“Superheroes” Tribute Video

I really love “Superheroes” by The Script, but I love this tribute video even more.  The Journey Master YouTube channel has taken the single and edited it together with different scenes from a variety of Marvel and DC movies.  The editing is really well done and I think all of you, if you haven’t seen it will enjoy it.  So here’s “Superheroes” by The Script Tribute Video from Journey Master’s channel – Richard:

Bianca Rose’s Music Video for “Because of Love”

Bianca Rose is sharing with the ComicPop listeners her single “Because of Love”, that features Cellist Ayanna Witter-Johnson.  “Because of Love” is a romantic ballad that steers you through love and when the Cello comes in it brings the single to a new height.  I would love to just have Bianca and Ayanna do an acoustic version of this song with just the two women and that is it, I think it would be beautiful.  The music video is directed with a classic clean look from the director.  Here’s Bianca Rose’s music video for “Because of Love” featuring Ayanna Witter-Johnson through Bianca’s YouTube channel – Richard:

They Call Him Zone’s Music Video for “Just Fall”

They Call Him Zone is sharing with us his music video for the single “Just Fall’.  The single is from his upcoming Crow Swan Wolf album that is scheduled to release on February 20.  “Just Fall” is an electro/rock/pop single, with the music video following suit in style.  The rhythms of the single and the voice and way They Call Him Zone sang reminded me a lot of Billy Idol’s music.  So if you are a fan of Idol this will be right up your alley.  Here’s They Call Him Zone’s music video for “Just Fall” through his YouTube channel – Richard:

The Captain’s Son Releases “Walking Around Purposely”

The Captain’s Son is sharing with our listeners their single “Walking Around Purposely”. from their self-titled EP.  This single harkens back to some old school rock/pop sound.  Think of the music back in the 1960’s/1970’s when you would have bands pop up from local garages and play in the high schools or clubs.  The trio capture that feel perfectly and I enjoyed the trip back to that time period for some fun music.  Here’s The Captain’s Son’s single “Walking Around Purposely” through SoundCloud and if you enjoy them make sure to support them through your download provider of choice – Richard:

People the Kangaroo Music Video for “The Death of You”

People The Kangaroo is sharing with our listeners their latest music video for the single “The Death of You”.  This single is pure electro/pop that has a fun rhythm to it.  The vocals blend in with the instrumentals, but the vocals hover just enough above that you can still enjoy them.  The music video is the group and director having fun with reversing the camera shots and making a mess of everything.  I could see this one in a dance club where everyone and the laser show dances to the beat.  Check out People The Kangaoo’s music video for the single “The Death of You”, from their YouTube channel – Richard

Remix of Tammy’s Single “Away for the Weekend”

Ester has done a remix of Tammy’s single “Away for the Weekend”.  We spotlighted Tammy’s single on a previous post and with this she is giving our listeners the opportunity to hear the remix.  The remix gives it some heavy bass beats that gives the single a feel of urgency.  If you liked the ballad feel of the first one it might take a bit to get used to the remix, but once you get the feel of the remix it flowed for me.  Like I said the remix gave it a faster pace with an urgency feel with the bass beats added.  See what you think of Ester’s remix of Tammy’s “Away for the Weekend” through SoundCloud – Richard:

Don DiLego’s Music Video for “Idiot Heart”

Today Don DiLego is treating our listeners to his music video for the folk/country ballad “Idiot Heart”.  This tune has a very somber tone to it, but it is delivered in a way that captures the listener.  Don’s voice fits the style really well and I am definitely interested in more from his album Magnificent Ram A that is available for purchase.  The way the lyrics translate for me is that it is about an individual that is unsure of him/her self in a relationship and ultimately the relationship falls apart, even though they don’t want it to.  The music video for the single is well made and gives the viewer a country home feel.  If you like what you hear be sure to look for Magnificent Ram A from your downloader of choice.  Until then here’s the music video for “Idiot Heart” from Don DiLego’s YouTube channel – Richard:
