the upcoming "After Dark 2" alongside new tunes by Glass Candy, Farah, Mirage and Appaloosa.
