While doing my morning check-in on the web I stumbled on the music video for Disturbia by Rihanna. I still love the song but I am not a fan of the video. I think mostly because up till now when I heard the song I pictured my own video. My version of the video had Rihanna and I driving in my car, top down, it had just rained outside, the air was fresh and we were cruising down Jasper Ave sometime after midnight headed to the club. LOL Then it ended with your typical music video club dance scene. Check out the vid but I warn you it is fairly dark so if you picture the song upbeat then watch with your ears.
Now if you need to be perked up and have your day set right check out the video for American Boy (Feat. Kanye West) by Estelle! I didn’t picture this music video either but I am a fan of it and love some of the shots they use.
What do you think Queenie should we incorporate the shots with the three split screen vids? I thought of you instantly when I saw the fedora shot.
I’m there with ya buddy! These shots are fabulous. Not just the 3/split fedora (LOL!), but the “shadow” and the over the shoulder shots as well.

LOL yup shortly after I talked with you I finally got the Archives link to work! Horray!!!
As for blogging about that story, you know that sorta thing just isn’t me. While I don’t ignore horror and sadness I prefer to fill life with happiness. Stories like this one when you hear too many make you want to not ride the bus or leave your home for that matter.
I do enjoy the following quote from that article though.
“Meanwhile, Public Safety Minister Stockwell Day said Thursday he was shocked when he heard about the incident.
He said it was “probably one-of-a-kind in Canadian history.”
The minister said he’s not entertaining any notion of registering knives as dangerous weapons given that millions of kitchen knives alone are sold annually.”
LOL see Becca! One of a kind! You should definitely continue to ride the bus. I know I plan to when needed 😉

WOW I love how you know your music! I have never heard of John Legend until now but I did some checking and I believe you are very correct. That does look like him in the video. I think I will go check out her album too. If the rest of her music is similar I am sure I will love it!
