''I Am Kurious Oranj'' is the eleventh studio album by English art punk band the Fall. It was released in October 1988, through record label Beggars Banquet. == Background == ''I Am Kurious Oranj'' was written as the soundtrack for the ballet ''I Am Curious, Orange'', produced by contemporary dance group Michael Clark & Company, and themed loosely around the 300th anniversary of William of Orange's accession to the English throne. The album combines studio recordings with tracks recorded live during the ballet performances in Edinburgh in June 1988. The opening song "New Big Prinz" (as well as its alternate version, "Big New Priest") is lyrically based on "Hip Priest" off the group's 1982 album ''Hex Enduction Hour''; the original track was also used in the ballet as a backing tape. "Jerusalem" is an adaptation of William Blake's hymn using Hubert Parry's original music (although Parry doesn't appear in the credits). "Last Nacht" is a remix of "Bremen Nacht" off the group's previous album, ''The Frenz Experiment''. One song which was written for the ballet and performed but did not make the album was "Dead Beat Descendant". It was later re-recorded and released on ''Seminal Live''. The album's title is derived from Swedish director Vilgot Sjöman's films ''I Am Curious (Yellow)'' (1967) and ''I Am Curious (Blue)'' (1968). The title appears as ''I Am Kurious, Oranj'' on some parts of the packaging formats. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「I Am Kurious Oranj」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
