mistake

moby apparently released three videos for mistake, the first one animated:



the second one not:



i haven't managed to track down the third one yet. not that i'm hell bent on finding it. the song and video aren't that great to be honest, but i thought it was quite interesting how the same song felt completely different in each video.

artist: moby
album: wait for me

lyrics:

don’t speak to me this way
don’t ever let me say
don’t leave me again
don’t leave me again

oh, you never felt this loss before
and the world is closing doors
i never wanted anything more

oh, you never felt this loss before
and the world is closing doors
i never wanted anything more

don’t hug me this way
don’t touch me this way
don’t hug me again
don’t hug me again
don’t hug me this way
don’t touch me this way
don’t hug me again
don’t hug me again

oh, you never felt this loss before
and the world is closing doors
i never wanted anything more

oh, you never felt this loss before
and the world is closing doors
i never wanted anything more

don’t let me make the same mistake again
please, don’t let me make the same mistake again
please, don’t let me make the same mistake again
don’t let me make the same mistake again

oh, you never felt this loss before
and the world is closing doors
i never wanted anything more

oh, you never felt this loss before
and the world is closing doors
i never wanted anything more

don’t let me make the same mistake again
don’t let me make the same mistake again
please, don’t let me make the same mistake again
please, don’t let me make the same mistake again

released: september 2009

paris is burning

here's today's video, a bit late but hey, it's still monday. ladyhawke is phillipa "pip" brown and 'paris is burning' is her fifth single. see, there's more to the new zealand music scene than just crowded house. enjoy.



artist: ladyhawke
album: ladyhawke

lyrics:

all of the boys and the girls here, in paris
sing to the night without sight, but with madness
i can't keep up, i'm a wreck, but i want it
tell me the truth, is it love or just paris?

all of the boys and the girls here, in paris
sing to the night without sight, but with madness
i can't keep up, i'm a wreck, but i want it
tell me the truth, is it love or just paris?

my heart is yearning, but paris is burning
paris is burning all night long
my heart is dreaming, but paris is screaming
paris is screaming all night long

my heart is yearning, but paris is burning
paris is burning all night long
my heart is dreaming, but paris is screaming
paris is screaming all night long

kids in the street drinking wine, on the sidewalk
saving the plans that we made, 'till it's night time
give me your glass, it's your last, you're too wasted
or get me one too, 'cause i'm due any tasting

kids in the street drinking wine, on the sidewalk
saving the plans that we made, 'till it's night time
give me your glass, it's your last, you're too wasted
or get me one too, 'cause i'm due any tasting

my heart is yearning, but paris is burning
paris is burning all night long
my heart is dreaming, but paris is screaming
paris is screaming all night long

my heart is yearning, but paris is burning
paris is burning all night long
my heart is dreaming, but paris is screaming
paris is screaming all night long

i've lost my way, it's hard to find it through
i see the night, but i'm lost outside of you
i've lost my way, it's hard to find it through
i see the night, but i'm lost outside of you

my heart is yearning, but paris is burning
paris is burning all night long
my heart is dreaming, but paris is screaming
paris is screaming all night long

my heart is yearning, but paris is burning
paris is burning all night long
my heart is dreaming, but paris is screaming
paris is screaming all night long

i've lost my way, it's hard to find it through
i see the night, but i'm lost outside of you
i've lost my way, it's hard to find it through
i see the night, but i'm lost outside of you

i've lost my way, it's hard to find it through
i see the night, but i'm lost outside of you
i've lost my way, it's hard to find it through
i see the night, but i'm lost outside of you

released: july 2006

the woman whisperer

the latest cannes showreel arrived at the agency last week. so naturally someone thought it was a good idea to get a few bowls of crisps, and some beers, together and watch them. besides that fact that we only got through a few of the silver lions before the dvd player backed up is another story.

but anyway, i thought this carlton mid spot was hilarious. it's nothing new in terms of beer advertising, but i thought the casting was absolutely perfect.

jump in the pool

it's summer. it's hot. so let's not over-think this one shall we. jump in the pool is the awesome début single from the friendly fires, it's a year old already but it still deserves a spot on any summer playlist. do it.



artist: friendly fires
album: friendly fires

lyrics:

inner city sky rise over town at night
you pushed me to the top floor so we could see the sights
i could tell that you wanted to
jump in the pool
jump in the pool
i looked at you i knew you wanted to
jump in the pool
jump in the pool

i push out
i breathe in
a stillness turning away
don't look back
don't pretend
we'll never take control again
and before that we own the horizon
am i the only one that remains?
the fear is falling away

on the poolside staring into glowing blue
swimsuit issues with my toes curled in the grooves
i could tell that you wanted to
jump in the pool
jump in the pool
i looked at you i knew you wanted to
jump in the pool
jump in the pool

i push out
i breathe in
a stillness turning away
don't look back
don't pretend
we'll never take control again
and before that we own the horizon
am i the only one that remains?
the fear is falling away

keep breathing
keep searching
keep holding on

keep breathing
keep living
keep holding on

i push out
i breathe in
a stillness turning away
don't look back
don't pretend
we'll never take control again
and before that we own the horizon
am i the only one that remains?
the fear is falling away
