Song of the Moment XX: Spice Girls’ “Stop”

Hi, everyone. Before I start this 200th post on The Diary (and the 20th Song of the Moment post), I need to explain something: Once again, I didn’t update The Diary on a Wednesday. Why? Because I was too sad to talk about anything. Hell, I don’t feel like finishing my post about my lowest point ever. I just wanted to do other things like running on the treadmill, lifting weights, rest for several hours, and spending time with my family… and I did all of those things and it made me feel better. To top it all off, I also watched several movies from the British action comedy Hot Fuzz (for the nth time) to the remake of the action flick Road House.

Now that I feel better, I will post something this weekend – probably on Sunday.

Anyway, what is my Song of the Moment right now? It’s my favorite Spice Girls song next to “Too Much” – “Stop”. Thank you very much, my favorite girl group, for cheering me up. Now, let me do the chorus dance in my room.

That is all.

Song of the Moment XVII: Zedd’s “Clarity” (feat. Foxes)

Lately, I have been listening to “Clarity” (a Grammy Award-winning dance-pop/EDM song by Russian/German DJ Zedd that features British pop singer Foxes) on repeat, and initially, I don’t know why. (Pun intended.) But the more I listen to it, I realize that I… miss someone? Whatever. What I do know is that Foxes’ vocals on the song (most notably, the chorus) are so full of emotion that I can visualize her singing with all of her heart as Zedd delivers the sick instrumentals. And the entire lyrics scream what my heart wants to scream right now. Great job, Mr. Zedd and Ms. Foxes!

If our love is tragedy
Why are you my remedy?
If our love’s insanity
Why are you my clarity?

Also, I saw the music video for “Clarity” just now. I am 11 years too late to the party. Oops. But anyway, I love the video – specifically, I love the parts where Foxes is singing and all the VFX objects breaking and clashing with one another. That video, just like the song, totally earned my thumbs-up.
