Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope visitors to my blogs will be my Valentines!

(I wonder if there will be earthquakes, what with all the women being immodest today.)

Madonna, not sucking

First, here's a young Madonna with "Like A Prayer" from the Golden Age of the Music Video. Click on this link to watch the full uncut original version of the video. (Warner has disabled embedding.)

And here's an older Madonna, still not sucking, and in another great video. This one is for the title song of "Die Another Day".

Hotel California revisited....

I've said that "Hotel California" is a great song that has never properly been captured in a music video. That still holds true, although the one you can watch below comes close.

It's just a shame it was made to support fairly weak cover by an performer who goes by the name TQ... and that it is a bit under-produced in spots. (Some shots look like they were designed for special effects to be tricked in, yet none are present.)

Still, it warrants a 5/10 rating, which is better than most you'll come across.

Eleven months to go!

Well... January 2012 is behind us, and we're still here.

The ancient Mayans, those wise people who, between brutal and gory human sacrifices, found time to supposedly determine that the world will end this year (even if they couldn't narrow it down to a specific month or year. However, they have eleven more months to be proven right!

Or maybe there are eleven more months to prove that the Mayan Calendar no more predicted the End of the World than my 2005 Art of Masamune Shirow Calendar did when it ran out of pages. And eleven more months to prove that those who believe otherwise are idiots.

Whatever the case ends up being, here's a song celebrating that the End of the World has been delayed by at least one month.
