dad showed me Klaus Nomi at the ripe age of 7, grew absolutely obsessed with him and still hold a love and appreciation for his music. I’ve only ever really had one question.. is he satirical? i love his music so much but you cant go through his catalog without having a laugh at some songs. was he dead serious in everything he’s done or was he kinda silly? especially considering its opera-pop which is something i didn’t know could even be. i feel I’ve never been able to find much of any interviews with him unless i havent searched deep enough but ive genuinely been curious

Had to black out some stuff, sorry abt the messy pic

Hello community thank you for welcoming me in.

I found out about Klaus through viewing David Bowie’s SNL performance when he performed with Klaus. I was immediately drawn in by his look but I was astounded to hear him outclass Bowie sonically on that night in his backing vocals.

I will be in New York next month, a city that I now know Nomi got his start in the underground New Wave scene. All this said I am just looking to see if anyone knows of any museums, exhibits, or locations where artifacts from the life of Klaus are on display? I would love to learn more about Nomi, yet I haven’t been able to learn much outside of Andrew Horn’s “The Nomi Song” (2004) and figured I could gain an education of the experiential variety with proper guidance.

Thank You all.

Just as the title says: The moment I saw this pin, I had to have it. My favorite thing is when anyone asks me who he is, and I get to introduce them to his wonderful work. ☺️

I hand painted the Nomi tuxedo hat :)

The book is "Bowie: The illustrated Story" by Pat Gilbert. I picked it up for my girlfriend from Ollie's for $10. They did our man kinda dirty. His eyes are closed. :(

Seems like it belongs in a museum. I was looking for what happened to the black and white suit when I found this

who else gonna twerk until they drop bc klaus music is back on streaming

as someone pointed out not too long ago, most of his music has been taken off streaming services. a few days ago his self titled was back on spotify but is now suddenly gone once more. anyone know what’s going on?

I noticed one of his songs was grayed out on my playlist and looked and saw that both Simple Man and his self-titled were removed off all streaming services (Even including the automated Youtube uploads.) Does anyone know why this happened or if they’ll ever get put back up? It makes me sad to think that now most of his discography is significantly less accessible.

I just recently discovered Klaus and I’ve become obsessed.

I have both albums, Za Bakdaz, and Encore. I also have the I Feel Love digital single.

Is there anything else? I can’t find anything else for purchase but I’m hoping there are outtakes or demos or something that may have leaked into the fan community over the years? I can’t get enough of his music.
