Music video. If like this or are even a little intrigued, you have to see the documentary "The Nomi Song". Klaus was a fascinating character. (Get it from Netflix or download it or whatever.)

Oct 10, 2008 - Pure magic. There was an awsum documentary made about him, The Nomi Song was the title, if you want to know his story, check it out.
Godgotron Says:
Oct 10, 2008 - Me too to a certain extent, but since he's very infiminate in his vocals and was avant garde with his brand of pop music with opera style vocals the characters that ressemble him the most to me are both from the same movie ,the 5th Element with Bruce Willis. The blue singing female alien and the Chris Tucker diva.Im sure all 3 were inspired by him, hell if Micheal Jackson, Visage, Pete Burns from Dead or Alive were, surely 3 movie characters were based on him as a futur Pop Diva archetype.

Godgotron Says:
Oct 10, 2008 - No your not, i adore him and im hetero. He doesnt sound or look gay to me, Boy George and Steve Strange from Visage did, Klaus was too much of a weird character to be classified as gay. Maybe his voice makes him appear gay to some homophobes. Speaking of homophobes i have 2 funny videos about a particularly bad homphobic gay guy in denial, a friend named Lance Manload on my channel.
Godgotron Says:
Oct 10, 2008 - He did a Public Service Annoucement that claims that all gay guys are pedophile predators, and that its a contagious disease..

Oct 10, 2008 - If you get the Nomi Song documentary DVD (Netflix has it), the writer of this song explains the meaning of all the songs he wrote for Nomi in the extras on the disc.

Oct 10, 2008 - It's such a sad documentary. I was in tears by the end.I wish I had seen him the way his music and show were supposed to be
kingxofxsuede Says:
Oct 10, 2008 - He actualy was very gay. He also indulged in having sex with random guys very much before he became famous for being "Klaus Nomi"

Oct 10, 2008 - Klaus Sperber (January 24, 1944 - August 6, 1983), better known as Klaus Nomi, was a German countertenor noted for remarkable vocal performances and an unusual, otherworldly, elfin stage persona. Nomi is remembered for bizarrely theatrical live performances, heavy make-up, unusual costumes, and a highly stylized signature hairdo which flaunted a receding hairline. His songs were equally unusual, ranging from synthesizer-laden interpretations of classic opera to covers of 1960s pop r.i.p

Oct 10, 2008 - edguitar you ar a horrible evil sick fuck nomi was a remarkable man all youve probably done is stick your dick in a cows ass
Godgotron Says:
Oct 10, 2008 - rofl @ Edguitar, the opinions of obviously sick religious nuts means nothing to me.Fan of Sum 41 to boot! XD Im sure they would love what you said. Please do us a favor, keep talking smack, youl get killed by some random violent guy. If you give us your last name & city we will gladly take a piss on your grave. If you kill the random violent guy, youl end up in jail & youl get raped with AIDS. Your going to hell, you deserve it with that shitty attitude brainiac! Unless you apologies & change.
Godgotron Says:
Oct 10, 2008 - Btw to make sure you understand what im saying, im not threatening or really wishing death upon you, didnt mean any of it.Was purely to put you in OUR shoes for a moment with basicaly the same heartless comment you made on Klaus.Someone we admire that did nothing to you, a man who was all about love & fun, creative and talented, inspired tons of people, to this day he's unmatched.Someone who says the things you did is bound to have bad things happening to him in life & afterlife, its karma

Oct 10, 2008 - klaus nomi c'est pas pour les fondus du cerveau!
sal4fun Says:
Oct 10, 2008 - YES!!! i've been listening to him since '81 and this is the 1st time i've seen him on video, except when he sang back-up for bowie on saturday night live. my passion for everything nomi can't be put into words. around '95 i went as him on halloween. made the tux out of a pizza box... i don't know many people who appreciate what he was and he was taken way too soon.

Oct 10, 2008 - This song makes me so damn sad. He just seems so happy to be there and it breaks my heart knowing he's gone. :(
