Valentine's Vibes!

It's Valentine's Day, so today's post is love themed! Here is a round-up of some previous posts on the blog relating to love and romance, plus a couple of  songs I haven't posted. (Not every single post featuring a love song because there would be too many!) lol. :)

 

My Favourite Love Songs 

Back in 2022, I wrote a post just before Valentine's Day featuring my favourite love songs. You can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2022/02/my-favourite-love-songs.html

 

Coco Jones- On Sight

American singer Coco Jones released the single On Sight in April last year. It's a smooth R'n'B song, with a music video that sees Coco become fixated on potential love interests!

It was a Weekly Music Video in May 2025: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2025/05/weekly-music-video_21.html

 

LONA- VÃŒ YÊU ANH ( Dance Version)

In April 2024 I included Vietnamese singer LONA's single Vì Yêu Anh (Dance Version) in my V-pop Music and Dance 2023-2024 round-up post. The Dance Version was released in December 2023 and there's also a White Valentine Version and a Chill (karaoke) version, which came out in March and May 2024 respectively.

The title translates as "Because I Love You" in English and I think it's about being in love with someone who doesn't feel as strongly about you. I used Google Translate, so if you're a Vietnamese speaker, please let me know if that's right! :)  

Visit my V-pop Music and Dance post to see the Vì Yêu Anh (Dance Version) music video (which has scenes of LONA wearing "Valentine's red" outfits!), plus more music from LONA: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2024/04/v-pop-music-and-dance.html

 

LONA-  VÃŒ YÊU ANH (White Valentine version)

And here is the video for the White Valentine version. It's an audio. This is slower and softer than the dance version.

 


And here is the audio for VÃŒ YÊU ANH (KARAOKE VERSION):  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bu-aPYUSOZI 

 

Also check out the V-pop Music and Dance 2023-2024 post for another cover of the song, performed by LONA and Vietnamese model  PhÆ°Æ¡ng Nhi (scroll down to the Dance section).


BIGDADDY x EMILY- YÊU NẮM 

In the same post I also featured by YÊU NẮM by real life Vietnamese celebrity couple, rapper BigDaddy (real name Tran Tat Vu) and singer Emily (Emily Nguyen/Nguyen Huong Ly). It was released on Valentine's Day 2024 (with the video premiering a day before). I think the title is "Love Hold" or "Holding Love" in English.

There's an R'n'B version too (see below). I think this one is more pop/dance.

Visit the post to see it:  https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2024/04/v-pop-music-and-dance.html


BIGDADDY x EMILY- YÊU NẮM (R&B Version)

And here is the R'n'B version. It was produced by Vietnamese music producer and singer Machiot  and released on 23rd February 2024.

 

 

Plus, check out my Dance in Public- V-pop and P-pop Videos post to see a dance cover of YÊU NẮM by Vietnamese dance group Phenikaa Art Club: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2024/06/dance-in-public-v-pop-and-p-pop-videos.html

 

Majid Jordan- Violet

I first heard Violet by Canadian duo Majid Jordan (made up of Majid Al Maskati and Jordan Ullman) in  2024. It's from their 4th studio album Good People / Afterhours which was released in November 2023. My favourite song from the album is Hands Tied and I featured it as a Weekly Music Video in January 2024.

I also like Violet (I  bought both Hands Tied and Violet on iTunes 2 years ago) and thought it would be good to include in this post! It was the 3rd single from the album (following Waiting for You featuring Caribbean/Dutch singer Naomi Sharon and Hands Tied) and was released in October 2023.

Violet is a chilled R'n'B track with romantic vibes! It's a long song too, at 7 minutes, 20 seconds. This is the official lyric video.

 

 

Tobii- Saxo Love

Finally, here is Saxo Love by Swiss/Thai rapper and R'n'B singer Tobii, which was released last June. Much like his 204 single X mas Love fits the festive season, this one is good for Valentine's Day!

It's a sexy song with a mix of Thai and English lyrics. Click "Subtitles/closed captions" on YouTube for English subtitles! :) 

Please note that the lyrics are quite explicit in a "suggestive" way.  

 


Also check my Dance Videos Round-up 2025 post to see a dance cover of Saxo Love by Aeternum from Spain: https://starsparklex.blogspot.co /2025/12/dance-videos-round-up-2025.html

 

Hope you enjoyed the post! :) Happy Valentine's Day (whether you're in a relationship or single)! 💓Or Happy Valentine's Day for yesterday, depending on your time zone.

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), ...

South Indian Videos

I've written several Bollywood posts this year but I don't feature South Indian music/films as much. So today I'm sharing some music and dance videos from Tollywood ( the Telugu language film industry) and Kollywood (the Tamil language film industry). :) Oo Antava Mawa- Pushpa- Dance Cover by Sonali First up is a dance cover of the song Oo Antava Mawa..Oo Oo Antava from the 2021 Tollywood film Pushpa: The Rise- Part 1 . I previously featured a dance cover of Oo Antava Mawa in a Dance Videos post in August last year. That one is by Rang De and you can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/08/dance-videos.html This cover is by Indian choreographer Sonali Bhaduria, from LiveToDance with Sonali and was uploaded in January 2022. It's a shorter video.   For more on Pushpa and to watch the official Oo Antava Mawa video, check out my Tollywood Videos Round-up 2 post from September 2023: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/09/tollywood-videos-round-up-2.html ...

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...
