I wanted to do something related (even tangentially) to the KCAs today, but there’s nothing on my backlog that’s really fitting. Instead, let’s enjoy something from Canada. Contrary to what I thought when I first heard her stagename, Lights is not a band, but just this one girl who doesn’t answer to her real name. This track’s called “Second Go”, and in the video Lights goes through this pure white set splattering paint everywhere, even on herself quite a bit. Her face doesn’t get especially messy, but it’s a very cute video nonetheless.
I don’t know what it is about Canadian singers and musicians, but with a couple of exceptions (Justin Bieber and Celine Dion, for instance) I can find myself listening to music I wouldn’t usually be into. Not really into prog, but I like Rush. Apathetic towards bubblegum pop, like Carly Rae Jepsen (well, the two singles that actually caught on anyway). In this case I’m not big on electronic music, but I like this track and some of the other Lights songs I’ve heard.
It’s either that, or the fact that most of the videos that end up on here are for songs by electronic music acts. I do wish that Epica, Cradle of Filth and Arch Enemy were the rules rather than the exceptions some days…
