What’s a Girl to Do, indeed?
I read today that one of my favorite music videos of all time (and definitely of 2007) for a song I really like was selected by Directors File as one of their top ten videos of 2007. Well, yeah. I know I’ve posted it before, but I think that was on the “old” blog, so here it is on the new - “What’s a Girl to Do?” by Bat for Lashes.
And one that’s quickly moved to a top position in 2008 (though that’s not a big deal since it’s only the 22nd of January) is this one by Hot Chip for “Ready for the Floor.” Other versions have been pulled down by the record company (when will they learn??) so here’s hoping this one stays up for a bit:
The video made me love the song. The song made me really like the band (and yes, I downloaded some free mp3s from music blogs to learn this), and THEN I bought their previous CD and pre-ordered the upcoming CD from Amazon. They got $30 of my consumer spending dollars. See how that works?
Also, I want to make this herb bread.
All right then. “O Fortuna” is up in my playlist. I think I’ll call it a night after that thunderous finish and finally finish reading “Seeing.”
