The song "Berlin" by Gosta Berling was inspired by the life of Louise
Brooks. Her story and iconic image have
inspired many tributes - songs, books, plays and movies. The
fascinating and frustrating saga of her life is captured in the
biography Louise Brooks by Barry Paris - which the songwriter says they devoured while
writing the words to this song. The images for this video were all
scanned from the book Lulu Forever by Peter Cowie. This song is from the band's
first EP, Everybody's Sweetheart (2007).
