Britney Spears - I Wanna Go

July 22, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments

As you may be aware of (if you've read any of my other posts), I have known about Britney ever since she released her first single: "...Baby One More Time". And I have to admit, this music video is probably one of my favourite yet. She has had lots of critical responses and a lot of difficulty in her life, but it definitely looks like she's taking control of it, which is really great.

This marks Britney's third single from her fifth studio album: Femme Fatale. And is probably the best single to describe her whole album, although, the album is quite a mixture of everything, and together it is blissfully one of Britney's best albums. I think this song is probably my 2nd favourite song from the album, and I really hope that her next single will be "How I Roll", but if it isn't I don't mind much since I really like this song. As for charting, it is currently climbing up the top 200 in the UK chart, however it is officially released next week, so hopefully the single will make an impact (I'm hoping for No.1 since the last time she was there was with "Everytime" and that was in 2004). As for her albums, she has never ever had a No.1 album, which really surprised me when I found out, I just hope that in the near future she'll get a No.1 album.

This song was written by Max Martin, Shellback and Savan Kotcha (Max Martin and Shellback helped Avril Lavigne write her whole album, and they also helped with Britney's latest album so it shows how interesting their songs can be). This song again hits out at the paparazzi, although many have complained that she is attacking them again. But in my opinion, they're the ones attacking her, did anyone not see the video footage of them following her all over the news? If she is constantly followed how can she have a life? The paparazzi are to blame for many deaths from Princess Diana to Amy Winehouse (possibly, this is all what I think and I could be completely wrong). So if everyone decided never to read a newspaper or magazine ever again, if everyone decided to never tune into the news, either on the radio or on the TV, would people (famous or not so famous) still be alive today? I personally think so.

The music video is AMAZING! It is one of the best Britney videos for a long time, and I really like the funny side of things. I love how Britney is styled, people say she reminds them of Avril Lavigne, especially with her different coloured hair extentions, however she reminds me of when she was younger and just starting in the music industry, I really like her looking this way and you really wouldn't expect her to do the things she does in the music video, which is what they wanted the impact to be like. Also, I think she looks really well, compared to her music videos when she was a little off her head and not quite right, she looks well on track and it's really nice to see her this way.

I love the start, it is a similar take on the old film: Half Baked, and it's really funny when she says "you're cool", it makes me laugh every time. I also like the t-shirt she is wearing, which is a cropped t-shirt of Mickey Mouse, which relates to when she was in "The New Mickey Mouse Club" which I never watched. I cannot believe the journalists would ask those sort of questions either and to be honest what sort of questions are they actually asking? Who would ask anything so stupid? So she walks out wearing studded combat boots (that I didn't think Britney would ever actually wear, but I really like them), and signs her album and grabs the guys ass, I like how he is so happy that he jumps in the air, to be honest I think anyone would be happy.

I like how she blows a kiss to a baby who's whistling along to the track, and then the amazing bit when she flashes for the policeman, only the whole street sees, and I love the shocked faces, especially the ginger kid as if he's never seen anything like that in real life hahahahahahaha. The policeman, who looks like Britney's Ex-Husband Kevin Federline, then decides to search Britney up and down her legs while she's bent over a car, then we get a flash and we see Britney walking away spinning handcuffs on her finger, while the policeman is buttoning up his shirt (I wonder what they've been up to..... And surely not in the street! That kid would have a heart attack!)

She is then surrounded by paparazzi, which must relate to her everyday life, which is kind of surprising as there is quite a few of them snapping photos without her permission (and yes I know that if you are a celebrity you're bound to have the paparazzi following you and taking pictures, but still...). So she smashes one camera, which I think is good for her, and then she runs away and climbs up onto a yellow taxi. Which is a little dramatic but then again.... And she swings her mike around and hits the paparazzi, which is obviously done by using special effects on the computer, but it is done well, and I can't help but watch again and again. I really like the idea of the cinema behind, which is showing "Crossroads 2: Cross Harder" which is such a good idea, and represents Britney's first debut film, "Crossroads". I like how it is similar to "Die Hard 2: Die Harder" which has to be the best sequel name ever. But does this suggest what everyone is thinking? Will there be a sequel to Crossroads? I sure hope so, I loved that film and have probably watched it too many times by now, but will there be a sequel? If they do decide to, then it's not too late, it could mark the decade anniversary of her first film debut......

I like how there's a link with "Terminator 2: Judgement Day", with the paparazzi creeping back up showing that they are robots and are prepared to get every shot possible. This is a super nice twist and sort of explains the paparazzi to people, it shows they don't care about anyone and so will do their best in their interests and not anyone else's. Then guess who comes along.... It's Guillermo Díaz, who starred in "Half Baked". He drives alongside Britney and tells her to jump in, to help her escape the paparazzi, she is then dressed in a pink bikini top, and dances while standing up (if you look into the background you can tell that they are in front of a "blue/green screen". While Guillermo drives he decides to pour milk over his head. THIS I DO NOT UNDERSTAND! Why do such a thing? If someone could help me I'd be happy to know the answer. Anyway.... Britney is a little turned on that he does such a thing, and then sparks fly from his chest and she realises he is a robot too.

I like the ending particularly, you are taken back to the interview with the journalists screaming at her, and so she thinks she has been day-dreaming. Then Guillermo says "no more questions" and Britney tells him about her dream, and he pretends to be stupid, and then, in a link to Michael Jackson's "Thriller", as Britney is lead away, he turns around and his eyes glowers red, and he laughs hard....... It is a brilliant ending, to go with one of Britney's most iconic music videos.

Overall I cannot fault this music video, except for the milk bit which I do not understand at all. This music video will probably be remembered again and again, and I can definitely see the music channels using this loads more times in the future. I hope you all agree that my rating is fair, and this music video definitely does deserve it!

Miley Cyrus - When I Look At You

July 21, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments

Miley Cyrus is only 18 and she still gets a lot of people saying that's she's a bad example. But surely most people at 18 were trying to find themselves and become a person they like, and she doesn't want to be this sweet innocent Hannah Montana anymore, and that should be okay with everyone. She has recently started focusing more on her film career but has apparently had free time to spend in the recording studio, so, even though she said she was taking a break from music, it looks like she's ready to come back after just a few years. She is a very mature 18 year-old as there is many 18's who are innocent and don't really want to break out of their shells, whereas 9 out of 10 people (possibly), has some idea of who Miley is, and therefore she is quickly becoming a superstar in this world.

This song was released as part of the move: The Last Song (based on the book by Nicholas Sparks). Miley Cyrus sings this song amazingly and it works well with the film (where she is the main character). The song is full of emotion and you can definitely hear that in Miley's voice. I first thought she had written the song, and I'm disappointed that she didn't, but she managed to link with it and that's why this song is so strong.

As it was the main single to be released from the film, it would, obviously, have scenes from the film. But there is also a little bit of a surprise. Liam Hemsworth (plays Miley's on-screen boyfriend) appears in this music video. Since Miley and Liam started filming The Last Song, they have been in a relationship, that has been on and off for quite a while. From the latest update, they are still going strong together, but I do wonder how long it will last, but we'll just have to wait and see.

There isn't a lot to this music video, but that's to be expected since it is a ballad. They filmed it well, attempting to link it in with the song as much as possible, but there's only so much they can film with Miley playing the piano.

I like the idea of Liam walking up to the piano, fusing, possibly, Miley's two loves, which kind of works with the song, and I like how they made sure everything is pretty slow as it goes really well with the song. I also like the little scenes of them together, from them running on the shore, with the waves breaking behind them, to them hugging on the end of the pier, and then Liam sprinkling the love-shaped hearts over her, it's all just amazing to watch.

I really like the ending idea with the bit where she sings "you appear like a dream to me", the scenes are then super-imposed on one another and they all bend together, it kind of makes everything dream-like and as if you have imagined the whole music video.

BUT!!!!! There is a lot that Miley sings about that could suggests a lot of great music video ideas, and I totally understand that it is a soft ballad, but they definitely could have done a lot more with the music video, it kind of seems as if they didn't put a lot of thought into it and just did it there and then, which is the only problem with this. They definitely could have done it a lot better.

Overall, it's a great song, and Miley's voice fits it almost too perfectly and I can't help but listen to the song again and again, but the music video, although it's sweet and innocent and works well with the song, could have been a hell of a lot better if they would have looked into the lyrics a bit more.

Theory Of A Deadman - Lowlife

July 20, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments

I have been a fan of Theory of a Deadman for quite some time now. They are one of those bands that I like but never manage to get chart success and so therefore I stop liking them until a new song comes out that makes me fall in love with the band again. This song has definitely heightened my interest yet again in the band, but unfortunately, even though they released this song, it didn't get enough sales for it to get into the chart, so unless they release another catchy song, I do really wonder if I'll get back into the band again.

I first became a fan of the band in 2008 with the release of "Hate My Life", which actually managed to get into the UK chart, and is currently the only single from Theory of a Deadman to manage that. Theory of a Deadman is a four-piece Canadian rock band consisting of Tyler Connolly, Dave Brenner, Dean Back and Joey Dandeneau. They have released a number of singles and albums, although not managing to capture the UK audience. I think they should promote their music more over here and that way they'll be able to get onto the UK charts more often, hopefully.

This song is about being a "lowlife", obviously. Tyler sings about being who you want to be and having "the whole damn world in the palm of my hands", which suggests that who cares what others think as long as you're happy with yourself then you have got the whole world. This shows a movement to music, most songs tends to at least touch on this subject, and I'm really glad that it's being thrown in all of our faces just to show that anyone can be anyone and it's not your right to change them.

I LOVE this music video, apart from the fact that "Mr. Lowlife" doesn't make being a lowlife appealing, and although he is the exact description Tyler sings about, I think he still is disgusting. However this works really well with the song and totally suggests everything that Tyler sings about.

I like the whole narrative side of the storyline, well apart from the very beginning with the blurred out bit, that is a little disturbing and disgusting at the same time. I really like the ice cream bit, I think that is funny, along with the bowling ball, how can anyone not enjoy that bit? And the ending is a little extreme, but maybe they were trying to interest other audiences, although I don't think it worked as much as they anticipated.

I really like the guitar solos and the way they film the band members in the caravan. I really like at the start that Tyler is playing the guitar with a bottle in his hand, it totally suggests everything he is singing. I really do like this song, and can't help singing along whenever I hear it, I just hope they find UK chart success sometime soon as they clearly deserve it.

Overall the music video is a fist full of laughs, that you can't help but smile about, but some bits are a little over the top and could be considered gross and disgusting, nonetheless, I totally enjoyed seeing this music video for the first time along with the song, as I totally enjoyed that too. I can't wait for new music and I'm very interested in what the next music video will be like. I just hope more and more people download the next song, as I'm sure it's going to be good, and I hope it manages to get onto the chart at some point.

Paige - Young Summer

July 19, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments

Paige is a rock band that apparently started back in 2006, they have supported a number of acts on their tours including Kids in Glass Houses. They are destined for success, and as they complete their first album they are getting more and more popular. This song was released as an EP in January 2011, and I have only just recently heard this song. I know it is better than some bands that are out now, and I really am looking forward for their new songs as I feel that they are going to be really good songs, and I so hope they enter the UK singles charts some time soon as I can definitely see them being one of the UK's best rock bands, competing with the likes of Lostprophets and You Me At Six.

Paige is a 5 piece pop-rock band consisting of Lewis White, Arthur Walwin, Aaron Hunt, Paul Hinwood and Alex Tillbrook. They are the sort of rock band I enjoy listening to and I've probably seen this music video about 5 times already. I think it's a great song and I can't wait for more music from this interesting and different rock band.

According to Paige: "Young Summer is a bit of romantic story about the summers when you were young and didn't have a care in the world, just hanging out with your friends partying all night." This is easily reflected in the lyrics, and the music video coincides nicely with what the song is all about.

I like how people go flinging into the pool, one way or another, whether they meant to do it or was pushed into the pool is so funny to watch, I like how some of them go flying it's really funny. I also like how there is a storyline to go with the song and music video. And how it comes full circle.

I like how in the song the crowd has some lines to sing, it gives the song that 'Tour' kind of feel when the vocalist hands the mike out to the audience, and you hear the crowd singing the song, this really interests people and also suggests what Paige is like on stage, the band would probably be amazing live.

I like how you have the three people who think they can get any girl they want, and tend to push people out the way to try and get what they want. However when it comes down to it all she is after is the person with the right personality, who was the person she was talking to before he got shoved out the way the first time. I like how that particular person gets his own back by shoving the last guy into the water and then kissing the girl. This music video is simple but really good and interesting.

Overall the music video is really good and works well with the song, however it looks a little on the simplistic side and the editing between Paige singing and then the narrative storyline didn't work that well. Nonetheless the music video is really good and it's interesting, and I hope you agree that my rating isn't too generous.

Radio Killer - Lonely Heart

July 18, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments

Radio Killer is a dance group, they are from Romania, who is currently becoming a big shot here in the UK, artists such as Inna, Alexandra Stan and Edward Maya are all making a big impact on the UK chart, and it won't be long until Radio Killer gets there too. Romania is vastly producing amazing club songs that is forever getting stuck in my head, I'm pretty sure it won't be long until all the artists they are producing will all appear in the UK chart therefore allowing Romania to be dominating our charts, and it would be a different chart since America is usually the country that does the best in the UK.

Radio Killer, as far as I'm aware of, consists of two band members, Lee Heart and Paul Damixie. However they did a competition that ran for nearly a year called "Who is Radio Killer?", this helped them to get their first single "Viola" high in the Romanian chart, but I am unsure whether there is more members than just these two, if there are please correct me. Anyway, Radio Killer are now trying for international success, this song is big on the music channels here in the UK, but, as much as I want this song to chart, I don't see it happening, as I'm unsure when the release date for this song is, or whether it is already out. I don't have a clue, and the only way I can see Radio Killer doing any good is if they promote their songs here in the UK. Anyhow, I hope they do well and I'm interested in hearing more songs by them.

The song is about being in a relationship and he has just broken up with her, now she's a "lonely heart", and Lee Heart sings about how she is missing him, and when she's falling asleep she keeps "dreaming" about him. It is a really good song although doesn't leave a lot of inspiration for the music video. However I think they've done a good job in theory.

The music video takes place in a club or at a house party, and everyone is frozen apart from Lee and Paul. He is walking in and puts the DJ deck on and as soon as the music starts everyone starts moving and dancing. I like how raw the party looks, there is people kissing and then there is little fights and some people pushing each other, which kind of gets in the way of Lee Heart and she's quite surprised at some points, as if this is not meant to have happened. If this was the case then surely she was really anxious when she had to lie on the floor, which links in with the lyrics really well, as it proves how much of a lonely heart she is, and she feels dead to the world, she is that lonely that if one of those people had stepped on her she wouldn't have cared, although they wouldn't have shown that in the music video.

I don't think there is a lot more to say about this video. To be honest I think it kind of reminds me of the 2nd book of Twilight: New Moon, as it reminds me of when Edward breaks up with Bella, and she is a "lonely heart", and she's daring to do anything that may bring him back. I think it definitely links in with the fact that Lee Heart lies down on the floor.

Overall it is a good first international single, that should do well in the charts, however I don't see it getting very high in the charts. I also think the rawness of the music video highlights the song really well, and shows it really good, however the rawness could also be bad and suggests a low-budget music video. So hopefully everyone will agree with my rating.

New Release: Paramore - Monster

July 18, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments

I have been aware of Paramore since about 2007, I imagined them to be another average rock band, with some really good songs. However I hadn't actually properly listened to them, and when my cousin, Tink09 and her friend Hollagram Star asked me if I wanted to go to their concert in February 2008, how could I have said no? "The Final Riot Tour" was my first ever standing up concert, and so far is my only one. Their support acts are really big now and it's surprising that they were supports. Kids In Glass Houses and New Found Glory were joined them on stage, and Kids In Glass Houses came outside before the gig and talked to about half of the line, and yes our little crowd got talked to also. I have been obsessed by this band ever since and by the looks of things I may not be the only people on the planet who is obsessed with this band. Their third and latest album: "Brand New Eyes" managed to get to No.1 here in the UK, which is a phenomenon for a rock band that was just your average band back in the day. Recently they have lost two founders of the band, and this is their first single without them, and surprisingly, it is probably one of their best songs ever. I cannot wait to hear their fourth studio album, because if this song is anything to go by, we'll all be blown away!

Paramore, in this music video and currently, consists of three-band members: Hayley Williams, Jeremy Davis and Taylor York. Hayley Williams is the only original member, she has vibrant orange/red hair, that is never the same. She has gone crazy once in a while, from "Brick By Boring Brick" video, where she is blonde (Which didn't work at all as it looked like the band was trying to be your average band, and the certainly aren't that) to the other end in the "Playing God" video where she has pink hair (Which made her look like a doll, with a dainty expression). But I am in love with her hair this way, it is completely red, however she has blonde roots, and it really works, and is amazing when she's in the water.

The song marks their first ever song without the "Farro" Brothers. But is it better for them? I think this song is really good and proves exactly why everyone has fallen in love with the band. The song is about being yourself, and being happy because you are yourself, hence "I'll stop the whole world, from turning into a monster, eating us alive". It's quite interesting as there is a lot you could do with the song. Some fans have said that it is linked to the "Farro" brothers and that all the emotion is about them, and although I agree that they have turned into monsters (joke), I still don't think Paramore writes their songs because of past people. They have written about each other, and their relationships, and this has worked with "Brand New Eyes", but Paramore isn't the normal hatred band, and so there's no point speculating about it. This song is one of the credit songs for the 3rd Transformers movie, and appears on the soundtrack.

There is quite a few things that the people who make the music video could have come up with. I really like the water idea, although I don't think Jeremy and Taylor was too happy just lying in water, while Hayley got all the credit for singing the song, but I guess that comes with being a guitarist and drummer. Anyway, this is linked with the first few lyrics: "So solid now you're like water. And we started drowning, not like we'd sink any farther." And I really like the idea of the "hospital" and how it creates a haunting effect.

I like how they are in the one room, and are getting angry (Hayley swears she had bruises from that day, Jeremy thought he broke his little finger, and Taylor fell over in a mad fit of jumping and kicking the wall. I only know this from the behind the scenes video). I also like the idea where they are running away from the explosions, and they end up in the room where it first started with them taking their anger out on the wall. It was an attempt of "stopping the whole world from turning into a monster", but by attacking it they were obviously fuelling the building into turning into a monster, and so once they stopped and ended up back in the room everything settled. This is a really good idea and will relate to a lot of people. Many people think that the world revolves around them and they can shape it this way and that, in doing so they manage to hurt many people, but there are people out there who don't get hurt, the people who do not follow this guy or girl; no matter how much mental or physical abuse is thrown at them they will not change, which is the moral of the story of the song, as people want to be themselves, and no one can stop them from doing that exact thing. It's what that person want to do, they want to be themselves and you shouldn't have control over that no matter who you are.

This really reminds me of the reports from the papers a few years ago, that revolved around the case of Sophie Lancaster. She was a goth, however, someone who would express themselves. As far as I know, her and her boyfriend Robert Maltby were attacked outside their home. Robert was attacked first, and Sophie came out to try and help. She ended up having serious head injuries, ended up in a coma, never regained consciousness, and later died. Her boyfriend ended up with injuries but managed to recover from them, however he did slip into a coma. This song feels like it could be dedicated to this couple, since they were maliciously attacked for being exactly who they were.

Overall this is most definitely my favourite song by them, Hayley's voice is so crisp and perfect and full of emotion, I can't help but enjoy listening to it over and over again, and the music video is AMAZING, it's subtle with a little bit of an edge which captures me every single time. I know I may be a bit biased, but I truly do think this music video deserves this rating, I don't think I can fault it at all.

New Found Glory - My Friends Over You

July 17, 2011 Critic Jonni 2 Comments

When I chose to do a review on this music video, I hadn't realised that I had seen it before on the music channels. I chose it simply at random knowing that it was older than 2007, and was the highest charting song New Found Glory has ever played. It managed to get to No. 30, which, I have to say, is pretty good for a rock band, and I believe that was thanks to the music video rather than the actual song, and even though a lot of people can relate to the song, I really don't think that they managed to sell enough records based on the song. It was pretty rare for a rock band to make it into the UK Top 40, there were a few bands managing from Evanescence to My Chemical Romance, but it really was rare to see a rock band inside the top 40, but with the amount of rock bands out now who are easily managing this, it'll be quite the battle to attempt to get inside the top 10.

This is my second New Found Glory music video review, so some things I say will be similar.
New Found Glory is a 5-piece American rock band, who have released a number of singles, and a number of albums all of which haven't done that well on the chart compared to Paramore and other well-known American rock bands. The band consists of Jordan Pundik, Chad Gilbert, Steve Klein, Ian Grushka and Cyrus Bolooki. who all appear in this music video. They have a new album on it's way out, and I really hope the music channels take to whatever song they release, as they have been going for quite a few years now and have yet to have a major hit, so I'm really hoping that soon they will gather the success they clearly deserve.

This song is called "My Friends Over You". It was their first single to be released from their second album "Sticks and Stones" and third single overall. The song is about being with a girl, but once they find out about their personality they aren't interested hence the start of the chorus: "You were everything I wanted, but I just can't finish what I started". Also they seem to be only interested in the girl's looks, this is proved in the lyrics by: "I'm drunk off your kiss, for another night in a row" and "Please tell me everything, that you think that I should know". This girl is nothing compared to his mates, and that he likes his mates because of their personalities, whereas he only likes this girl because of her looks. There is a lot that could be done with this video, but did they do it right?

This video I have seen quite a few times, however personally it's not that memorable, if you would have shown this to me about 6 months ago with the band name blurred out, I would definitely not have a clue who this was, and that sounds really bad since I went to the Paramore concert back in 2008 with my cousin Tink09 and a friend Hollagram Star, and this band was one of the support acts, which seems weird since New Found Glory has been going for well over a decade, whereas Paramore has only been going for about half the time.

I really do think this is a unique idea and how his friends have their own weird problems, from frantic legs to bloating heads, from a very fast guitar solo to freaky hairy legs. He would still prefer his friends over her. Furthermore, there is a lot to laugh about in this music video, lots of little funny jokes, from "typical video girls" who are attacked by a blow-up caterpillar who are then replaced by three guys "look at us" who are attacked by a cute, blue, blow-up dolphin; to the Gothic choir singing that is an instrumental about a third of the way through, which is so dreadfully weird it is amazingly funny.

This is another video where it's spot the famous faces, according to Wikipedia you can find 4 famous faces, who are the three people from the "Transplants" (Travis Barker (from Blink-182 and +44), Tim Armstrong (from Rancid) & Rob Aston) and also Brody Dalle (From The Distillers), all of which I don't really know, if you showed me a picture I'd probably recognise each of them, but I have no clue where they are in the music video, although I recon they are the most obvious and probably have a 3 - 5 second clip each, so if you know who they are please tell me where they are hidden, or not hidden.

Overall I really like this music video, it gives an essence of what the band is like on stage, but also suggests a uniqueness that some bands are unable to capture. This music video is pretty out of the ordinary, however it is very easy to forget who the band is, if you haven't seen the music video in a while. Also they could have done a lot more, such as including a love interest for a member of the band, presumably Jordan since he is singing the song. But maybe they had already stretched their budget too far. I'm looking forward for new releases from these guys, and I really hope they manage to do really well with whatever single they choose to release next.

Billie Piper - Because We Want To

July 16, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments

I have been a fan of Billie Piper ever since she first came out in 1998. The first time I ever heard of her, was when I was sitting infront of the TV (only a kid back then) and I was watching the music channels. It was probably the first time I had ever watched a music channel, and I remember this coming up, it was shown straight after Britney Spears' "... Baby One More Time", and I loved it straight away. And to be honest I still love it now!

Billie Piper was first a singer back in the late 1990's/early 2000's, but shot to fame with her acting when she came into the new revised series of Doctor Who, where she played Rose Tyler. But when this song was first released it went straight to No.1 in the UK charts, and she holds the record for the youngest ever solo female artist to have a UK No.1 hit, and it doesn't look like anyone will beat that record in the next few years. Could she still be holding that title after she's gone from this world? Who knows? With the amount of young singers nowadays, she may not hold the record for much longer. The only other female artist I can think of who ever came this close to beating Billie Piper was JoJo, who managed to get to No.2 with Leave (Get Out). Not long after her greatest hits album, she disappeared from the world of music, and years later appeared on our screens as the new Doctor's Assistant, in the new series of Doctor Who. She became a character everyone loved, and a character that, when appears in a one-off episode, gains a hell of a lot of ratings to the BBC drama series.

She has been in many films since she's left music, and although she was never passionate about music, there is still a slot for her in our charts. She will probably be lost to music for the rest of her life, and music will miss her so much, but if her heart is in acting, then go for it, but she will sadly be missed, as Chris Moyles proved one day, when he tried to interest listeners into downloading "Honey To The Bee", back in 2007, and guess what? She managed to get to No.17, which is such a surprise, and totally proves that the music industry has a slot still for her, and her fans will help her in anyway possible. She could easily become an actor & singer, many American artists and Actors do it so it's about time Britain started, and Billie could definitely prove herself.

This song is the cheesy sort of pop that I was brought up on. It was very common in the late 90's to have this sort of music playing. The song is about freedom and doing the things you want to do hence "because we want to". It is definitely cheesy, but it's good in the way that is interesting,

The music video is imaginative and clever and links a lot with Doctor Who, many fans reckon there is a lot of links, from an early Cyberman to a Judoon, she was obviously destined to appear in Doctor Who, only then no one could have possibly have known. I like how Billie has "super powers", she came from a UFO, which definitely is Doctor Who like, and at just 15 she loved throwing her names on things, such the billboard poster.

I definitely like the dance routines, it was very common then as kids liked to copy the dance moves and try to imitate them, and yes, I did do that back then too. But it was how it was, now, about a decade later it is starting all over again, you'll getting a lot of girl groups, boy bands, and mix groups coming up with dance moves that kids are likely to copy, and with the added use of the fact that bands from the 90's are re-forming, cheesy pop could be making a return in a whole new style and format. Could this be the perfect time for Billie to come back to the music world? I really hope so.

The camera is a little on the jumpy side, but that is to be expected, and the graphics are not the best, however I remember thinking WOW at the time as back then they were pretty good, however if the music video was ever re-done it would definitely be improved a hell of a lot.

Overall I am giving it a reasonable rating, because I think the camera could have focused more on the dancing, as I remember having to watch the music channels a hell of a lot of times waiting and waiting for this song to come on so I could perfect my dance moves, that is my only problem, but otherwise it's been interesting rating a music video which is over 10 years old.

JLS Featuring Dev - She Makes Me Wanna

July 15, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments

I have been aware of JLS (Jack the Lad Swing), ever since they appeared on the X Factor, since coming second (Alexandra Burke won the show back in 2008), they have had all of their singles, 6 of them, set inside the UK top ten (four of which has managed to get to the top spot, No.1). This is another single that is sure to make an impact on the charts, and with a successful world-wide featuring artist: Dev, on this track too, could they possibly go worldwide? We'll just have to wait and see.

Back in 2008, JLS hit the TV screens appearing on the X Factor, they had a lot of competition against new and up-coming artists, who are just starting their break-through right now. To be honest, I wasn't a big fan of JLS, especially since Louis Walsh was mentoring them and Aston Merrygold was the lead singer, and the other three people in the band were like back-up singers, this didn't fair well with me since they are a young band, and so trying to pull off a Westlife/Boyzone similarity didn't really work with them. After the X Factor, they have grown on me, now that there is no frontal singer, and each of the band members get to sing their own part, which makes them to the similar young boy bands such as The Wanted.

JLS consists of Aston Merrygold, Marvin Humes, Jonathan Benjamin "JB" Gill and Oritsé Williams. They have teamed up with Dev (real name Devin Tailes), who is an upcoming American Artist who has already had big hits world-wide, which suggests that this song by JLS might help them make the US chart, however there is nothing confirming this just yet, although I am interested in how well they would do over there. Will they ever make it global? We may never find out, but if they ever do, they will be the first artists from the X Factor who have not won, but have become world-wide stars, but we'll have to wait and see, before we put that label on them.

This song is very catchy and you can imagine it being played a hell of a lot in the clubs. The fact that they sing "Direct me to the floor", definitely suggests clubbing, and it's such a feel-good tune. The lyrics represents going out clubbing and meeting a girl who they'd do anything for. This is where Dev comes in and sings/raps about what they would do while together such as "getting icies", which I think are ice lollies/Popsicles. I definitely like this track and I'll be surprised if it doesn't reach No.1 as it's clearly going to make an impact on the charts.

The music video, again, is an eye-candy piece for both guys and girls. It goes with all the summery tunes that are coming about now and show that this is definitely a summer song. I think the lyrics are not taken into account much, except for the "L.A. to Africa" and "London to Jamaica" as there are planes flying in the background which are obviously computer effects as it would be awkward to get that many planes to fly over them and shot it perfectly, besides they are also quite low.

Dev has many costumes she wears when she sings her bit and it works well with the song even though it doesn't really relate to the lyrics. I also like the amount of people jumping up and down while they are around JLS. Furthermore I like how this video could appeal to kids as JLS are doing some dance-moves that kids will probably try to imitate, and this will influence them into liking the song even more, and they could pretend they were JLS while they are doing the dance moves.

Although, there is not a lot to this music video and there is only a little amount one could comment on, it is definitely a feel-good song and one that will be stuck in someone's head for a few hours before they hear another catchy song. However the music video doesn't really link in with the song lyrics, and that explains why I have given it the rating I think it deserves.

New Found Glory - Kiss Me

July 14, 2011 Critic Jonni 2 Comments

This is such a feel-good video, I don't know how some one could dislike it. Anyhow, this song is sung by New Found Glory, whose songs never ever appealed to me until I went to see Paramore live, with Tink09 and Hollagram Star and New Found Glory were one of 2 support acts for them. I didn't know any of their songs but quickly learnt that I'm going to have to listen to them more often, as they were amazing live. As one of their last songs before Paramore came on, they sang this very song, which had only just been released, although it wasn't promoted enough, and everyone sang a long, and it just felt like magic. Come on this was my first ever standing up concert, and also you can't possibly tell me you don't know the lyrics to this song, and you must have been singing-a-long when you played this video. If you comment this telling me you didn't, well then you're just plain well lying, as you can't but help sing-a-long to this amazing song, even if it has been adapted into a more rock kind of version.

I have only found out that the original version was sung by a band called "Sixpence None The Richer", I have no clue who this band is and apparently they reformed back in 2008 but with no new release material, doubt they'd do better than "Kiss Me", I'm sorry but I'm being frank. This song has been covered lots of times, but most notably Avril Lavigne tends to sing this song whilst on tours, and although she has never released this as a song, she rocks it on stage and she definitely knows how to sing it well. However I don't think anyone would be able to beat this version from New Found Glory, and although it never got high on the charts it will forever be remembered as a cover that rocked.

New Found Glory is a 5-piece American rock band, who have released a number of singles, and a number of albums all of which haven't done that well on the chart compared to Paramore and other well-known American rock bands. The band consists of Jordan Pundik, Chad Gilbert, Steve Klein, Ian Grushka and Cyrus Bolooki. who all appear in this music video. They have a new album on it's way out, and I really hope the music channels take to whatever song they release, as they have been going for quite a few years now and have yet to have a major hit, so I'm really hoping that soon they will gather the success they clearly deserve.

The song is about being in love with someone and kissing them a hell of a lot, it suggests a cry out to someone they hold dear but who doesn't quite know it yet. It was originally thought that the lead vocalist of "Sixpence None The Richer", was singing to a girl since she sings "bring your flowered hat", therefore suggesting a Lesbian relationship, which sounds probable and also reasonable, it also makes sense since kissing someone of the same sex is usually frowned upon so she may be crying out her frustration of wanting to kiss the person she likes when she wants to. New Found Glory puts their own spin on it suggesting that they want to kiss this person but have yet to make a move, and maybe wanting for her to make the first move?

I like how the music video is full of FUN. Everyone on the set had a great time, I like the idea of attempting to link in with same-sex relationship, especially when Chase (the boy with the tally on his arm) almost kisses a guy, I can't help but laugh at that. I love the tree house, if there was anyway of doing that when I was a kid (or even now) I'd take that chance, it's a place of FUN, and I really don't think anyone would get bored of it, or even if they did, the next generation would come a long, and so it kind of makes it into an adventure playground.

I definitely like how you can find people in the music video who are quite possibly more famous than the band members. There's the obvious 2 people, who are Chase Dodds (drummer of Classic Addict) and Hayley Williams (vocalist of Paramore), however there are many more, including the rest of Paramore (well the band members who was in the band at the time: Taylor York, Josh Farro and Zac Farro) which you may only glimpse, but they are there. And guess who else...... Cassadee Pope (vocalist of Hey Monday), makes an appearance, although back then there was no Hey Monday, so she just happened to be there. I won't tell you where they pop up because that will give our little game away, see if you can spot them. No cheating people! There are probably a few more, if you spot anyone else please comment, I want to see if I can find them too.

I like how the video shows how much fun the band has, and if you go to one of their gigs (even of they are just supporting) you will totally understand why this video is full of fun. I am very much fond of the narrative story side, I like how they combine the band to the narrative right from the start. And I cannot believe Chase would kiss 8 girls before seeing Hayley Williams tut tut tut, clearly he thought the women (and a potential man) was better looking than Hayley, so glad she gave him a right slap. But then again people could look at this the other way and wonder why he only got 8, were they short of girls? Or did people really not want to kiss him?

Girls would probably be fans of the ending, especially how they take his shirt off, in my opinion aren't they giving him exactly what he wanted in the first place? Guys don't tend to just want a kiss, if this is true it would explain the reason why he only had a tally of 8, could he have been doing other things? I also like the bit where people jump off the top and land on the mattress, keep a close eye on that........

Overall this feel-good anthem has turned into the most fun song ever, and although the music video reflects the song to a moderate extent, if they had done it as exactly as possible wouldn't they have been copying Sixpence None The Richer? Anyhow, as it's a cover I'll let a few things slide by, and since it's put me in a great mood, I have no choice but to give it the rating I think it deserves.

Nicola Roberts - Beat of My Drum

July 13, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments



This is the debut single from Nicola Roberts, one of five members of Girls Aloud (other members are: Kimberley Walsh, Cheryl Cole, Sarah Harding & Nadine Coyle). I have supported Nicola ever since I was young, and first saw her on Popstars: The Rivals. I remember sitting in front of the TV, hoping she would get into the band, and I was happy when she did. She is the youngest band member in "Girls Aloud", at just 16 she became part of the band, and the other girls sort of protected her (according to Kimberley Walsh), which kind of explains why she was more of a background person, within the group. However over the past few years she has proven herself that she belongs in the band, after many critics saying she is hardly there. She managed to sing some of the verses in the recently released Girls Aloud singles, and the critics have taken back what they initially said. Now she is hitting it big style, and attempting to fit her electro-pop music into our chart, and it's making the perfect impact she wants.

The song was written by Nicola Roberts, along with a few other people who would have helped her craft what she wanted, into lyrics. The use of "Baby in the corner" can link in with two things, one thing is that she was the youngest member of Girls Aloud, but also it links in with "Dirty Dancing" as it's one of the most commonly used well-known lines from the film, and people can't help but say that specific line in an attempt to copy Patrick Swayze's voice. I also like how she hits back at all the critics who said she doesn't deserve to be in Girls Aloud "Leader of the pack get on that track, swing your back and don't look back" which tells them that she's making the music she wants and it's making an impact on the chart, it also shows that she has come a long way from where she first was in Girls Aloud. And she is no longer the baby in the corner.

There is a lot of ways the lyrics could be moulded into an amazing video, however a lot of the lyrics come from very different sides. You could, supposedly, follow the dirty dancing theme that appears in the first verse, however the second verse is different singing about a "captain attending" and "I put on my marchin' boots". It shows she's grown up a lot and she is confident now because she loves the way her music has turned her into the person she always wanted to be. So instead of trying to create a narrative, they decide to do a typical electro-pop music video that is so good you can't help but watch it over and over again.

At he start you have two freestyle-dancers who dance to the beats of the song, which totally engages us right from the start, and you are aware that this song is definitely good. We then see Nicola up on a stage singing her song at quite a quick tempo, with speakers piled up behind her, this represents her and shows that she is a good singer. We see the letters "D-R-U-M" flash quickly by on the screen which gives the music video a different feel to it, as if there is more to it than meets the eye.

I like how in the second verse, when she sings "I put on my marchin' boots" she is walking a certain path, and she "marches" to an extent. And I like the showing of the drums, it also reflects in with the "marchin'" as it's a marching band. I think this is a clever idea and works really well with the song.

When we come near the end of the music video, Nicola has her hair up, I sometimes I have to do a double take just to make sure it's actually her. I also like the use of the cheerleader's pom-poms to make the letters of "L-O-V-E" and the use of Nicola as part of each letter is a great idea.

Overall, even though it is simplistic and doesn't look like it took a lot to make, there are a lot of intricate detail that you probably miss the first time around and some bits must have been really difficult to film, and although it doesn't follow the lyrics really well (which would've been difficult to do in the first place), it is a really good video, so I hope you all agree that my rating is fair.

Room 94 - The End

July 12, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments

Room 94 is the new rock band from the block, they are becoming more and more popular on the music channels, and this song is probably played most often. They are the sort of band whose songs don't interest you right from the start, but the more times you hear the songs the more you like it, until you can't stop playing it.

The 4-piece rock band consists of Kieran Lemon, Dean Lemon, Sean Lemon and Kit Tanton. On the occasion I've seen this music video, I've always thought I recognise a few of the band members. Well Sean Lemon appeared in a band called "Saving Aimee", who I was a big fan of until they split up. So now I have a new band to follow, and this band is kind of an addiction. They are currently "unsigned" according to Facebook, but with their fan base growing and the frequent amount of YouTube hits, and a sold out gig in Manchester, UK, they could possibly become the sort of UK rock band we've all been waiting for.

The song lyrics create a picture of a relationship that is on the fringes of dying, and the guy is processing how much he wants to be with her "I walk the streets, I'll be screaming out your name", however he is aware that they can't save the relationship: "We thought we could save it, but we're far too late". This is perfect material to think up a great video to coincide with the song, especially since he said "As the night start to end, I won't go out without a fight", suggesting that one more chance and the relationship will work. However doesn't that contradict the fact that he's just said "but we're far too late"? Or is he just suggesting that she should give him one more chance rather than deciding there's no turning back? I may be completely wrong, but that's what I think the song's meaning is.

The video, as I have already said, has nothing to do with the song, well apart from the fact that it's a rock song, so you tend to get a mass of people jumping up and down. Although some of the people in the background doesn't really suit what the band stands for. But none-the-less, it isn't too bad a music video, but it doesn't express what the song is about, but then again not all music videos have a narrative storyline, for many different reasons.

I really like Dean Lemon's "I'd Do Me" T-Shirt, everytime I read it I can't help but smile, I'd definitely get one for myself if I ever come across one. I also like how you can expect people to act if you ever go to one of their gigs, especially since people are jumping about, which people do a hell of a lot of at concerts, and there is not much else you can do apart from jumping along with them as you are usually squished and because others are jumping you really have no other choice but to jump along with them.

I really think this band is pretty raw and individually different from other upcoming rock bands, I'm pretty sure they have their little place on our music chart, as there is a bit of a gap for rock bands, and I'm pretty sure it won't be long until Room 94 manages to fit into that gap.

Overall even though the music video doesn't reflect the song at all, it coincides nicely with it and they seem to be having fun although some of the people in the background clearly just wanted to stand out and be able to show their friends that they're in a music video, however they look out of place and really doesn't suit the band at all.

Ola - All Over The World

July 11, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments

This is definitely going to be a scorcher if promoted enough. I could so see this song getting to number 1 when it gets released, although no release date has been revealed yet, I can't wait, as it is the most catchy song I've heard in a long time and I can't help but sing a long and dance it is an amazing song.

Ola is a Swedish dance singer, and has gained a lot of top hits in Sweden. By the looks of things this will be his first international release, and I really hope he does well. Sweden is releasing a lot of great dance superstars into the UK, we already have Basshunter, September and Swedish House Mafia. Let's hope Ola gets to be the next Swedish dance megastar, with the ever-growing fan base all over the world, I hope more and more people end up following him "All Over The World". This is probably already a big hit in the clubs, and it definitely is one that you could listen to over and over again.

The song is so catchy it is unbelievable, but I have to stop listening to it so that I can write this review just for you. The lyrics have been changed for the international release, and some Swedish people are surprised by that, however it is really common for lyrics to be missed out and edited for certain audiences. Ola sings about asking this person to follow him "all over the world", which suggests that this song is quite personal to him, especially since he'd go all over the world touring and promoting, if he becomes international, and he is sweetly asking a girl to go with him "next flight is your flight". his voice accompanies the song really well and you definitely can hear the emotion in it, which really gives this song the interest it deserves. I am hoping to at least see this on the chart sometime soon.

The first time I saw this music video, I thought Ola Svensson was actually Andrew Stone, as I had heard Andrew Stone was starting a music career, and I was excited when I first saw this, but then when I saw the banner at the bottom it said Ola, which confused me more, so after I looked it up on the Internet, I was surprised that it wasn't Andrew Stone, as they both look very similar.

I like how the music video has a feel-good feel towards the song, it shows that it represents the song, the genre and the lyrics really good and interests the audience in straight away. I like how it shows that they've just had a house party, with people lying here there and everywhere, and gambling chips are stacked on the table, and for some reason a guy has vampire teeth, maybe he thought it was fancy-dress?

When the girl goes into the bathroom,I really like the "Follow Me <3" message that she writes on the mirror, for some reason bathrooms tends to be shown as a sexy kind of place, which really doesn't make any sense to me, they're usually sleazy in my opinion, which kind of explains the blonde hair girl. I also like the chin-ups they do on the train, it's so unnatural and unexpected, it'll just be weird if anyone did that in a train here in the UK.

I also like the ending, and how it leaves it as a cliff-hanger, however again this would show in the daytime where children may end up watching it, were they wouldn't really understand what is going on, but since it's only subtle hints, it's not very noticeable.

Overall this music video goes well with the song, and is very catchy, and you'll probably end up watching it more and more often, like I have. I really do see this song being a big hit in the UK if it gets promoted enough, but we'll see.

New Release: The Wanted - Glad You Came

July 11, 2011 Critic Jonni 1 Comments

This is The Wanted's 5th overall single, but their 2nd single from the as-of-yet untitled 2nd album. The have been a big hit here in the UK, managing to already score a number 1 with their first ever single: "All Time Low", and their other singles have all managed to get inside the top 20. Could they get another number 1 from this single? We'll just have to wait and find out.

This boy band consists of five members who are: Nathan Sykes, Max George, Siva Kaneswaran, Jay McGuiness and Tom Parker.They all had their 15 minutes of fame before starting this group, but they wasn't in the lime-light for long. Now they are getting bigger and bigger, and people are becoming more and more aware of who these guys are. They will definitely become a well-known band. With boy bands such as JLS and One Direction, these boys have competition on their hands, but I think they'll stand their ground and get their worthy chart numbers.

So this song is called "Glad You Came", it's about having fun and being with the person you like and spending time with a party or out in the sun. They sing about being "glad you came" and "the sun goes down, the stars come out" giving the night-light appeal. However I like the fact that there is a hidden meaning to this song, the people who are old enough will know what I'm on about, and I really can't help but laugh whenever they say "Glad you came". Having two meanings is a really good idea, which will probably help boost this song to number one easily.

The music video has a lot of eye-candy in it, for both men and women. I definitely like the start, it's kind of like an introduction, this really represents the video, and although it was probably used to use up space on the video, it works neatly within the song as the song is slow-paced at the start. The editing from one shot to the next is dead on time to the beats in the background of the song, this gives it a fast paced feel that definitely represents the song.

I like how each band member is with a girl each, this way it shows they wasn't short on people, and it also made it easier to shoot, although some things are a little over-the-top considering children or kids may end up watching this, especially since it may turn out to be number 1 on the Singles Chart.

There is so much going on in the music video, it is difficult to keep up, and even though the fast-pace relies well on the song ad the music, it becomes difficult to follow, and towards the end you give up. But then it all slows down again, for the perfect little outro that suits the song and the music video really well.

Overall it's a catchy kind of song that will be hitting the clubs all over the UK. There are various scenes, from a club, to a house party, to the beach to the water. There are pillow fights and beach volley ball. But everything goes by so quickly that you only see some bits after watching it 3 or more times over. Which is probably intended to help raise the YouTube hits. Anyway this will almost definitely reach number 1 and I'll be surprised if it doesn't.

Cascada - Everytime We Touch

July 10, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments

This is one of Cascada's first ever songs and music videos. In their early days they released many covers and did a few cover albums, before they crafted some of the best original dance songs ever heard. This song takes the chorus of "Everytime We Touch" by Maggie Reilly, with original verses. This song was Cascada's biggest hit before "Evacuate the Dancefloor" topped the charts in 2009, "Everytime We Touch" got to No.2 on the charts, just missing the top spot, thanks to "Hips Don't Lie" by Shakira. This song is still a big hit, as you can tell by the YouTube comments, and there are a load of remixes for this song, which just goes to show this song is a club classic, even though it's only 6 years old.

As I have previously said, Cascada is a 3-piece German Dance group who consists of Natalie Horler, Manian, and Yanou. They are well known now after a few big hits, and DJ Manian has released quite a few solo singles which doesn't make an impact on the charts, but definitely makes an impact in the clubs. Cascada has recently released a new album called "Original Me", which also has a "Greatest Hits" CD included, which features all their hits and more, including this song "Everytime We Touch".

The song is about wanting to be in a relationship with someone but something's holding them back, maybe someone's in the way, or they were friends before hand and don't want to break the friendship up. However Natalie Horler sings about how she likes to be with this guy and they should at least give it a go, because "Everytime we touch I get this feeling". The song is really catchy and should have got to number 1 but it just missed out.

The music video takes place in a Library, and Natalie is after a geek, it clearly shows that she likes this person, as it's probably not the looks she's after. I like how she messes up the library, and the guy follows her about trying to tidy it back up again. I like how she dances on the tables as well, as library's are supposed to be quiet, and no one would dare to play lots of music and sing and dance on tables.

I like how Natalie gets evils from the background characters, but then they too start dancing along, as if the music has empowered them and they just can;t help but move. However there isn't a lot to this music video, and only links in with the song slightly, I don't know how you could make it link better though.

Overall, it's a great song that should have got to number 1 on the chart, but none-the-less, the music video is okay and definitely deserves the rating I'm giving it, maybe I'm being a bit too generous. I hope there is more great Cascada hits on their way!

Danny & Freja - If Only You

July 09, 2011 Critic Jonni 0 Comments

Before I start, I want to state 2 things, 1) there is 2 different music videos for this song, one is the clean version (which is the one that is shown on the music channels, and also the one I'll review today) and then there is the explicit version, which is a little over-the-top. 2) this song has been re-worked, it was supposed to be Danny and Therese, however, for some unknown reasons Therese has been replaced by Freja for the UK release, and any future releases, I suppose.

Danny Saucedo is a big hit in Europe at the moment, he has released a a total of three albums so far, and a number of singles. Most of his songs are big dance songs, which are getting popular, our chart is quickly becoming obsessed with Euro-dance artists, which makes a change from the constant American artists. This single was released in 2007 in Sweden and Poland, with it featuring Therese. However it is being released as his first single (or their first single) in the UK. I am very interested how he will do, since quite a few Swedish artists have done well in the UK (From Swedish House Mafia to Basshunter to September and so on....). I have never heard of Freja, and I don't think she is well known, however she is a great singer, and I'm wondering if this is a new direction where they become a duo, or it might be a one-off sort of thing. Although on the original "If Only You" it's Danny Featuring Therese, where as here it's Danny & Freja, so they might end up being a duo......... But We'll just have to sit and find out.

This song will probably, most definitely be played in the clubs, maybe the remixes as well, however it is quite a slow dance song, which we are not used to in the UK, so it could go either way, but to be honest the music channels aren't showing it often, so it might not make the chart what-so-ever. Anyway.... The song is about being in a and wanting the other person to be aware of how they are "hurting". And they want the other person to care enough to see how the other feels.

The music video does not reflect the song as well as it could of done, there is so much more that could be done with this song and the music video, but maybe they decided they wanted to show how hot each of the artists are in an attempt to try and attract the UK audience, and I admit, we are sometimes suckers for that sort of thing, but it won't work, you need a good song (which this one has the potential to be), with an amazing music video to go with it. If they really want to get high in the charts they need to do something better than this, to be honest.

There are some aspects that do relate to the song, such as the flashbacks, but there is no emotion shown in the video about how they are "hurting" and how they want to be "set free" before they click "delete". This music video looks like the sort of thing that you'd want to watch again, but on the second watch you decide you really don't like it, and the whole song kind of drops down with it.

I decided to look at the explicit version, to see if there is better links to the song, but there really isn't that much difference, although some people use it as a substitute for something else, as you can read on the comments, but if this song makes the top 40 I will be really surprised, and will base it on the fact that the song is the best part, and it has nothing to do with the music video.

Overall I feel like I'm being a bit harsh, but the truth is, is that if they want to release in the UK, they should of researched what kind of music videos we like, and tried to do something similar, perhaps a music video that has a full story-line rather than leaving us unsure of the whole idea behind the music video. I hope you will all agree with my rating.
