my own personal little mtv lipsynching new wave drama queen night:
i only put this many pictures because i want to give you a better sense of movement.

ok, i'm having my own little emotional personal poseur new wave drama queen night.
screwing around with my little video cam, trying to make videos...
slightly drunk, and i don't know the words to the coldplay song but i love it all the same.
just kill me for being such a poseur. i don't care.
you know you've done it , too.


coldplay's "clocks"

lene lovich's "new toy" avi
(videos taken down to save for my server storage space, you have to get them on the day this anagram was made)

you just YOU try to hold a little video camera, dancing to the music, trying to look not at the little video cameras lense but into the lens of the video camera you are pointing your video camera at. then look up every once in awhile to try to see the lyrics you cut and pasted into notebook. do this while slightly drunk and being a contortionist on the ground with dogs in your hair. you trying to look into the viewfinder of your little cam to make sure it is pointed at the viewfinder of the other cam. but you can't be looking at that because you need to be looking into the LENSE (not the viewfinder) of the OTHER cam..the cam you are pointing your video cam at. but look at the lyrics once in awhile to keep your place...the lyrics on the computer way over there that you can't see well because there is a light in your face.
make sure you're makeup is good and the lighting is ok and try to remember the lyrics...but u can't.
and do it all with FEELING now.
and then after a billion takes give up and put this up for all of you to see at 7am while all the buses take everyone to work.

Coldplay
Clocks

Lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
You've put me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead (singing)
Come out of things unsaid, shoot an apple of my head (and a)
Trouble that can't be named, tigers waiting to be tamed (singing)
You are, you are

Confusion never stops, closing walls and ticking clocks (gonna)
Come back and take you home, I could not stop, that you now know (singing)
Come out upon my seas, curse missed opportunities (am I)
A part of the cure, or am I part of the disease (singing)

You are [x6]
And nothing else compares
Oh no nothing else compares
And nothing else compares

You are [continues in background]
Home, home, where I wanted to go [x4]

New Toy
Did I ask you for your love?
Did I ask you for your dedication?
I don't want, I don't want your love.
I don't want, I don't want your affection!
But I've got to have the car
I need it for the weekend.
I've got to have the stereo,
And a couple of deletions
I've got to have the freezer
Put some fun back in my eating (?)
I've got to have it all until I'm complete!

I want a New Toy (oh ay oh), to keep my head expanding (ta).
I want a New Toy (oh ay oh), nothing too demanding (ta).
Then when everything is in roses everything is static (ta)
Yeh my New Toy (oh ay oh), you'll find us in the attic.

You.. Sometimes you make me feel... I feel so insecure.
Sometimes you make me feel... nothing at all
I'm sick of the TV
Well look at the news
I'm sick of the radio
But what can you do?
I'm sick of the Hoover
????
I'm sick of it all, so what can I do?

I get a New Toy (oh ay oh), to keep my head expanding (ta).
I get a New Toy (oh ay oh), nothing too demanding (ta).
Then when everything is in roses you don't get any headroom.
Yeh my New Toy (oh ay oh), you'll find us in the bedroom, yeh.
New Toy
New toy...

(and how weird is it that this is now used in a commercial for target? it freaks em out, i tell ya!)
