Weekly Music Video

Today's video is Gimme by American singer BANKS. It's her latest single and came out on 29th April. It's been ages since she released anything so I was excited to hear new BANKS music! In fact her last single was Underdog in September 2017, although she did also work with rapper 6LACK on the song In Between, so I should say last solo release! I haven't heard In Between; will check it out.

Gimme is one of my current favourite songs (recently bought it on iTunes). It's similar to her other music, so if you're a fan you should like it.  This is an audio but if a music video is made, I'll update the post. :)



BANKS is set to release an album this year. Her last album was 2016's The Altar so it's been a while! Her past two albums were released in September, so perhaps it will be this Sept? I'll keep you posted about news of the new one. :)

Update 24/5/19: The official video for Gimme just premiered last night! Here it is:


2nd update of the day: BANKS' new album III is due out in July! Looking forward to that. :) Read about it here: https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop/8512881/banks-iii-new-album-interview

P.S. I watched Eurovision on Saturday. The winner was The Netherlands' Duncan Laurence with Arcade. I thought it was fairly good and it stuck in my head! Obviously many people liked it best but my favourite was Albania and I voted for them again, like in the 2nd Semi-Final. They came 18th. The UK did badly, coming bottom. Poor Michael Rice! :( I didn't think the song was the greatest to be honest (no offence meant), but at least he gave it a good effort. :)

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),
