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

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

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.

Enjoy!

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.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Eclipse by Robert Koch, featuring Julian Marchal (2016, dir by Mickael Le Goff)

Happy Eclipse Day to all who celebrate!

The prediction down here is that it’s going to be cloudy and rainy today so we probably won’t have the best view of the eclipse.  That’s okay, though.  I’m always tempted to look straight at the sun during an eclipse and, apparently, that’s one reason why my eyesight gets worse with each passing year.  My friend Tammy says that it doesn’t matter because it will still get dark so we’ll know the eclipse is happening, even if we can’t see it.

Where as I?

Oh yeah …. enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Bette Davis Eyes, covered by Walkman (2020, dir by Franscisco Maestri & Julian Viel)

116 years ago today, the great actress Bette Davis was born.  Today’s music video of the day is for her.

(Bette Davis, incidentally, loved this song and said that when the Kim Carnes version was released in the 80s, it not only made her “culturally relevant” again but it also caused her grandson to look up to her for the first time.)

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Don’t Let Me Be The Last To Know by Britney Spears (2001, dir by Herb Ritts)

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

It’s Britney on the beach!  This video was controversial when it was first released.  It seems rather tame now.

This video was directed by photographer Herb Ritts and Britney’s boyfriend was played by French model Brice Durand.  Supposedly, neither Justin Timberlake nor Lynne Spears were happy with this video.  Lynne felt it was too explicit and Justin apparently had an issue with Britney kissing another guy, even though Britney was just acting, it was just for the music video, and it’s not as if Justin wasn’t messing around behind Britney’s back.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Moonflower by Blackbriar (2024, dir by Cinebuds)

Today’s music video has a very ominous atmosphere to it.  In fact, the feeling that I got, while watching it, was that it was taking place maybe a day or two before the end of the world.  That’s appropriate, considering that the name of the song’s record label is Nuclear Blast Records.

Speaking of nuclear blasts, I’m thinking of following the lead of someone who I saw on TikTok and becoming a self-employed nuclear disarmament consultant.  I don’t know that I would be all that good at the job but it sounds like I would have fun finding out.  I imagine that I would start the day by calling up world leaders and saying, “Have you disarmed yet?”  I know I’m at least half-as-smart as that woman on TikTok so …. I mean, how hard can it be?

If only there was a movie that could educate me about nuclear missiles and stuff….

AGCK!  Okay, maybe I should just leave that job up to the experts….

Anyway, enjoy!
