Hi Friends! This is just a quick little blog to share some more video clips with you.
In a country where Britney Spears just received the 'NJG'' Music Award (similar to our MTV award) for "Best International Artist" (I know! Tell me about it!), it is very comforting to know that the French also appreciate the more sane, intellectual, poetic and artistic side of music. Video clips are still very popular here (when's the last time you turned on MTV?) and they can be works of art.
New Soul: Yaël Naim
This one is particularly special for me because it describes someone who is moving into a new place and a new life. Like me, she's already happy, ready to put a bit of herself into what she's doing and where she's living, and what she gets in return is more than she ever imagined. You really have to watch it all the way to the end and finally everything makes sense. I was actually quite moved. I hope you will be to.
Happy Endings: Mika
Mika was also a winner at the NRJ awards (NRJ is pronounced "energy") but this time for Artist of the Year (or something like that). Well deserved.
Tais toi mon coeur: Dionysos
The refrain here is "Tais toi mon coeur" (be quiet my heart), and she replies "Je ne te reconnais pas" (I don't recognize you). This one I enjoy purely for the visual.
