OCTOBER 6, 1972 – During sessions at RCA Studios in New York City, David Bowie recorded “The Jean Genie,” which became the lead single from his 1973 album “Aladdin Sane.” Mixing occurred the following week at RCA Studio B in Nashville, Tennessee; the original single mix is in narrow stereo, while the stereo soundscape is wider in the album mix.It was promoted with a film clip featuring Andy Warhol associate Cyrinda Foxe (February 22, 1952 – September 7, 2002) an American actress, model and publicist, best known for her role in Andy Warhol’s film “Bad” (1977). She was later married to both David Johansen of the proto-punk band New York Dolls and Steven Tyler of the hard rock band Aerosmith, and was the mother of Mia Tyler. Released on November 24th, the track spent 13 weeks in the UK charts, peaking at #2, making it Bowie’s biggest hit to date. The line “He’s so simple minded, he can’t drive his module” would later give the band Simple Minds their name.
LYRICS:
A small Jean Genie snuck off to the city
Strung out on lasers and slash-back blazers
Ate all your razors while pulling the waiters
Talking ’bout Monroe and walking on Snow White
New York’s a go-go, and everything tastes right
Poor little Greenie, ooh-ooh
Keep her comin’
The Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks
He’s outrageous, he screams and he bawls (Jean Genie)
Jean Genie, let yourself go, whoah
Sits like a man but he smiles like a reptile
She love him, she love him but just for a short while
She’ll scratch in the sand, won’t let go his hand
He says he’s a beautician and sells you nutrition
And keeps all your dead hair for making up underwear
Poor little Greenie, ooh-ooh
The Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks
He’s outrageous, he screams and he bawls (Jean Genie)
Jean Genie, let yourself go, whoah
He’s so simple-minded, he can’t drive his module
He bites on the neon and sleeps in a capsule
Loves to be loved, loves to be loved
Oh, Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks
He’s outrageous, he screams and he bawls (Jean Genie)
Jean Genie, let yourself go, whoah
Go!
Go!
The Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks
He’s outrageous, he screams and he bawls (Jean Genie)
Jean Genie, let yourself go, whoah
Go, go go!
Edward Lodewijk “Eddie” Van Halen (born January 26, 1955, Nijmegen, Netherlands – Died, October 6, 2020, Santa Monica, California), when he was 7 years old in 1962, was brought by his parents to immigrate to “promising land”, United States, with a capital of 50 US dollars, and a piano. They live in California, in one house, with three other families.
His father Jan van Halen is a musician, clarinetist, saxophonist and pianist, and works as a cleaning service. Her mother, Eugenia van Beers, of mixed European blood – called Eurasian – worked as a domestic helper. Eugenia van Beers comes from Rangkasbitung, Banten. Eddie’s father met Eugenia in Indonesia, during the Dutch colonial period. Eddie said “We came from another part of the world with no money, no steady job, no place to live, and couldn’t speak English,”.
“What saved us was because my father was a musician and gradually met other musicians and performed on weekends, from weddings to anything to make money,” said Eddie.
Eddie then told about the discriminatory treatment he received because he was of European-Asian (Indonesian) descent. That treatment he got while studying in America.
“My first school at that time still separated white and colored students. Because I was considered a second-class citizen at that time, I was equated with black people. It was very difficult at that time,” he said.
Eddie said that his family really enjoyed playing music. Even when they were little, Eddie and Alex often played music with pots and pans, while their father practiced music. Eddie himself never learned to read musical notes. Even so, he argued that he had sharp hearing.
“I am blessed with good ears. I have to see my fingers move. Believe it or not, I can never play guitar well in the dark. I have to look at my fingers,” he said.
