Okay... so I'm listening to Jacinta - Electric Universe. And it still gives me goosebumps after hearing this song for months. It definitely belongs as high as it does on IDR's top 175 list.
Out of curiousity, I headed over to YouTube to watch the video. Basically, Jacinta stands on the corner of what looks like an Australian city and sings. No story, no visuals, no anything. I closed my eyes and focussed on the lyrics and her oustanding voice instead.
Which made me wonder... why is it that dance songs have such great lyrics but such unwatchable videos? Sure, there's some great videos likes Bonnie Tyler - Total Eclipse Of The Heart, or the excellent Judy Torres - Hello No.
So why instead do we get less-than-spectacular videos for such great songs like Eyewitness Ft Charlene - I've Never Been To Me? |
