Behle - Nature Boy

Of course, the song Nature Boy is not entirely new. And yes, of course, cover versions are a dime a dozen. But if one of the grains of sand turns out to be a pearl, it absolutely has to be mentioned. The song actually comes from the hands of Eden Ahbez from 1948. Today's version comes as a wild mix of jazz and electro pop and is from the band Behle.

Behle, that is Isabelle Schieblich together with her husband Christian Schieblich. While Isabelle found her way into a musical career in her childhood years with the recorder and later classical guitar, Christian's sister first had to ask her brother, who had just grown up, for guitar support. Guitar and he became one and so it happened that their paths crossed in Erfurt in the study of music education. Behle was born. With musical role models such as TOTO, Billie Eilish and Ella Fitzgerald, won music competitions and first experiences as the opening band of Silbermond found two that harmonized musically (and not musically). The couple plays mostly jazz and cover songs. However, their own pop compositions are also sometimes included.

Inspired by childhood memories of car rides with dad and loud music, their band name was tied to Marius Müller Westerhagen's "Wo ist Behle". And like host Bruno Moravetz, we desperately want to know where Behle is....

In any case not on the moon (rather in Erfurt), although we could think such in their video. In the style of the little prince, we marvel at space and the growth potential of a single rose. Meanwhile, on Earth, a modern dance performance takes place in front of a stony flower arrangement. And somehow the song is the same. A bit spacey and rocky, with an engaging rhythm and beautiful vocal artistry. It has become a wild and chaotic version that has a character like a musical and, above all, a high addictive potential. "The greatest thing..."

Again, a pearl that invites you to dance.

We can sing along anyway.

Listen and Dance
