I Want My Music Television vol. XXXVI


There have been a couple of videos that have caught my eye lately so I though I’d give them some love since the death of Musical Television left a void for a forum on the art form If you are interested in buying the video through iTunes, click the title link (where available, if not the link goes to YouTube where you can watch the video in full screen). If you are interested in buying the song, look for a link in the analysis.


Another Way to Die - Alicia Keys and Jack White



It is becoming clear that Alicia Keys should stay away from the rockers. Here duet with John Mayer was the weakest track on her last album, and this track is not much better. And as a James Bond theme this may rank near the bottom.


Where I Stood - Missy Higgins



There is an other, arguably better version of this video, released earlier this year but the song is worth showing again because the Missy Higgins song is one of my favorite of the year.


Troublemaker - Weezer



This decade, for the most part the music Weezer makes is vastly hit or miss, but their videos are always at the very least entertaining.


The Resolution - Jack's Mannequin



The first album from Jack's Mannequin was solid and if The Resolution is any indication, the new album, out this week, will be worth the listen.


It should also be noted that yesterday Kanye West released his video for Love Lockdown. I could not find an embed code anywhere but you can see it on his website Kanye Univerity or you can download Love Lockdown on iTunes.
