Music Video of the Day: Don’t Save Me By Haim (2012, dir by Austin Peters)

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Today’s music video of the day is one of the few Haim videos not to have been directed by Paul Thomas Anderson.  Austin Peters is the credited director.  He’s also directed videos for two of my other favorite artists, Dillon Francis and Major Lazer.

The Haim sisters could definitely defeat me in basketball.  Of course, I’ve never played basketball and, as I’ve mentioned in the past, I also can’t stand to watch basketball because of all the squeaky shoes.  One reason why I prefer golf and boxing to basketball is because there’s no squeaking involved in either of those sports.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Lose You Now by Lindsey Stirling and Mako (2021, dir by Lindsey Stirling and Stephen Wayne Mallett)

Today’s music video of the days comes from one of my favorite musical artists, the great Lindsey Stirling.  This otherworldly video has a wonderfully dream-like feel to it.  Lindsey has said that the video is meant to serve as a tribute to the memory of her father.

Music Video of the Day: You Know My Name by Courtney Love (2014, dir by Maximilla Lukacs)

Yesterday, I saw that Courtney Love was trending on the site formerly known as Twitter.  Assuming that the news would be bad, I clicked to find out why.

It turned out that the news was not bad at all.  Courtney gave an interview in which she said that she personally didn’t care for Beyonce’s music and that she thought Taylor Swift was boring.  Needless to say, the fandoms are in an uproar over someone daring to have a different opinion.  Personally, regardless of my feelings about any of the singers that she mentioned, I applaud Courtney Love for reminding us that we are not required to all feel the same way about every artist.  There’s nothing wrong with having your own tastes.

A lot of Swifties responded to the interview by tweeting, “Who is Courtney Love?”

She’s been around for a while.  Maybe today’s music video of the day will help.

Music Video of the Day: Conquer or Die by Megadeth (2016, directed by Blair Underwood)

Posted on by Jedadiah Leland

This video is just Megadeth doing what Megadeth does best.

The Blair Underwood who directed this video is the same Blair Underwood who co-starred in L.A. Law and several subsequent films.  They seem like an unlikely combination, as Underwood was outspoken in his support of President Obama while Dave Mustaine was definitely not.  However, this is actually just one of several videos that Underwood did with Megadeth.  Music brings us all together.

Enjoy!
