I was invited to a Pentatonix concert by a friend who had free tickets to see them a couple of weeks ago. None of us knew their music though I had heard of them, and it was a nice show. However, what caught my attention was one of their opening acts, Echosmith.
They performed a so-far unreleased song called Diamonds In A Sea Of Pearls, here are two videos of them performing it in different locations. I really hope they release it on their next album. Echosmith - Diamonds In A Sea Of Pearls |

It was pretty catchy, but I didn't pay too much attention to it. However that song above I thought was really good

Michael Jackson - Who Is It One of my favorite MJ songs, from what is probably my favorite album of his, Dangerous. The music video (or short film) was originally not allowed to be played in the US. I suppose in the 90's it was a big no-no to portray prostitution on TV. Of course, nowadays you see all sorts of things. I may have talked about the story of the music video before, but I've been thinking about it a lot recently and I wanted a place to vent. The Wikipedia article summarizes the story thus: Quote:
Quote:
1. The texts I quoted above suggest that Michael is not originally aware of her job or her "infidelity." That interpretation might have more to do with the lyrics of the song than the actual film. The lyrics to a Michael Jackson song don't necessarily dictate what the short film ends up looking like. Nothing in the lyrics of Smooth Criminal suggest a 1930's nightclub filled with gangsters being surrounded by military troops. So I don't think the film for Who Is It is strictly about infidelity. 2. In the film, the call girl has multiple megarich clients that she visits. Michael then is seen to be in possession of her Alex calling card and supposedly it means he thinks there's another man named Alex or has discovered her profession. I might buy this if the film portrayed MJ as a middle or lower class guy. But he has a penthouse, an assistant, a limousine, mansion 1, a helicopter, a private jet, and mansion 2. How did he meet her in the first place? He fits the profile of all her other clients. My theory is that he IS one of her clients. They fell in love, and MJ asked her to run away with him. She refused, and MJ is heartbroken. By the end of the film, she has a change of heart but he's already gone, leaving her no choice but to return to her employers. 3. Towards the end of the film, MJ's assistant dismisses her at the gate to mansion 1 because MJ has left. He tosses out a bunch of her calling card identities, (Alex, Diana, Eve, etc.) which once again, suggests to me that MJ has seen her multiple times, as one of her clients. With the amount of money that she makes her employers, the operation's level of sophistication, and their furious expressions when she returns to work for them, I doubt she had much freedom to explore a relationship with someone. How did she have time to be with him when they prep her almost immediately between clients? He had to have been one of her regulars to be able to form a connection. One of these days, I might try and tweet David Fincher or someone involved in the making of the film to ask about this theory. It's unfortunate that I can't discuss this with the King Of Pop himself. |
