5.3.12 - New Music - Cheryl Cole

This post is about Cheryl Cole. I don’t want to get too into Cheryl Cole right now (I’ll write about her later in more depth for those interested). Basically, Cheryl Cole is a big deal in the UK. Like, a BIG deal. She almost kinda was in the US, but then wasn’t.

Anyways, there has been a LOT of buzz about her new single “Call My Name”, which was just released. The song is produced by Calvin Harris, who is quite possibly the most sought-after producer in the world at this moment. He worked with her on the lead single from her third album (out in June), and she made it her own.

Not only is the song out, but the video is already out to match. Let’s watch.

The song is good. The production is better. Calvin Harris might not be the most original right now in terms of music (but hey, if it ain’t broke, why fix it?), but he kills it every time. This is sure to be a massive success in the UK if not also on the US dance charts.

Anyways, I have some thoughts about the video. Please see my funny comments below.

It seems every time I write about a video I mention the shoes. I guess there are just a lot of really great shoes out there.

The man who designed this blazer is named Altuzarra. I am really impressed that I was able to identify the designer of the jacket just by the patter on it (his own pattern), and so I had to share it with you all. Altuzarra won the coveted CFDA award this past year, and he is an amazingly talented designer. I found the blazer on his website:

Well, I’d say that this is a grade A song and video (not an A+, but anyone who gets that on both song and video is an overachiever and we hate them so there).
