We Are The In Crowd is a 5-piece rock group, that has 2 vocalists, making them really different to anything that's already out there. The band consists of Taylor Jardine, Jordan Eckes, Mike Ferri, Rob Chianelli and Cameron Hurley. This song is their eighth single overall, and haven't made the UK chart as of yet, but I'm pretty sure at the end of this year a lot of people will be listening to them and I know that it won't be long until they get a chart number, I can see it! DJD is a big fan of theirs, and they are gaining more and more fans by the minute, purely because they bring something new to the table. I shall be watching them, I can see them getting very far.

This song was written by the band, as are all of their songs. The music video is really good and clever, although it is reminiscent of "Both Sides of the Story" music video. I think it's a distinct video, but it's lacking something, although there is a narrative and performance aspect.

To be honest I'm not sure what it has to do with rumours or a "Rumour Mill", but it probably links in somewhere. I wouldn't want to be stuck in that lift, although Taylor seems to be fine with it, although it may be a bit of a nuisance. I liked the other bits which are funny in their own right, but haven't got a lot of substance to them.

The performance side of the video is great, as per usual, they are a great band and you can really feel their performance vibes coming off them in this video, which makes me want to see them live, although I don't really know many of their songs as of yet.

I haven't got a lot to say about this music video, it's average, compared to their other videos, it's not rubbish, but it's not their best either, and it seems to be lacking something, although what it is is beyond me, I have no idea what's missing... Its one of those videos I'd probably watch again if it came up on the music channels, but if there's something better on, I'd watch that instead.

Ed Sheeran is this big UK artist that has just came out of nowhere and hit us all by storm. This song is his second single after "The A Team", and got quite high in the charts. I have to admit, I think this is my favourite song by him, and I also like "Drunk", but I'm not a big fan.

"You Need Me, I Don't Need You", is such a great title, and personally, if all his songs were like this one, I'd have bought the album and the singles and fully supported him, however certain songs put me off, and I now decide to use YouTube for his songs. At the end of the day he does sing: "And I won't be a product of my genre". He wrote this song himself, and his voice is perfect for it, I really want him to do more rapping in the future, it's a very unique voice that he has and it surprises me, because in his other songs, you wouldn't expect this sort of voice. I also love the lyrics how can you not?

The music video is extremely different and totally stands out from the crowd. I can totally see why Dolly is obsessed with this music video she is passionate about the song and the music video: "He is a very talented musician, it's a song about how people see him and he sees himself. The lad doing sign language is extremely skilled". And I totally agree, you can tell he means every single word he is saying, and it's like he is showing the world that he's made it just like he hoped he would, when others were knocking him down.

This song is now stuck in my head... The sign-language actor is Matthew Morgan and I have to say I'm really impressed, whether he did it slowly and then they sped it up through editing, or whether he did it that quick there and then, it's just mind-blowing, and I could watch it again and again, and maybe learn a bit of sign language along the way.

I like the use of the dancers as well it prevents the video from getting boring, and gives us more to see. The black and white effect is a bit different, but it's used in a good way, and announcing not everything is black & white, which links in with the song amazingly as Ed Sheeran wanted a music career, and that's exactly what he has got. But it took him a long time and the personal battles that he went through shows how much he wanted it. For everyone, the sky's the limit, but people go further than the sky, and here's just one example.

The music video is different but in a fascinating way. The song is so inspirational and breath-taking, as he means everything he raps and it gives us this new voice from Ed Sheeran, that we want to hear more from, cannot wait for his future releases. As for this song, I'm disappointed it didn't get to number one but number four is still pretty good.

David Guetta is now a really big, well-known DJ, and this is one of his early works. A lot of people prefer him doing this sort of thing, however this song reminds me of "Getting Over You", I think it has a similar musical background, or I could be totally wrong. But what I'm saying is that David Guetta is getting better, but he's still in touch with his older music, which everyone still loves. The Egg on the other hand is a British electro/dance music band consisting of Ned Scott, Maff Scott, Ben Cullum and Matt White. This is their highest charting position, and since 2007 no new singles have been released...

"Love Don't Let Me Go (Walking Away)" is an amazing song, it has vocals by Chris Willis, and after much comparison with "Getting Over You" I have come to the conclusion that, yes they are extremely similar. I like looking at the writing credits (there is a lot of them) so here goes... David Guetta, Ned Scott, Benji Vaughan, Chris Willis, Jean-Charles Carré, Joachim Garraud, Maff Scott and Matt White. The song was also used for the Citroën C4 advert.

The music video is technically really good, and it's pretty much narrative, but in an interpretable dance kind of way, that really makes everything work out fine. I love the use of The Energy being passed from one person to another, although, there are a few flaws. The dancing used is breakdancing and Parkour (also known as PK).

I like how it all starts, with the connection of two people, The Energy then gets passed between people, and once it's passed the person who had it before stops dancing all together, however there's one flaw found near the end when they give The Energy back to the original starters, the topless person who had it before keeps dancing (as far as I'm aware of). Also at the start where the originals pass on The Energy to the person who had a basketball, what happened to The Energy in the original girl?

Anyway, analysing over... I think it's clever, and it sort of makes me jealous, I want to be able to do that stuff. Pass The Energy my way please. I also like the fact that the car in the Citroën advert also breakdances, I reckon they pulled ideas from this music video for their advert.

That's really is it to this music video, I could watch it again and again, but I reckon it would get tedious. I don't think it's fantastic and wouldn't go out of my way to watch it, but it's technically good, so that is why my rating is so high.

Anjulie is a Canadian recording artist, and I've only just heard of her. Her name is the stage name of Anjulie Persaud, and I was quite surprised it's her actual name. I don't know how many times she has attempted to become an international star, this video (along with "Boom"), has been in the UK and Europe for a while but she has yet to hit the charts, but this type of music is in at the moment, so she has a big chance at this current time of year. Her writing credits are surprising, since she has worked with quite a few people, I'd like to say watch out for this girl, but I'm questioning whether she'll be popular here. At the end of the day she needs to be promoting her singles, or they'll get nowhere.

This song "Brand New Bitch" is not played on the music channels, instead it's the clean version "Brand New Chick", that rhymes so much better, however I couldn't find the clean version on YouTube, so we'll have to deal with this one. It sounds a lot like David Guetta Featuring Nicki Minaj's "Turn Me On", and if anyone decided to mix them together, I could see them fitting nicely.

The music video is also pretty similar to "Turn Me On", with the table that she's on and the use of the doll with it's head off. It's quite interesting how they match up. Personally I don't see much connection to this song, although the dancing is a bit raunchy which links in with the raunchy song, but that's really it, and the bit in the bridge, presuming he's the guy who left.

I really don't have a lot to say about this music video, it's below average, there could have been a perfect narrative, but whether budget made it not so good... I don't know. I have to admit I think she resembles Anjli Mohindra, and I really thought it was her when I saw it this morning, don't you agree?

This music video could have been good, but it's lacking an easy-to-follow storyline, whether that's to do with the budget, or the editing, or the camera shots... I don't know. The song is definitely the sort of song that's making the charts at the moment, and due to not promoting the song here in the UK, she failed to make the chart. If there was promoting going on she would have gained high charting position.

Finally this song has been released this week, here in the UK. I've been waiting for it for ages, and it's already climbing up the charts after just one day, I so hope it gets the charting position it clearly deserves, it is going to be Demi's biggest UK hit. Now all I'm waiting for is JoJo's "Disaster" (which has made UK music channels) and all will be good.

Demi Lovato first heightened my interest when I watched Camp Rock, and since then she's embarked on both a music and film career, I have been a fan of hers since then, and I have to admit, this song seems so personal to her that you know she means every single word. She has been in rehab lately, and has just become well enough to continue with her career. She has decided to take it easy, and so therefore has decided to focus solely on her musical career until she feels ready to branch out into film again. Her personal battles is probably what connected this song to her and that's why it's amazing to listen to, you can definitely feel her hurt.

The song was written by Toby Gad, Kerli Kõiv and Lindy Robbins. Toby and Lindy are pretty well known songwriters with a lot of credits behind them. Kerli is a Estonian artist and is trying to become international, and doing a pretty good job of it so far. What surprised me is that Demi Lovato hadn't had any input with the lyrics, however she obviously gained a strong emotional link with the song as I doubt many other artists can pull off the passion in which Demi Lovato does with this song.

The music video is stripped back, but oh so emotionally raw, every time I watch it I get goosebumps as you can tell she means every single word she's singing. Apparently the recording was before she went to rehab, and when she recorded it, it meant so much to her that she felt personally connected, and after rehab, she rerecorded it and it didn't feel as empowering, so they kept the original. Jordin Sparks provides backing vocals (apparently, it's possible she originally recorded it but it didn't make the final cut, luckily). Demi Lovato was perfect for this song.

The video takes place in the middle of Bonneville Salt Flats desert, in Utah, US. it's the perfect place for her, and I really like the heart shape in the box that gets smashed and the walking on glass and the black fabric. The sun suggests she's seen the light at the end of the tunnel and it's right there with her, so it's just perfect.

This song and it's music video shows how strong of an artist she has become and you can tell she's over all her problems, and she's ready to be that last skyscraper in the apocalypse. She is over her problems now and we can all see that, and I just have this feeling she is going to be stronger than she ever has.

The song and the music video is extremely emotional. It's rare for me to come across a song so emotional, there are only a few that makes me feel this way, none of those have released the song as a single, let alone done a music video for it, and I think this is why this one is very special. I know not a lot of people will agree with this rating, and I totally understand their reasons, but for me, this is a magical music video, I never thought I'd give this rating to a performance-based music video but this clearly deserves it.
