When Obama endorsed same-sex marriage…
Genius
It took me forever, but I have finally written up a list of my top 40 fave songs of all time. It was meant to be a top 10, but things got a little out of hand. I will be blogging one of these a day, in no particular order. I begin with the absolute genius that is George Michael’s Fast Love. I think I must have a soft spot for amazing dance tunes with heartbreaking lyrics. It’s like you can boogie away the pain or something. Really, it’s about loneliness. He breaks it down in the bridge:
I think every broken hearted person has been in this situation at some point or another, if not quite so graphically. It’s a dark place. This week I produced the video for new Mikill Pane/Ursa Minor (Little Bear) track Cutback/Fast Forward, in East London. Shooting took 13 hours, should be edited within a month. It was a fun day but a very cold one! You can listen to the track here. I personally learnt tonnes during the pre production for this shoot. It was also my first London shoot which presented a few unexpected challenges. It was the 5th shoot I have produced with Gaika Tavares directing, and this time I brought in Kate Bannister as camera op, and David Davies as DOP, both of whom did an amazing job. I can’t wait to see it finished!
