High heels way up high


Kimbra's song WANDERING LIMBS was in part inspired by a filmic reference, "Man On Wire",
 a documentary film that chronicles Philippe Petit's 1974 high-wire walk
 between the Twin Towers of New York's World Trade Center.

"One day, when producer François Tétaz felt Johnson's vulnerability was unconvincing for a particular lyric, he ascertained she had a fear of heights, drove her to Eureka Tower in the heart of Melbourne and sent her to the transparent viewing platform, almost 300 metres up on the 88th floor."

Sally is recovering well, but now she's not the girl she once used to be anymore.

Space Sister


The Day the Earth Stood Still, and Klaatu had tonsilitis.
He had to send Kimbra in his place, and Gortye.

Kimbra's speech, the day the Earth stood still



Kimbra and Gortye get back into the Flying Saucer

Kimbra's speech inspired by the lyrics of her songs (in order of appearance):

             Old Flame                     Something in the Way You Are / Come into my Head
             Cameo Lover                Limbo
             Withdraw                      Good Intent
             
                                                    Wandering Limbs

...she often seems to be reaching, arms outstretched, for the melody.
 "It's really just an instinctive way for me to colour and control
 the notes or conduct them in various ways," she says.
 "It's partly subconscious and also a way of surrendering
 myself  to the music and the beat.  I feel far more
 connected  to the whole band if I can somehow
 physically  respond ... with my body."
