Now after seeing a brief video with Scarlett Rabe, you get to see her music video “Battle Cry”. With Scarlett April and I disagree on how we feel about “Battle Cry”. Here are April’s thoughts.
The openning of “Battle Cry” was really cool, I appreciate a hard bass. I was taken aback when she started singing and am still not sure if I liked it. I enjoyed the chorus of the song alright but I’m afraid that’s all. The song was alright, I didn’t reslly get anything special out of it and probably won’t go back to the song on my own.
Here is one for the animation fans and especially the Lego fans out there. The Lego Movie looks to be a fun family movie. Come on admit it the Lego characters are cute. Thanks to “CBM Trailers” on YouTube for the following trailer:
Vampire Academy has been a very popular series for Richelle Mead. Know we get to see her world on the big screen. From the trailer it actually looks to be a fun movie. Thanks to “MOVIECLIPS Trailers” on YouTube for the following trailer:
For those that don’t know of Scarlett Rabe, she started out as a piano prodigy at the age of 3. She has millions of FaceBook fans and has turned her attention to being a singer/songwriter. Below is a small clip that Scarlett did talking about herself. Come back tomorrow to hear and see her music video “Battle Cry”.
The vocals of “I Am the River” immediately draw you into the song and keeps you there. The beginning isn’t very busy and I appreciate the simplicity. Even after the drop the instrumentals complimented the vocals, rather than overpowering them. I found myself putting the song on repeat and really feeling the song. Everything in the song had a purpose and I could hear the truth of the song from how it was done.
Jessica Childress
Don’t Forget My Name
4 February 2014
I love the smooth quality of Jessica’s music. The music gives off a smooth jazz feel that I could never get tired of. Jessica herself can definitely sing. She’s got a lower range that she can sing to no end. She’s unique in her own way and doesn’t sound to gruff and scratchy. I can easily see her performing in an after hours club with smoke in the air. I’ll definitely come back to her music and you should to if you have a soft spot for jazz.
This movie looks really interesting. You could call these men the true life Indiana Jones from World War II. Thanks to “Fresh Movie Trailers” on YouTube for the following trailer:
