Both this song and the scenes in the videos are taken from one of my favorite films of the last few years, The Shock of the Future. A tribute to the women who helped to create electronic music, The Shock of the Future is a wonderfully inspiring film. Go watch it!
But watch the music video first.
Enjoy!
Happy Twin Peaks Day! 37 years ago today, FBI Agent Dale Cooper arrived in the town of Twin Peaks to investigate a heinous crime. Things would never be the same.
Sometimes, only the singer at the local roadhouse seemed to truly understand.
Don’t let yourself be hurt this time
Don’t let yourself be hurt this time
Then I saw your face
Then I saw your smile
The sky is still blue
The clouds come and go
Yet something is different
Are we falling in love?
Don’t let yourself be hurt this time
Don’t let yourself be hurt this time
Then your kiss so soft
Then your touch so warm
The stars still shine bright
The mountains still high
Yet something is different
Are we falling in love?
Falling
Falling
Are we falling in love?
Falling
Falling
Are we falling in love?
For the record, it’s tempting to credit David Lynch as director of this video, especially since it utilizes scenes from Twin Peaks. That said, he’s never been officially credited as director and, given how documented his career became online, I have a feeling that, if he was the director, he would have been credited as such. As an artist and a filmmaker, Lynch understood the importance of being credited for one’s work. So, for now, this video’s director is listed as unknown.

Yep. Still singing it. Sorry, Canada.

It’s true, they don’t!
Today, as we celebrate America’s success in the Winter Games and as we get ready for what will hopefully be a big 250th birthday celebration in July, a song about trucks just feels appropriate.

Today, the Shattered Lens wishes a happy birthday to Texas’s own Jennifer Love Hewitt!

Here’s a classic music video from X.
When I was looking for a music video to share today, I discovered that the majority of the music videos had recently been uploaded to YouTube were AI. It wasn’t just that the videos were made with AI. It was that the singers and the songs were often AI as well! That was disturbing, especially since most of the AI artists didn’t sound that different from their autotuned real-life counterparts.
Needless to say, I was happy to find this from Exene and X.
Enjoy!
Today, we wish a happy birthday to the one and only Victoria Justice!

It’s Ash Wednesday! Sharing this song by David Bowie is a bit of an Ash Wednesday tradition and I’m going to keep it going this year. (Yes, I understand the song isn’t actually about Ash Wednesday but, for me, it is.)
This is from a 2000 performance in London.
Enjoy!
Happy Mardi Gras to all!
What can I say about this video other than it’s definitely authentic? There’s a lot of people who will be able to relate to every word of this song. This guy actually reminds me of more than a few of my cousins. The fact that the song features more than a little Cajun French only contributes to the authenticity.
Today’s music video of the day is the latest from the great Black Keys!
Enjoy!
