Today's Video Share: "Who Wants Take Out" by Elizabeth Moen
Elizabeth Moen shares a vibrant official music video for EP track “Who Wants Takeout?,” an earnest celebration of friendship and the essential whimsy it entails. Moen says, “There are certain friends that have the kind of energy that just makes the entire room feel calm. No pressure to be or do anything but sit and enjoy staring at a fan and doing nothing together. This song had no intentions other than being a playful, drony, homage to those pals I love.”

No crew, no director, just me chatting to strangers on the street, pre-pandemic."

Today's Video Share: "Quarantine Crazy" by Lauren St. James
Lauren St James is a British Pop Singer, Songwriter and Producer offering up fun, sassy and empowering songs that promise to get anyone out of a bad mood.
'Quarantine Crazy' is Lauren's 7th single and is a youthful, light-hearted yet extremely relatable song that offers up a millennial’s perspective on the COVID crisis and the every day struggles of living in lockdown. The vocal melodies and production are reminiscent of 90’s Pop/R&B, drawing influences from Timbaland, Destiny’s Child and Christina Aguilera to add to the youthful, millennial feel of the song.
In addition, the music video, that was made during the UK Lockdown by Lauren and her sister, was shot completely on Snapchat, moving in and out of the classic Snapchat Filters that took the world by storm, again adding to the modern yet homemade feel of the project. While the song is a lament of the unforeseen hardships faced in 2020, it also conveys a sense of community in the very real and relatable ways that the world faced the pandemic together.
Lauren is also donating all the proceeds from the song to the S2 Food Bank in Sheffield to help feed those affected by coronavirus in her local area.

Today's Video Share: "Between Us" by Michelle Rose
I co-wrote and recorded this song well before I had ever experienced a love relationship that was actually good. My song was based on what I thought a perfect relationship would look like. This past summer, I cast a handsome actor in one of my other music videos, and we began dating. It turned out that he actually does bring me roses on all of our dates, and he treats me like a queen! This video, which he and I planned and acted in together, highlights not just what my fantasy relationship would be like, but shows my life now imitating art. I hope you enjoy the video and the song!

Today's Video Share: "St. Patrick's Breastplate (Prayer of St. Patrick)" by Jean Watson
Making the video for “St. Patrick’s Breastplate” was one of the highlights of my life! The song itself is based on the ancient prayer of Saint Patrick from the fifth century A.D.. According to legend, Saint Patrick was facing enemies who were going to kill him but he prayed this prayer and was kept safe.
I never dreamed I would get to film a video for the song in Northern Ireland singing in some of the very places where Saint Patrick lived and worked! There is no green screen used in this production - I am actually singing on location!
The videographer heard the song and pictured a medieval sword fight. Fortunately. He knew some professional sword fighters who worked on the set of the Game of Thrones television show. So we hired them and staged a sword fight!
The final scene in front of Dunluce Castle was very moving for me. It had been raining and dreary, but just before I sang the sun burst out from behind the castle. There wasn’t a dry eye behind the camera that day!

This is a special video of archive footage. It reminds me of my loved ones and I hope it reminds the listeners of their loved ones.
Today's Video Share: "To The One" by Haley Montgomery
This video was so much fun to make. It’s one of the most celebratory songs I’ve ever put out and honestly, singing it, dancing to it, has helped me feel a lot of much needed joy the last couple years. I loved the “gorilla street team” approach and vibe of this video. All shot on an iPhone, by my friend JB Verances, at some of my favorite local shops in San Diego (main feat. atypical waffles) - we truly came at this video wanting to champion the beauty of local community and art in SD. I put the word out to my fans and friends, and wow... all kinds of people showed up that day - ready to dance to my song. One of my favorite memories so far. Here is “TO THE ONE” of my latest release Confessions.
