Music Writing Series #4: US Vs Aussie Version

I have these two videos of this great song by my favorite singer-songwriter, Missy Higgins. It's called "Where I Stood", the first single from Missy's sophomore album, "On A Clear Night". The song has been out there for quite a while and even if it can be considered as one of Missy's old number, the song itself for me is an evergreen track that will get you moving whenever you listen to it. The two music videos for the song - one is the original Australian version while the other is the US version, as part of her promotional effort when she toured the US last year.

Now tell me, which one you fancy better? The Australian version or the US one? I find the Aussie version to be emotionally dark and it suits the overall image and feel of the song itself. Then there's the photo booth which is super cool too. The US version? Ah, I think it's too glamored-up. The outfit and all, I mean, she looks good in that purple tunic. It's just that that's not her. Oh, the one thing I like about the US version is of course the projector part. I think it gives me an idea if I want to work on that first gig I've planned for a long time.

I always like Jessica Szhor. Not that I'm a big fan of Gossip Girl but I think she's a stylish and a beautiful lady. And I guess, that's why she's being featured on Nylon TV which is one of the entities that chooses only the best-selected figures for their project. And if you look on that handwritten "i <3>

Make me feel good, someone please do "i <3>

Music Writing Series #1

Air Traffic reminded me very much of Starsailor and in this song "No More Running Away", the consistent percussion beat ala Khottal added some magic to it. Vocalist Chris Wall sounded almost like Starsailor's vocalist but only better, alive and more emotionally-driven. Perfect running away track though the song is about moving on. Great melody and lyrics. You want to sink into this now.

This is so damn crucial, I can't save it. This book could possibly be one of my saviors for my academic writing literature review. You can have a read if you want. Knowledge are meant to be shared.
