Weekly Music Video

Today's video is Youngblood by 5 Seconds of Summer. They are an Australian band consisting of 4 members. The group was formed by schoolfriends Luke Hemmings, Calum Hood and Michael Clifford in 2011. They started out by posting cover songs on YouTube and were joined by Ashton Irwin at the end of 2011, who they found through Facebook.

5 Seconds of Summer (or 5SOS) signed a deal with Sony ATV Music Publishing, then  released their first original song Gotta Get Out  and debut EP Unplugged in June 2012. Debut single She Looks So Perfect  came out in 2014, followed by their self titled debut album in the summer 2014. To date 5SOS have released 7 EPs-  including their debut, Somewhere New (2012), She Looks So Perfect (2014), Good Girls (2014) and She's Kinda Hot (2015); and 3 studio albums- 5 Seconds of Summer, Sounds Good Feels Good (2015) and their latest Youngblood. Their singles include Out of My Limit, She looks So Perfect, Don't Stop, Good Girl, She's Kinda Hot, Girls Talk Boys, Want You Back and Youngblood.

Youngblood is the second single from the album of the same name, which came out on 15th June. The single  was released in April but I've only seen the video on UK TV this month. In May it became the band's 2nd No 1 in Australia (the first was She Looks So Perfect). I haven't liked their other songs that much, but I like this one. :)




Update 18/8/18: There's now another music video called Official Video (the other one is called Alt Version) that was uploaded on 2nd August. Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RJSbO8UZVY

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences. The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the D

New Unexpected

We're finally getting the new season of the reality TV series Unexpected in the UK! Season 3 was shown in the US last summer , and I wondered when we'd get it here. I don't have any online streaming services so thought I'd just watch clips on YouTube, lol. However it's now starting here in early March. Similar to the popular MTV franchise Teen Mom , Unexpected focuses on teen parents. The first series featured 3 couples expecting babies- Lily Bennett and her boyfriend James Kennedy who have daughter Aaliyah, now 2;  Mckayla Adkins and partner Caelan Morrison who have son Timothy, also known as Timmy (and now daughter Gracelynn , born in January 2019), and  Lexus Scheller and boyfriend Shayden Massey who have daughter Scarlett. Season 2 saw the departure of Lilly and the addition of 3 new pregnant girls and their partners- Laura Barron and her boyfriend (now husband) Tylor Stawmyor who have son Lucas (and have since had another baby , a 2nd son, who is named Leo),
