Well,  John Mayer  (who  Katy Perry  recently described as having a "beautiful mind" and a "tortured soul," in case you wanted to feel a lot of feelings about something this morning) has just released a new single and a new video: The song's called "Paper Doll" and it's a quintessentially John Mayer track, with a little Mumfordesque drum bit and a catchy-sweet melody, but it doesn't feel like it's really up to much. The song's release comes paired with a video that's called a video but is actually a lyric video, since Mayer's nowhere to [...]

This weeks cutie is a masterpiece. It was made by Virgilio Villoresi , who also directed the video of Riva Starr's Absence . As Virgillio says: - I used a pre-cinema technique called ombro cinema to animate the drawings made by Virginia Mori. Everything was filmed in live-action, no post production effects were employed. - John Mayer is a hella lucky guy.

Last night was the first night of Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival  which was held at Madison Square Garden in NYC. The evening started with an acoustic set from EC and continued through the Allman Brothers Band's six-song closing set. We'll have more on Friday's festivities soon, but we wanted to share an impressive covered delivered by John Mayer and Keith Urban of Don't Let Me Down. Urban and Mayer are mainstream stars who can still shred melodically and energetically on guitar. This version of Don't Let [...]

It's hard to believe another year in pop music has is almost over — and what a wild and crazy one 2012 turned out to be! From surprising new couples, reconciliations and engagements (ahem, Chavril ), to K-pop dance crazes and viral music videos (thanks, Carly Rae Jepsen ), bizarre new haircuts to bittersweet farewells, Grammy sweeps and ghost sex ; we can only wonder how 2013 will top the last 12 months. To bid a fond adieu [...]

A few days late posting this video, yes. But who cares, its worth putting up a few days after the initial hype. Just think of me as the person who walks in the party late with an epic entrance. Yeah, I'm totally that guy.

Fresh from his Saturday Night Live debut last night, Frank Ocean has dropped the epic-length 8-minute music video for "Pyramids," featuring an electric guitar solo cameo by John Mayer . In the clip, Frank shoots up a bunch of poor, defenseless bottles of liquor, then hops on a motorcycle to ride through the desert while some trippy visual effects have telephone poles bending like something out of a Salvador Dali painting. Next he has a jolly good time laughing at a bunch of strippers writhing in slow-mo. [...]

When Frank Ocean released Channel Orange back in July, we gushed that "we are not listening to the ‘norm’ of r’n'b culture of clubs and drinking; instead we have been given raw emotion of how memories of life’s highly influential moments can be blissful yet at times cause torturous pain, and Channel Orange thus works, because ultimately, this is something we can all relate to." Featuring Frank shooting up a bar and a bizarre cameo from John Mayer, it's a wonderful little clip. It was directed by Nabil who has previously worked [...]

After taking over SNL last night with John Mayer , Frank Ocean has revealed the Nabil-directed video for his track "Pyramids" .

Frank the tank! ) at a bar, then shooting it up, and then going for a motorbike ride int he desert to an awesome strip club. Afterwards he meets up with John Mayer who soundtracks his hallucinations with light-emitting guitar licks, [...]

Frank Ocean - Pyramids An official video's emerged this weekend for one of the many standouts on Frank Ocean 's Channel Orange - the exquisitely overblown nine minute centrepiece 'Pyramids'. Don't expect to hear the track in full in the clip below - it's a cinematic and suitably over-the-top take on the song that focuses on the track's spaced out, slow-jammed second half. We get shots of Frank on a motorcycle and looking a little hysterical in a strip club, as well as a guest appearance from Channel Orange guest John [...]

Now, let's make a move to the video for "Pyramids", which acts more like a [...]
