This is from the end of my favorite musical biopic, Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story. It’s a beautiful ride, indeed.
Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Bag It Up by Geri Halliwell (2000, Dir. by Dawn Shadforth)
Today’s music video of the day is heaven in a box!
Geri Halliwell’s boyfriend doesn’t appreciate her so she drugs him and then brainwashes him. Whatever works! Her boyfriend is played by Aiden Turner, who also played Aiden Devane on All My Children. Aiden left the show in 2009 and it was canceled two years later. Coincidence? I think not.
Back in the day, Lisa and I would annoy the rest of our family by singing this song at the top of our lungs. The only part that we really knew was the part about bagging it up.
Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Underneath Your Clothes by Shakira (2002, Dir. by Herb Ritts)
Back in 2002, I thought there was nothing cooler than Shakira replying to a question about crossing over to English-language music in Spanish. I still think it’s pretty cool. Shakira was one of the singers that Lisa and I always used to sing along with whenever we went on a road trip. We used to drive everyone crazy.
This was the last music video to be directed by the legendary photographer, Herb Ritts. He died of Pneumonia on December 2nd, 2002.
This song and video were both banned in Argentina because Shakira’s boyfriend (who appears as himself) was the son of a former president of Argentina who was not popular at the time.

Music Video of the Day: Better Broken by Sarah McLachlan (2025, Dir. by Lauren Wade)
After all these years, Sarah McLachlan is still making beautiful music. Here is her latest music video for the title track of her upcoming album.
Enjoy!
Maybe if I catch my breath
Maybe if I wait a little
I’d remember how it hurts and stop before I fall
I’d forget to come apart
I’d catch myself and hold on tightly
Let memory wash over me, forgive but don’t forget
So you come back to me begging
“Why’d you leave? Tell me why, how you could you let this go?”
Let it be all it is
Small and still a memory like a stone
A jagged edge made smooth by time
Let it be all it is
Small and still and better left alone
Some things are better broken
Some things are better broken
Illusions come the venom stings
Swirling visions, soft and perfect
They blur all the edges ‘til everything looks fine
So I’ll pretend I didn’t cry and you pretend that you’re my savior
We both remember what we want – to get us through the night
So don’t come back to me begging
“Why’d you leave? Tell me why, how could you let this go?”
Let it be all it is
Small and still a memory like a stone
A jagged edge made smooth by time
Let it be all it is
Small and still and better left alone
Some things are better broken
Some things are better broken
Let it be all it is
Small and still a memory like a stone
A jagged edge made smooth by time
Let it be all it is
Small and still and better left alone
Some things are better broken
Some things are better broken
