Interpretation: Miguel - Candles In The Sun

A review. An interpretation.


"There's no separation, we're all one. Right?"

John Lennon (1980)

Just a few days ago Grammy Award winner Miguel released the music video for his upcoming single "Candles In The Sun". The recording is part of his 2012 released album Kaleidoscope Dream.

The song and the video are very critical of the US government and religious institutions. His lyrics express various fears on the current situation of human kind, which are additionally emphasised by the strong images in the video. It asks for self-reflection and encourages thinking about "us". The video is absolutely impressive and together with the message-loaded lyrics it cried out for a review.

#TeamParis: The Magic of the Eiffel Tower

And out of nowhere I was obsessed with the Eiffel Tower

I have never been to Paris - but La Tour Eiffel has something very special about it that is hard to explain. 

The Devil Wears Cheese: How Healthy is Pizza?

 I love Pizza.

Man of my dreams vs. pizza? I'd surely go with the pizza. Yes, it can make you fat if you eat a lot of them. Although, a pizza every once in a while has never hurt anyone. The opposite, they make happy. 

First of all, the only thing you have to do is to get "her" out of the freezer, unwrap her, and put her in the oven. Simple as that.

Next Generation of Female Rappers: Werkin' Girls

It seems like female rap superstar Nicki Minaj smoothed the ways for the next generation of women in the hip hop industry. Sure, women always had a place in the business (Missy Elliott, Foxy Brown, Lil'Kim, etc.), but it has been quiet for a while. The picture above shows some of these hard werkin' girls [pron.: /wɜː(ɹ)kɪŋ].

Chanel, My Love

"Simplicity is the keynote of all true elegance."

And CHANEL is the embodiment of elegance.

Although Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel worked very hard to keep her business going since she founded it in 1909, I am sure she wasn't expecting her brand to be a consistent name in the fashion industry until the present day. Here we are, girls and women addicted to fashion and all we want is a Chanel 2.55 bag, named after her launch date - February 1955.

Waterfalls

"Don't go chasing waterfalls,
please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to..."

Little precious has a natural obsession for temptation, but he just can't see. However, I guess not only little precious is tempted at times. But should we chase or stick to the rivers that we're used to?
