Music Video of the Day: Godspeed by Camila Cabello (2024, dir by ????)


Camila’s through being a blonde.  Personally, I think she looks better with her natural dark hair.

Camila Cabello has been underrated ever since she appeared in that updated Cinderella movie.  I like her music and I think this is one of her best songs yet.  The video has a moody feel that I like, even if it’s not doing much to help me with my fear of drowning.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: luminary rainbows by ionalee (2024, dir by ionalee and John Strandh)


Today’s music video of the day comes from Sweden and it definitely has an end of the world vibe to it.  (It’s indeed very probable that a few people will be alone on boat if and when the world ends.)  It’s a bit of a melancholy video but I like the moodiness of it.

Plus, melancholy and Sweden kind of go hand-in-hand.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Something To Believe In by Ramones (1986, dir by Preacher Ewing and Bill Fishman)


Wow, I had know idea that the Ramones were in it.

This video, obviously, is a parody of star-studded charity events, which were apparently as big a deal in the 80s and they are in the 20s.  Amongst those supporting the band are Toni Basil, X, Weird Al Yankovic, Ted Nugent, Penn and Teller, Harry Shearer, and the band’s Rock and Roll High School co-star, Mary Woronov!

(Do you all remember the whole U.S. Red Nose Day fiasco?  I know it’s a big deal in the UK but it’s never really caught in here in the States.  For the first American Red Nose Day, all three networks surrendered prime time to Red Nose Day and the ratings reflected the fact that 1) most Americans, despite all of the very aggressive advertising, still had no idea what Red Nose Day was and 2) gone were the days when people would watch anything as long as it was on the “major” networks.)

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Big Black X by X (2024, dir by Shane McKenzie and Gilbert Trejo)


X is still here.  That sort of longevity from the greatest punk band to come out of Los Angeles, that’s cause for celebration.  This music video celebrates both the band and their history.

Co-director Gilbert Trejo is the son of the one and only Danny Trejo, whose longevity is also worth celebrating.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Sink or Swim by OneRepublic (2024, dir by Isaac Rentz)


Are we going to sink or swim?

I would be more concerned with all of the random explosions!  That can’t be good.

Remember at the height of the COVID lockdowns, when they tried to fill all of the skate parks with sand to keep skaters from spreading COVID, despite the fact that the people most at risk of dying from COVID were also the people least likely to be hanging out at a skate park?  Seriously, people have mentally blocked out so much of the weirdness that went on from 2020 to 2022.

Enjoy!
