Just caught Christina Aguilera's new MTV, "Fall In Line."
And yes, Demi Lovato is there, too.
Strangely, Christina looks very different. But her voice is undeniably the same.
Oh well, thing change, right?

Taylor Soft
"Delicate" - Taylor Swift's latest song, definitely lives up to its title.
She sounds so frail and calm in this ditty. Which is a nice departure after her series of fast, angsty ones.
Even the video has this sense of quietness, but without losing her Taylor quirk.
Well played, Taylor. Well played.

FMM: Horsefly
Back in 1997, Mariah was ruling the charts, churning out hit after hit after hit after hit. And her newly-launched album "Butterfly" was doing just that.
Just like the song, the music video was hotly anticipated. For good reason. Mariah had a way of coming up with visually stunning MTVs.
I still remember the first time I saw this video. It was in the studio of SMC, and we were editing the latest episode of SMC Newsbreak. One of the television sets was on the MTV channel, and the VJ announced the debut of Mariah's latest hit.
So, we stopped and watched.
Our first reaction was: "So, it's a song about a butterfly but the story is about a horse."
Mysteries never cease.

Directorial style
Being an avid watcher of music videos, there are times when I see an MTV and automatically think: "Haven't I seen this before?"
Usually, there's an element in that video that triggers a degree of deja vu. And oftentimes, it's because the director of those 2 videos turn out to be just one person.
I had that feeling of deja vu when I saw the latest MTV of Little Mix entitled "Power."
The first time I saw it, there was a strong sense of "I've definitely seen something like this before." And after a quick scan of my mental video bank, I remembered "Bang Bang" by Jessie J., Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj.
Naturally, I was tres intrigued and immediately googled.
My hunch was correct. They're both directed by the same woman, Hannah Lux Davis.
I like her visual style. I should look for her other videos.
