Anouk-Modern World



This is a very awesome song and music video!The song is very Amy Winehouse-ish,and in fact the artist is sometimes refered to as a "Dutch Amy Winehouse".Also the video is absolutely amazing,and directed by the always wonderful and amazing music video director,Melina Matsoukas.(She's in the list of my fav music video directors,along with David LaChapelle,Sophie Muller and Dave Myers(I think that's his nameXD).The song is talking about the downsides of our modern world.Like how some people are very shallow,how some judge people on their looks,think everyone should look wonderful even if it means plastic surgery,how some "parts" should be bigger than others,it also talks about how men and women shouldn't cheat on one another,and how some people,famous or otherwise,adopt kids for show and don't take good care of them,ect.Its a very wonderful song with a great message and wonderful video.:)

I also wanted to meantion to everyone,if you haven't already,go watch Leona Lewis' Bleeding Love music video(UK version!!!).I know most of you have probably since the music video here in America,but we got the sucky version:P so watch the brilliant UK version on youtube.It,again,was directed by Melina Masoukas.The UK version is very colorful and creative.It shows an apartment and everyone in it in different stages of relationships.It also have Leona Lewis wearing a gorgeous 40 POUND dress,and she really gets to perform,so check it out!.:) Note: The water in the video is a metaphor of the building actually "bleeding love".

Like I meationed before,the UK version is much better.Watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_f8nJSAzsH4&feature=related  I would have embedded it,but the person has embedding disabled>_< Anyways,let me know what you think and what version you like better!^^
