Weekly Music Video

This week's video is Espresso by Bulgarian Russian singer Kristian Kostov (who represented Bulgaria in the 2017 Eurovision Song Contest).

Espresso is Kris' latest single and came out on 30th April. This is an audio. I like the gently, poppy vibe of the song.

P.S. Speaking of Eurovision, Switzerland's Nemo won this year's contest with the song The Code. The UK got 46 points from the jury but zero points from the public. I don't think our song was that great but Olly tried, and I don't think any one deserves no points. The UK didn't actually come last (we came 18th out of 25), but people are acting like we did because of the public vote! It's just frustrating and I think people could be a bit kinder.

Anyway, my favourite was Cyprus (I voted for them again, like in the first semi-final) and second favourite was Greece. I hope that next year the UK has a better song and that they let us choose it, like in the past. If we bother entering again (not sure if it's worth it but I would still watch regardless!). Or perhaps (like someone suggested in a comment), there should be no Big 5" and everyone has to earn their place in the final.

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),
