NOT REALLY REAL In typical fashion Mariah Carey delivers a self-indulgent fluff video of nothing but herself. The best part of this video is the black spandex & choice of retouching and lighting used to slim her ass down, outside of the images from the brilliant OZ movie. With that said, I LOVE THIS SONG. It's old school and her voice is rocking it. Thumbs Up, way up her butt! Check it below & buy it HERE !  [...]

Buy Gotye 's long one, Making Mirrors HERE (Amazon) or HERE (iTunes). This is one of my favorite tracks of the album.

I am just super confused about this new song and imaging. I feel some-what skeptical and every time I hear (or see this imaging) I think more [...]

Truth is, David Bowie doesn't do anything half-assed. If he's going to do something, its going to be fucking perfect & fucking eclectic. The man is still flawfree and full of the amazing charisma and passion he always had. He does not miss a beat.

Press play and see how it's done and learn from the best. You might recognize a few others from the short film. Watch [...]
