Amorous = the video!!!

Luckily for us, JB3 got stuck in London due to the volcanic ask malarkey, which meant he couldn't go back to the video shoot scheduled in the States. So what did that mean for JB3? Shoot the video is London, duhhh!

If you have read my earlier posts on JB3, you will know how much I love this song. In fact, since February, my appreciation for this song, Amorous, has transformed into complete adoration. This song is so INTENSELY BEAUTIFUL within its lyrics and SIMPLISTICALLY SENTIMENTAL within its vibe. And it is only right that I was hoping the same with the video.

SUCCESS!!! The video is so simple, gray-scale scenic shots of London. I love how video producers can make gritty London look so delicate. JB3's presence among the soft London background is adorable, the crazy hair and the chilled-ness as he strolls around London. What I love most is the sentimental, candid scenes of couples... Particularly the old couple lol.

I couldn't have pictured a better video for the song I adore :-D

New Music Vids

Podophilia ( The Love of Feet)

A couple of my friends produced this video as part of their coursework. It's really impressive and funny, so I thought I should share some talent with y'all :-D

Random Thought

Perhaps she is not herself because she does not know WHO she IS.

Total Embarrassment

There are so many things wrong with this video and this song... every time I watch it I find something new to laugh at....HA!! They should feel ashamed!

One of the Coolest Music Vids

I was meaning to post this a while ago but completely forgot. This video is so graceful, quirky and creative. If you haven't seen it already, you will watch it and become instantly mesmerised. The song is also really beautiful :-D Let me know what you think, leave a comment.

If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap.

If you want happiness for a day, go fishing.

If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune.

If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody

Happy Birthday Chris Brown

Now, I am far from the biggest Chris Brown fan, but before the that silly song Forever & the whole hitting Rihanna thing, I had a nice appreciation for his music. Its a shame, his vibe has kinda changed. I'm really not feeling. But hey, thats the way the cookie crumbles. Artists change up their styles to appeal to the younger, fresher audiences. They can't please wrinkled prunes like ourselves all the time.

I may as well dedicate this post to Chris Brown on his 21st birthday. It's weird realising that he has been with us as a music artist for 5 years now.

I have posted my favourite Chris Brown song. It's one of the unreleased tracks following his first album and I used to play it all the damn time. It depicted to me what I would love to feel, eventually, in a relationship. Anyway, gonna keep this short and sweet. Enjoy.

Evaluate the Self (poem)

Are you her?

Is that you?

Does your reflection represent the woman you wanted to grow into?

Are you happy

With who you are?

Or would you flinch and cringe at your own memoir?

Would you be proud

If your child imitated a life like your own?

Or regret the mistake of creating such a clone?

Do you know your strengths?

Aware of your flaws?

Perhaps now is the time to pull them with your claws.

Shoes I NEED!!!

Princesses dream the dream. Queens live it.

Is hiphop dead????

Nope... all the good stuff is covered in shit by the mainstream rappers. Not mentioning any names.

Ask me anything

Do you know who you are voting for?

No idea yet...I missed the last two live debates, so I'm gonna catch up on Monday. I'm leaning towards Lib Dem though. I'm a fan of change.

Ask me anything

what was your fave tv show as a kid?

I loved SMTV! It was the best...I wanted to go on set. :-(

Ask me anything

what is the best way to make you smile?

An unexpected compliment normally works...nothing cheesy or sexual though. Sarcasm works too. Or even better...if you smile, I smile. :-)

Ask me anything

what is one of your fave quotes?

To do and regret or to regret not doing at all. I live by this quote.

Ask me anything

Who are you 3 fave singers, currently?

No particular order, Ledisi (I love her I love her!), Erykah Badu (of course) and I dunno...maybe Esmee Denters you know...I remember when she was jus a youtuber.

Ask me anything

Who was the last person you spent longer than 5 mins on the phone to, and enjoyed the convo, not wishing to get off?

Not saying the person's name, but it was last night. Its actually a common feeling when I talk to this person on the phone to be honest :-)

Ask me anything

Are you picky when it comes to guys?

You could say that...if the personality ain't right. Also the "game"...what happened to realness?

Ask me anything

If you had to go somewhere in England for a week, that wasn't a major city, where would it be?

Hmmmm somewher new to me...maybe Somerset...I hear they have nice cosy cottages. It would be great to escape from the city and be surrounded by nature. I would bring my notebook and sketchbook, and just gret creative. Being outside the box, helps me think outside the box.

Ask me anything

Is there one person that your thinking of right now?

C'est possible...perhaps I am thinking about other things, but that person keeps re-emerging.

Ask me anything

do you believe in the idea of having one true love?

See I'm not sure about this. The whole soul mate thing. What if you meet that person and fall in love and for whatever reason he dies? Does that predispose you to singleness forever or settling for second best? And what if second-best finds his true love while ur married? Maybe its just that love isn't a concrete feeling...more like we can experience different flavours of love...I don't know *Kanye shrug*

Ask me anything

Who is one person you really want to see perform live?

Surprisingly enough, Lady Gaga...I think she would be strangely amazing. Or Beyonce, back in her Dangerously In Love days.

Ask me anything

Top three rappers at the mo?

In no particular order... Wale, J Cole, Joell Ortiz
