It's a wrap

"I have been a fan of both Roy and clingfilm all my life. Roy, I cannot say why, perhaps just because he has a mysterious and enigmatic quality. Clingfilm has always fascinated me from a small child, it is supple and sensuous, clinging and yet transparent. To put the two of them together just seems to me at once the most natural and the most desirable thing in the world. Something in Roy seems to call out to me to be wrapped."

Ulrich Haarburste explains the reasoning behind his genius Roy Orbison In Clingfilm Website.

(Incidentally, a bit of link-following has led me to discover the man behind Ulrich, Michael Kelly, has also written a much-needed parody of misery memoirs called My Godawful Life under the pseudonym Sunny McCreary. Sounds sick, wrong and very, very amusing...)
