Same But Different

Mina - Sacumdì Sacumdà - 1968



Portishead - All Mine - 1997



I love them both, and yet find them disquieting for reasons I can't quite explain...

They're both fabulous, although the Portishead is really going for the freaky uncanny valley feeling.

I agree, there's an unsettling quality to the Portishead video that reminds me of early b&w episodes of Doctor Who that I love. The Italian television variety show however is OTT awesome and has set me off looking for similar stuff on Youtube, of which there appears to be quite a bit.
