These last few months have been: weird, abnormal, frustrating, depressing, angry and inspiring. I've been struggling to find myself. And fighting internally with what I want out of life. Nothing, or everything. I'm completely unsatisfied with almost every aspect of my life. BUT, in these most difficult of times in my life, I have been able to find solace in one thing. Art. I'm searching desperately for art and beauty every single day, and with this new journey of discovery, I'm finding myself surprised by such little things, that I had never seen before, hadn't seen in a while, or just ignored. Because my blog has been neglected, I decided that starting today, I would share with you some of the things I find. At least that will motivate me to pay more attention to you. Today's dedication is going to be to music videos. An art form with tiny little treasure's hiding in piles and piles of shit. So, if you have the time, please watch these, and try and see what I see. You won't be unsatisfied. Trust me.
We'll start with Tool. Every video of theirs could easily be called a masterpiece, but here are three of my favourites:
Schism
Parabol/Parabola
Vicarious
Now, of course, Lady Gaga:
Bad Romance
Telephone
Michael Jackson:
Remember The Time
Bad
Kanye West:
Gold Digger
Runaway <---- this one is a good half hour, but incredible
And now the rest:
Destination Calabria - Alex Guadino
Drive - Incubus
Freak On A Leash - Korn
Single Ladies - Beyonce
Nothing Compares To You - Sinead O'Connor
Counting Bodies Like Sheep To The Rhythm Of The War Drum - A Perfect Circle
Everybody Hurts - R.E.M.
The Beautiful People - Marilyn Manson
1234 - Feist
Here It Goes Again - OK Go
B.O.B. - Outkast
And before I start getting mad because I forgot a whole bunch, I'm done. Enjoy and please feel free to tell me about your favourite videos because I'm quite sure there's some amazing stuff I haven't seen yet.
