Last April, I enthused about Blue Moon Safari, Vegyn's complete overhaul of AIR's seminal 1998 album.
The past week has seen the release of director Joshua Gordon's companion film, "An intimate road-trip across England", creating a visual narrative for all ten songs on the reimagined album.
I haven't watched the film (available as individual videos) in its entirety, but I was immediately drawn to Kelly Watch The Stars, which is great fun.
I posted the original video, created by Mike Mills, in March 2025 so this seems a long enough gap to do it again as it's a stunning piece of work.
On 5th May 2007, French broadcaster Canal + transmitted AIR performing a private concert in La Plaine Saint Denis, including a lush version of Kelly Watch The Stars.
Going back to 1st May 1998, BBC2 screened AIR's debut on Later...With Jools Holland (on British TV, in fact), performing a punked up version of Kelly Watch The Stars with help from fellow Frenchmen Phoenix.
Definitely filmed on Rodborough Common too..
